Using time series data

Post by Negin »

Hello,

I'm using Vensim DSS. In my model, the time horizon is from 1987 to 2030. I would like to use time series data for some constant variables. However, I just have historical data from 1987 to 2011 and I don't have the forecasted data. Is it possible to simulate until 2030 by using this amount of data?

Thank you.

Can you please fill in a valid email address in your profile that matches the licence.

You could use the historical data and then forecast for 2011 onwards. If you are using data, then it's not simulated anyway so I don't really understand what you are asking.
