+# Room occupancy data
+
+Dataset on detecting room occupancy based on several variables. For our 
+dataset we use the Temperature, Humidity, Light, and CO2 variables from the 
+training dataset.
+
+This dataset is obtained from the [UCI 
+repository](https://archive.ics.uci.edu/ml/datasets/Occupancy+Detection+)
+on 2019-06-10. As it is unclear whether the data can be redistributed as part 
+of this repository, we download it locally instead.
+
+The data is sampled at every 16 observations to reduce the length of the 
+series.
+
+When using this particular time series, please cite:
