variable through time. The use of this method requires a long and reliable time series data. The trend projection method is used under the assumption that the factors responsible for the past trends in variables to be projected (e.g. sales and demand) will continue to play their part in future in the same manner and to the same extend as they did in the past in determining the magnitude and direction of the variable. There are three (3) techniques of trend projection based on time – series data.

Both might refer to formal statistical methods employing time series‚ cross-sectional or longitudinal data‚ or alternatively to less formal judgemental methods. Usage can differ between areas of application: for example‚ in hydrology‚ the terms "forecast" and "forecasting" are sometimes reserved for estimates of values at certain specific future times‚ while the term "prediction" is used for more general estimates‚ such as the number of times floods will occur over a long period.
