multivariate data
Data collected on several variables for each sampling unit. For example, if we collect information on weight (w), height (h), and shoe size (s) from each of a random sample of individuals, then we would refer to the triples (w1, h1, s1), (w2, h2, s2),...as a set of multivariate data.
