Data is the result of research undertaken by a survey or study. It is usually presented in digital form in datasets. The data can be analysed or queried by using programmes such as Excel or SPSS to produce statistics on various phenomena. So a dataset will contain multiple lines relating to individual responses, and statistics will summarise that data and tell you (for instance) how many people use the bus to go to work or cycle to work. The Census is a good example of this. Data is the primary source of the information and statistics answer questions (i.e. how many, when, etc.) by interrogating the data.
