For the first dataset, the researchers obtained information from the British Department of Transport regarding the traffic flows between junctions 7 to 8 and junctions 9 to 10 of the M25 motorway. They collected the numbers of shoppers in nine different supermarkets in southeast England for the second dataset. The third dataset contains numbers of emergency admissions to hospitals due to transport accidents.
We present the three datasets in a combined format, with the variable "Dataset" as an identifier that may be used to separate them.
