Big data refers to large and complex data sets that cannot be analyzed using traditional data processing applications. Census information is a classic example of big data, as it involves an enormous amount of data that needs to be processed and analyzed by researchers. The other options are not likely to involve big data as they involve smaller and/or more specific data sets.
