Oversampled describes data or a group that has been sampled at a higher rate than its natural proportion would suggest.

In statistics and research, certain populations are deliberately oversampled to ensure enough responses for meaningful analysis: The survey oversampled rural households to capture regional differences.

In audio engineering, oversampling means recording at a higher frequency than technically necessary to improve quality or reduce distortion.
