In database terminology, cardinality is the total number of unique occurrences of an entity (e g person, organization, or transaction) that can participate in a relationship An extremely high cardinality field would be a Web site address, e-mail address or phone number; in fact, these should be unique A high cardinality field would be street address - not unique, but close - there may be more than one "1234 Morningside Drive" in a particular State or in the US A low cardinality field would be State - only 52 variations, including DC and "unknown" An extremely low cardinality field would be a check box - only two variations
The number of different values a categorical predictor or OLAP dimension can have High cardinality predictors and dimensions have large numbers of different values (e g zip codes), low cardinality fields have few different values (e g eye color)
