The final research data (or dataset) is a collection of final version of data that exits during the last stage in the data lifecycle in which all re-workings and manipulations of the data by the researcher have ceased. (Source: NTU Research Data Policy Section 4.C)

It is the final version of raw data used to establish and validate research findings—the underlying raw data behind the tables/charts/figures in your published papers. 

A simple example is: the tabular files (csv, excel files) of columns of numbers that are used to generate charts in a published paper, and can be reused by others to reproduce the same charts on their own computers using the same software.
