A data compression and restoration method and an apparatus for realizing same, by which, when identical data patterns appear successively in data information, which may be recorded in a magnetic tape, etc., the data patterns are subjected to a compression operation, the data thus compressed is recorded, and it is restored at the reproduction. When the data patterns appear successively, they are compressed, and the data patterns generated by the compression are subjected to a second compression, after they have been rearranged for the purpose of the second compression. In this way it is possible to record data significantly compressed.
