Sažetak

Data is considered self-explanatory as part of daily life, but behind it in the electronic and digital world lies complex relationships. Data defined as information written in binary digits is far from the usual definition and as such is certainly inaccessible to direkta human experience. The data thus defined can be viewed in the DIKW dual role hierarchy as they mediate between analogue and digital and the real world. Sharma's observation is that the fields of information science and knowledge management speak of the DIKW hierarchy but do not refer to one another developed in a two-way hierarchy in the DIKW hierarchy, is ascending when it comes to cognitive activity and a descending hierarchy to knowledge-driven activity. The predefined inaccessibility of the immediate experience that follows from the relationship to data as a new approach to the information science world has implications for the way knowledge is acquired and created, and determines the role and place of information science in a knowledge-based society.
