Data represents a fact or statement of event without relation to other things.in fig(1)

Ex: It is raining.
Information embodies the understanding of a relationship of some sort, possibly cause and effect.

Ex: The temperature dropped 15 degrees and then it started raining.


Knowledge represents a pattern that connects and generally provides a high level of predictability
as to what is described or what will happen next.

Ex: If the humidity is very high and the temperature drops substantially the
atmospheres is often unlikely to be able to hold the moisture so it rains.
Wisdom embodies more of an understanding of fundamental principles embodied within the
knowledge that are essentially the basis for the knowledge being what it is. Wisdom is essentially
systemic.

Ex: It rains because it rains. And this encompasses an understanding of all the
interactions that happen between raining, evaporation, air currents,
temperature gradients, changes, and raining
