Abstract

Abstract:

Using online survey and literature research methods, we first sort out the background of the definition of smart data; then analyze the current status of the concept in the three dimensions of attributes, values and methods; finally, we conduct an in-depth discussion on the main differences and existing dilemmas in the definition of smart data, and in conjunction with the current development trend, we look forward to the prospect of its future application.

Key words: smart data, big data, digital governance, definition of terms
