我的智能手机已成为不断的伴侣。我检查我的工作电子邮件；我和我的孩子们在一起；我在Twitter上分享更新。当我环顾手机上的其他所有人时，我知道我并不孤单。最近，我读到，作为一个全球社会，我们正在生产2.5 quintillion bytes of data – daily。那里有很多信息，但是它是真正的信息还是仅仅是数据？不了解，这是后者。只有在我们可以巧妙地使用它的情况下，数据才会成为信息。在数字化世界中使用智能数据是此版本的记者的重点。

Data becomes information, is made smart, when we can see risks and take actions to prevent accidents. When new construction projects take place in the heart of major urban centres, monitoring of critical infrastructure then requires day-and-night observations. As the Regent’s Park Development in London sees the demolishment, excavation and construction of buildings, Murphy Surveys has merged several Geosystems technologies to keep a close eye on surrounding structures. With the sensors collecting all possible data and monitoring software processing the large quantities the full-service surveying and monitoring firm is constantly updated and in the know if any possible deformations or unacceptable movements occur.

An image becomes smart and informative when we can see the whole picture. In creating Smart Cities, this means getting the foundation right by capturing every building, every tree, every infrastructure. In creating 3D city models, vast amounts of data must be collected and then processed intelligently, efficiently and effectively. When mapping dense urban populations in the United States and France, Fugro and APEI, respectively, used Geosystems airborne sensors and workflow software. These solutions ensured smart and manageable data could be used to build digital cities for smart city planning.

点云仅是原始数据，直到我们能够在其中移动并了解它们超出要点的内容。在建筑，工程和建筑业（AEC）行业中，根据建筑阶段的早期确定任何错误，可以通过确定任何错误来防止昂贵的返工。当美国麦克斯韦建筑公司在餐厅建设项目中使用其新的BLK360成像激光扫描仪时，该公司能够收集到使用手动方法所花费的一半时间的数据量的10倍。随着在AutoCAD中处理的收集数据，Maxwell Construction在倒入混凝土之前迅速校正了放错地方的管道，以节省大量成本和时间。

In our digitalised world, big data is no longer the focus. The evolution to smart data is how businesses will grow and advance. We are committed to bringing not just more data but smart information to our customers and the industries they support.
