Knowledge Creation. The terms “data”, “information”, “knowledge” and “understanding” can be placed in a hierarchical framework to describe the process of health statistics and PHR activities which starts “with basic data, facts, and other observations, moves through the compilation of data within a context; continues with the analysis of observations for possible associations; and concludes with the development and testing of hypotheses, ultimately resulting in theories and laws about how things work.” (Xxxxxxxx/Xxxxxxx XX/Xxxxxxxxx/Xxxxxxx 2005: 246). “Data” can be defined as numerical and nonnumerical elemental facts representing objects, events and properties. Following Xxxxxxx (1996, 28-29), “[i]nformation is contained in descriptions, in answers to questions that begin with such words as who, what, where, when, and how many. Information is usable in deciding what to do, not how to do it. ... Answers to how-to questions constitute knowledge. ... Knowledge is contained in instructions. Knowledge consists of know-how, for example, knowing how a system works or how to make it work in a desired way. It makes maintenance and control of objects, systems, and events possible. ... Understanding is contained in explanations, answers to why questions.” (cit. by Xxxxxxxx/Xxxxxxx XX/Xxxxxxxxx/Xxxxxxx 2005: 244 ff.) While “knowledge creation” is sometimes viewed “as a process of transforming tacit knowledge [...] into explicit knowledge [...]”, Xxxxxxxx/Xxxxxxx XX/Xxxxxxxxx/Xxxxxxx (2005: 246 ff.) define knowledge creation as “the process by which knowledge is developed, disseminated, and used”. For them, knowledge development and research are synonymous, while knowledge creation includes also the dissemination and use of knowledge. Health statistics and PHR activities can support to the creation of knowledge and help to develop understanding by comparisons, analysing possible associations and causal relationships. They can be used to test the validity of a hypothesis and are also related to knowledge development (= research) (ibid: 251). They can also support understanding of potential solutions to health problems, especially if points in time, regions, populations are compared (ibid: 243). The critical question for health statistics and PHR activities is how to contribute to “knowledge creation”. In a first step, the challenges of the transfer of knowledge and knowledge management can be described by looking at the blueprint of an information system. An information system can be des...

Knowledge Creation. The delivery of indicators and maps can be complemented by further information and documents giving guidance and supporting the creation of knowledge (s. Figure 16). E.g., the Eurostat regional yearbook describes relevant economic issues and developments and links the description and analysis with EU Structural Funds policies. This offers the opportunity to use the yearbook as a resource for the description of the general developments and the explanation of the indicators, while the application offers the opportunity to examine the status of one or more regions in relation to the general developments described in the yearbook. It is also possible to link the methodological notes and definitions of the Eurostat regional yearbook as well as metadata offered by Eurostat with the indicators delivered by the application. Further, it is possible to place texts or links to other documents, e.g. European health reports, studies or concepts for PHR activities. By this, the development of knowledge and understanding is supported. As far as health indicators are concerned, it is also possible to integrate links to available health information sources, e.g. EUPHIX. Besides information and guidance concerning the interpretation of indicators it is also possible to provide information or links to further information about regional entities and EU SF policies in documents being linked with the geographic entities. In theory, it is possible to deliver general information about a region, about projects in a region or relevant contacts, e.g. concerning EU SF policies. (Possible) Links for more information about national or regional conditions are: • EU Health Portal (Statistics, Reports, Programmes) xxxx://xx.xxxxxx.xx/health-eu/ • DG SANCO (Health Programme, Projects) xxxx://xx.xxxxxx.xx/dgs/health_consumer/index_de.htm • DG REGIO (EU Structural Funds, Projects) xxxx://xx.xxxxxx.xx/regional_policy/index_en.htm • European Observatory (Health Systems, Health Policies) xxxx://xxx.xxxx.xxx.xxx/observatory • EUPHIX (Health Information and Knowledge System) xxxx://xxx.xxxxxx.xxx • PH reports (national, regional, local); xxx.xxx-xxx.xxx.xx • Portrait of the Regions (Geography, History, Population, Employment, Economy, Environment, Education, Health, Culture) xxxx://xxxxx.xxxxxx.xx/irc/dsis/regportraits/info/data/en/index.htm • ESPON (territorial development) xxxx://xxx.xxxxx.xx/ • Inspire (spatial information Infrastructure) xxxx://xxx.xx- xxx.xxx/xxxxxxx/xxxxxxxxxx.xxx • WHO xxx...
