Light data
From XionKB
Light data is an information engineering term coined by American computer scientist Alexander Nicholi in his essay entitled The Superintegration Trifecta. It refers to a piece of data's intrinsic viability to be syndicated, i.e. duplicated generously across a network such as the Worldwide Web, in order to maximise the data's reach as information. It stands in contrast to heavy data, which is not so practical to syndicate.
