What is Information?

Many people are confuse between data, information and knowledge. I give an example for that, If you look at a traffic light, there is three(3) colour which is Read, Yellow and Green. The three(3) colour is simply a Data, but for those who know the meaning of the colour which is Red=Stop, Yellow=Standby(Danger) and Green=You Can Go Now, then the meaning of the colour is the Information.

In a formula form. Information=Data + Interpretation (Human)
