Answer to Question 1

The growth chart places Molly's measurements in context with other 8-year-old girls.

Answer to Question 2

Codified data can be read by the computer, exchanged with other EHR systems used for trending, analysis, and alerts; image data, however, must be viewed by a human being to be read.
