FACE™ Consortium Data Model Overview

Data Architecture Objective
* Describe the data going into or coming out of a Unit of Portability (UoP), in the context of the entities of concern to the UoP, to enable an integrator to combine UoPs to provide a larger capability.
* Define common terminology so when we describe communicated data, we know what we are talking about
* Data model mechanisms are intended to be domain independent

Data Architecture Elements

Tech Standard
1) MetaModel defines rules for data model construction
2) OCL Constraints added for semantic checks

Shared Data Model (SDM) Gov Plan (FACE XMI)
