Understanding the FEA Data Reference Model Structure PPT

This PPT slide, part of the 35-slide FEAF: Data Reference Model (DRM) PowerPoint presentation, presents a visual representation of the FEA Data Reference Model (DRM) using Unified Modeling Language (UML) Class Diagram notation. It outlines the hierarchical structure of data organization, emphasizing the relationships among various components. The model is segmented into 4 primary categories: Domain, Subject, Topic, and Data Category, each building upon the previous layer.

At the top level, the Domain encompasses broader categories, which are then broken down into Subjects. Each Subject can be further divided into Topics, illustrating a clear path of categorization. The notation indicates that multiple Topics can exist within a Subject, and each Topic can be categorized by different Data Categories. This layered approach helps in understanding how data is organized and classified.

The slide also highlights the concept of Data Assets and Data Exchanges. Data Assets are categorized and can be exchanged between information providers and consumers. The relationships are depicted with arrows and multiplicity indicators, suggesting that a Data Category can categorize multiple Data Assets, and Data Assets can be exchanged in various contexts. This framework is crucial for organizations aiming to enhance data sharing and management, particularly within federal agencies.

Overall, the slide serves as a concise guide to understanding the dynamics of data organization, emphasizing the importance of structured categorization and the facilitation of data exchange. This model can be instrumental for executives looking to improve data governance and interoperability within their organizations.
