Operational View (OV) is one of the basic views, defined in the enterprise architecture (EA) of the Department of Defense Architecture Framework V1.5 (DoDAF). Under DODAF 2, which became operational in 2009, the collections of views are now termed 'viewpoints' and no longer views.
Other enterprise architecture frameworks may or do have operational views. For example the MODAF has an Operational Viewpoint and the NATO Architecture Framework has an Operational View (collection of subviews). This article will further explain the construction of the Operational View of the DoDAF V1.5.
Famous quotes containing the word view:
“What makes a regiment of soldiers a more noble object of view than the same mass of mob? Their arms, their dresses, their banners, and the art and artificial symmetry of their position and movements.”
—George Gordon Noel Byron (1788–1824)
