The Semantic view models the most salient Architecture Building Blocks that should be considered in order to support semantic aspects for the End to End design of interoperable digital public services.
Narrative: [Business Information] is represented by a [Representation], which is stored as [Data]. [Data] can be grouped in [Data Sets], which can be documented in [Data Set Catalogues] or in [Ontologies] which can be grouped in [Ontologies Catalogues] or in [Data Mappings] which can be grouped in [Data Mapping Catalogues]. A [Legal Act] has also a [Representation] which is stored as [Data] and [Legal Acts] can request the definition or use of specific [Data Sets]. [Data] has a specific [Data Owner] that is responsible of its management, together with [Public Service Consumer] and [Public Service Provider] and all negotiate and reach a [Semantic Agreement] and/or a [Semantic Interoperability Agreement], which is a specialisation of [Semantic Agreements]. [Data] is subject to [Data Policies], which also influence its [Representation]. Specific cases of [Data Policies] are [Master Data Policy], [Data portability Policy], [Open Data Policy], [Descriptive Metadata Policy], [Privacy Policy] and [Security Policy]. [Reference Data Policy] and [Base Registry Data Policy] are specialisations of [Master Data Policy].
These different Architecture Building Blocks define the [Semantic content] and [Semantic Governance Content], each of these Architecture Building Blocks can have any [Semantic Interoperability Specification] associated, which are a specialisation of [Interoperability Specification]. The [Semantic Interoperability Specifications] are divided in [Data Models], of which [Core Data Models] and [Data Entities] are specialisations, and which implement the semantic interoperability associated with the data, and [Data Syntaxes], which implement the syntactic interoperability. An [Interoperability Specification] realizes an [Interoperability Principle].
