Element names in the different UPDM profiles (UPDM)
The UPDM Profile (MODAF aliases), UPDM Profile (DoDAF aliases) and UPDM Profile (NAF aliases) profiles all support UPDM 2.1 and essentially have the same products and elements; however, some products and elements are named differently in each profile. The UPDM profiles use the following terminology:
The UPDM Profile (MODAF aliases) profile uses UPDM 2.1/MODAF 1.2 terminology.
The UPDM Profile (DoDAF aliases) profile uses UPDM 2.1/DoDAF 2 terminology.
The UPDM Profile (NAF aliases) profile uses UPDM 2.1/NAF 3.1 terminology.
If you are using the UPDM Profile (MODAF aliases), UPDM Profile (DoDAF aliases) or UPDM Profile (NAF aliases) profile and you want to use the product and element naming in an alternative UPDM aliases profile, add the required UPDM aliases profile to the model. Modeler removes the old UPDM aliases profile before adding the new UPDM aliases profile to the model.
For information about the different names used for products, click here Product names in the different UPDM profiles (UPDM)
Elements Name Differences
The following table shows how the elements are named in each of the UPDM profiles.
