UML Conceptual Model



Elements defined in the Core Vocabulary

Event Class (abstract), subclass of Entity 

The Event is one of the core entities of the overall data model of the information sharing environment. It is an entity which holds information about movements, anomalies, incidents or actions which occur in the maritime domain. Event can have relationships with other events, objects, agents, documents, periods and locations. Event can also be related to risks in different roles. Event is an abstract entity which has four sub-entities: Movement, Anomaly, Incident and Action.

Attributes for Event

UML Name Data type Description Example
Identifier UniqueIdentifier

Identifier of the event.

Each UniqueIdentifier can be correlated with other UniqueIdentifiers, either manually, by operators, or automatically, by systems, so that duplicate objects in the network can be identified and brought together for a better understanding of the information being shared.

 
Metadata Metadata

see: Core Vocabularies Specification for "Metadata"

see: Core Vocabularies Specification for "Metadata"
NatureType NatureType

Enumerated. Is used to define nature of the event. An event can be observed, declared, estimated or simulated.

for an observed event:

01
OccurrencePeriod Period

An Event occurs during a period of time.

 

Association Roles for Event

UML Name Data type Description Multiplicity
Document Document

Events (movements, incidents, anomalies, actions) can be associated to zero to multiple documents.

 0..*
ImpliedRisk Risk

This bidirectional association can be used to link risks to event or to define events as consequences of one or many risks. Among events associated with Risks we can find: Movements, Anomalies, Incidents and Actions.

For example:

- mitigation actions can be associated with a risk,

- one or many risks can be the consequences of an incident.

- a movement of a dangerous ship can lead to a risk (pollution for example)

 0..*
InvolvedAgent Agent

Agents (persons, organizations) can be involved in zero to multiple events (movements, incidents, anomalies, actions) as actors or targets in many different roles.

The association has additional attributes - please check association class AgentEvent.

 0..* (allow duplicates)
InvolvedObject Object

Objects may be involved in Events. Events can concern Objects.

The association has additional attributes - please check association class ObjectEvent.

 0..* (allow duplicates)
InvolvedWith Event

The association has additional attributes - please check association class EventEvent.

 0..* (allow duplicates)
Location Location

Locations can be involved in zero to multiple events (movements, incidents, anomalies, actions) in many different roles.

The association has additional attributes - please check association class EventLocation.

 0..* (allow duplicates)

AgentEvent Association Class

This class allows the association between Agent (or one of its sub-classes: person, organization) and Event (or one of its sub-classes: movement, incident, anomaly, action). It is not mandatory to associate an Agent with an Event but one Agent can be associated to multiple different Events. The association further describes the role of the Agent in the Event.

Attributes for AgentEvent

UML Name Data type Description Example
AgentRole AgentRoleInEventType

Enumerated. Describes the role of Agent in the Event

the coordinator of planned action:

01
InvolvementPeriod Period

The Period of Involvement

 

EventEvent Association Class

Events (movements, incidents, anomalies, actions) can be involved in zero to multiple events (movements, incidents, anomalies, actions) in many different roles.

Attributes for EventEvent

UML Name Data type Description Example
EventRole EventRoleInEventType

Enumerated. Describes the relationship between two Events

an event causes another event : 01
InvolvementPeriod Period

The Period of Involvement

 

EventLocation Association Class

This class allows the association between Location and Event (or one of its sub-classes: Movement, Anomaly, Incident and Action). It is not mandatory to associate a Location with an Event but one Location can be associated to multiple different Events. The association further describes the role of the Location in relation to the Event.

Attributes for EventLocation

UML Name Data type Description Example
DateTime Period

The date and time at which the Location starts to be associated to the Event.

for 9am UTC on May 30th, 2002

2002-05-30T09:00:00Z
EventArea EventAreaType

 

Combat-related area:

02
LocationRole LocationRoleInEventType

Enumerated. Describes the relationship between the Event and the Location.

The Location is the start place of the event:

01
SourceType SourceType

 

 

ObjectEvent Association Class

This class allows the association between Object (or one of its sub-classes: vehicle, cargo) and Event (or one of its sub-classes: Movement, Anomaly, Incident, Action). It is not mandatory to associate an Object with an Event but one Object can be associated to multiple different Events. The association further describes the role of the Object in relation to the Event.

Attributes for ObjectEvent

UML Name Data type Description Example
InvolvementPeriod Period

The Period of Involvement

 
ObjectRole ObjectRoleInEventType

Enumerated. Describes the relationship between the Event and the Object.

The object is the coordinator of the event:
