UAF Summary and Overview Views

The UAF 1.2 Summary and Overview viewpoints provide a high-level diagram that visualizes the ArchitecturalDescription definition, summarizing the overall architecture—its guiding vision, intended deployment environments, and the projects that support its realization. These viewpoints give stakeholders an executive-level perspective by consolidating key elements such as vision, context, deployment conditions, and implementation efforts. Designed for quick reference and easy comparison across different architectural descriptions, they deliver a clear, accessible summary that helps diverse stakeholder groups and organizational levels grasp the essential scope and direction of the enterprise architecture.
