Unifying Data Model - v6 Model Reference
This section contains detailed reference documentation for each domain in the Ed-Fi Unifying Data Model (UDM). Select each domain to review key conceptual information, usage guidelines, examples, and model diagrams.
See What's New for detailed model changes in the Data Standard versions 6.x.
Attributes in the Model Diagram and the Entity, References, and Descriptor sections may be removed once they meet the Ed-Fi Data Standard removal policy, which states that elements are eligible for removal two years after being marked as deprecated (typically after two major release cycles with breaking changes). The removal policy was put in use in Data Standard v5.0 and in v6.0. For a complete list of removed elements in DS v6.0, refer to: Removed previously marked deprecated properties
