Data modelers intervi ew business experts, study piles of requirements, talk extensively, and the n–hocus pocus–present a diagram with boxes, crows feet, arrows, etc. Such data models can be quite abstract, misunderstood, and perce ived unnecessary.
\nFact-oriented information modeling is the very op posite of abstract, using natural language to express facts that are intell igible to both business and IT. It does not require an understanding of the magical language of boxes and arrows. Although fact-oriented models can be presented in several diagramming notations, the information can always be expressed in natural language. This gives data modelers, technically skille d people, and business people the benefit of having a fully documented ;and easily validated model.
