Logical Data Model, Codes


Definition

The logical data model consists of:

  • Entity Relationship Diagram (ERD)
  • Entity Type and Attribute descriptions (the "Data Dictionary")
  • Codes spreadsheet

The logical data model shows the information needs of the business.  It is designed at the logical level (separated from the physical implementation) as much as possible, however, the automated transformation process used (logical to physical) requires some physical design considerations within the logical model.
