Description

The NATO System Function to Operational Activity Traceability Matrix (NSV-5) addresses the linkage between functions described in an NSV-4 and Operational Activities specified in an NOV-5. The NSV-5 View depicts the mapping of functions (and, optionally, the functional resources that provide them) to operational activities and thus identifies the transformation of an operational need into a purposeful action performed by a system or solution. 

Implementation

NSV-5 can be represented using a NSV-5 diagram which is an editable Dependency Matrix. The Functions will be used as the row elements and the Operational Activities will be used as the column elements.
