This document specifies a data model of visualization elements for 3D data exchange for error information feedback between product lifecycle management (PLM) and manufacturing execution system (MES or MOM: manufacturing operations management) in the engineering plant industry.

The followings are within the scope of this document:

a)       data model of visualization elements for the engineering plant industry with complex and long-lifespan products;

b)       definitions of the properties of the data model for the visualization elements of the PLM-MES interface;

c)        relationship with the information model of visualization elements as defined in ISO 10303-239;

d)       relationship with the information model of the visualization elements as defined in IEC 62264 series;

e)       information flow with equipment used in production and related measuring equipment as managed inside MES.
