INFRASTRUCTURE DATA TAXONOMY OVERVIEW About the Infrastructure Data Taxonomy (IDT) Infrastructure and its elements can be described and categorized in various ways. Industries operating in various sectors of the Nation’s infrastructure, for example, often use the same term to refer to very different things. Terminology also lacks consistency among government agencies at the Federal, State, and local levels. Toward that end, the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) Office of Infrastructure Protection created the Infrastructure Data Taxonomy (IDT). The IDT is a nomenclature that can be used by the infrastructure protection community and industry partners to categorize infrastructure assets and establish a common language for all to use. It establishes a detailed and structured terminology that facilitates data discovery, management, and enables data sharing among mission partners and systems. Using the IDT The IDT Table of Contents serves as a quick reference for the taxonomy in which infrastructure sector assets can be categorized. The taxonomy is organized around the 18 sectors recognized by DHS: Agriculture and Food, Banking and Finance, Chemical, Defense Industrial Base, Energy, Emergency Services, Information Technology, Communications, Postal and Shipping, Healthcare and Public Health, Transportation, Water, National Monuments & Icons, Commercial Facilities, Government Facilities, Dams, Nuclear, and Critical Manufacturing. Within each sector an IDT Path can be assigned with up to five levels. The first level is determined by one of the 18 infrastructure categories. The other levels are used when additional descriptive information is available to describe an infrastructure element. The five levels of differentiation found within the IDT are the sector, sub-sector, segment, sub-segment, and asset level. In describing a given infrastructure asset, the general convention is to use the greatest level of detail possible. If there is insufficient information to identify an asset at a greater level of detail, a less-detailed level may be used. Figure 1 describes the IDT Path levels as they are displayed in the Table of Contents. Figure 2 is an example from the Taxonomy with descriptors for the fields included for each IDT entry. Some infrastructure assets fall into multiple categories of the taxonomy. For this reason, some concepts may be found listed within multiple sectors. This is called a cross-sector reference. Infrastructure Data Taxonomy, Version 4 i IDT Applications and Limitations The IDT is a reference tool for facilitating discovery, communication, and information sharing. It is not used by DHS to determine classification or prioritization of assets. The IDT does not represent the areas of responsibility for the Sector-Specific Agencies under the National Infrastructure Protection Plan (NIPP). Some asset types are included in multiple categories (e.g., pipelines are included in both the Energy and Transportation Sectors) because they are notable infrastructure assets that support both industries. The NIPP and associated Sector-Specific Plans remain the guiding documents to outline sector authorities and responsibilities. It is neither intended nor expected that the IDT should replace the common language used by industry partners for the same purpose.
