- Interoperability is a characteristic of a product or system, whose interfaces are completely understood, to work with other products or systems, at present or in the future, in either implementation or access, without any restrictions. While the term was initially defined for information technology or systems engineering services to allow for information exchange, ^[1] a broader definition takes into account social, political, and organizational factors that impact system to system performance. ^[2] Task of building coherent services for users when the individual components are technically different and managed by different organizations ^[3]

- QUOTE: Interoperability describes the extent to which systems and devices can exchange data, and interpret that shared data. For two systems to be interoperable, they must be able to exchange data and subsequently present that data such that it can be understood by a user.

- interoperability
  - ability of two or more systems or components to exchange information and to use the information that has been exchanged
  - Vocabularies can support interoperability by including relations to other semantic structures, by presenting data in standard formats and by using systems that support common computer protocols.
