Visually Constructing Our Physical System Context To add the external systems, we can use “New Node” to create and relate the element in one action

1. Drag- drop “New Node” on to “System Context” and name the new Component “Customers” 2. Drag- drop to create “Collectors” 3. Drag- drop to create “Certification Authority” The node on which you drop “Nodes” or “New Node” is the parent node (if you wanted to decompose “Geospatial Library”, you would drop “New Node” on it)
