The four dimensions used to scope an architecture are Breadth, Depth, Time Period, and Architecture Domains1, p. 8.

Breadth refers to the extent of the enterprise covered by the architecture, which can range from a specific business unit to the entire organization1, p. 8.

Depth refers to the level of detail and completeness of the architecture, which can vary depending on the purpose, scope, and stakeholders of the architecture1, p. 8.

Time Period refers to the temporal aspects of the architecture, such as the current state, the target state, and the transition plan1, p. 8.

Architecture Domains refers to the classification of the architecture into four domains: Business, Data, Application, and Technology1, p. 8.

These four dimensions help define the scope and boundaries of the architecture and ensure that it meets the needs and expectations of the stakeholders.
