Proposed NIEM Endorsement

Whereas, the members and the companies affiliated with the IJIS Institute wish to support the adoption and use of national standards for facilitating information sharing to improve the ability of local, state, tribal and Federal agencies to exchange information, and

Whereas, the U.S. Departments of Justice and Homeland Security have agreed to adopt a National Information Exchange Model (NIEM) expanding upon the widely accepted Global Justice XML Data Model (GJXDM) to support such sharing, and

Whereas, the President has ordered the development of standards that will help enable Federal agencies to exchange information with local, state and tribal agencies based on their adoption of NIEM, then
