a possible XML GRDDL use case: National Information Exchange Model (NIEM)

Going over the GRDDL category in my blog

I see a potential XML use case:

GRDDL transform wanted: National Information Exchange Model (NIEM)

"Via Karen in the TAMI project, I gather last month the Department of
Justice and the Department of Homeland Security announced the result of
an XML collaboration - version 0.1 of the National Information Exchange
Model (NIEM) which will be used for law enforcement, emergency
management, etc. communities and the parties who exchange information
with them.

I hope to check it out. Better yet... I hope somebody else checks it out
and writes a GRDDL transformation."

Since then, in the TAMI project, we have made a bunch of relevant
progress. 

We haven't tackled the actual XSLT transformation; the
status there is: "Determine whether the scope of this project includes
using XSLT to convert the NIEM XML to RDF. If so, this work must be
assigned."

but we have modelled several scenarios in RDF in detail.

I'm not sure to what extent the RDF models we're using are based
on a careful study of the NIEM documentation.

These slides seem to give a flavor of the data.

This whole thing is probably too researchy/alpha for us to
act on in the near term, but maybe it's particularly interesting
to somebody?
