Follow up to NIEM from meeting discussion

Mandana  et al,

This has the schemas, which are hard to follow without an XML tool...I
think the excel version however provides most of what we need.  They
have a tab for Emergcy Management.  Here's an example of what one sees
there. We were talking about contact info like telephone numbers.

 There is an Alarm event that is a type of Activity and has the following info.


extends nc:ActivityType	A data type for an alarm event.
		
em:AlarmEventCategory	<abstract element, no type>	A kind of alarm event.

Substitutable Elements:		
    + em:AlarmEventCategoryCode	apco:AlarmEventCategoryCodeType	A kind
of alarm event.
    + em:AlarmEventCategoryText	nc:TextType	A kind of alarm event.

em:AlarmEventCallBackTelephoneNumber	nc:TelephoneNumberType	A
telephone number of the alarm event requestor.

It would take a few days perhaps to map this spreadsheet of entities
to things we are taling about.  They have lots, for exampe on
Organizations, Resoureces and People.  Below is the section on
Organization.
