This is a BOUML "plugout" that supports mapping UML abstract class models to the NIEM 4 framework.
Jim Cabral of InfoTrack US developed this UML-based tool for developing and managing NIEM architectures.
Portions of this work were supported by MTG Management Consultants LLC.
The advantages relative to other tools include:
Standards-Based – Conforms to UML 2.0 and NIEM Naming and Design Rules (NDR).
Inexpensive – An open source “plugout” module for BOUML, a free UML modeling program
Simple to Use – Supports round-trip NIEM mapping using a simple spreadsheet and doesn’t require knowledge of the NIEM-UML Profile
Complete – Captures UML process and object models and automatically generates HTML documentation, NIEM XML mappings, “want lists”, schemas, code lists, and Web Service Definition Language (WSDL) and OpenAPI service definitions.
Future-Proof – Can import and migrate models to future versions of NIEM when released
