> The key Emergency-specific standards which will include an ontological 
> representation that will be updated (versioned) over time is the OASIS 
> Emergency Data Exchange Language Reference Information Model 
> (EDXL-RIM).
>
> EDXL-RIM is intended to formalize the ontological foundation as well 
> as controlled vocabularies for all EDXL Standards.
>
> It is envisioned to be produced in discrete modules which allows the 
> OASIS Emergency Management Technical Committee's EDXL-RIM Subcomittee 
> to work on smaller units than a larger, overarching and comprehensive 
> document.
>
> The first unit will focus on EDXL-DE and the ValueListURN concept that 
> allows any published and maintained list (taxonomy or
> terminology) to be used to specify such items as Event (or Incident) 
> Types, Organizational Roles and Responsibilities, Equipment and 
> Facilities names and descriptions.
>
> EDXL-RIM is taken from and abstracted from the EDXL family of 
> Standards that currently includes:
>        EDXL-Disribution Element ( EDXL-DE) for packaging and routing 
> emergency messages;
>        EDXL-Hospital AVailability Exchange (EDXL-HAVE) for standard 
> hospital system (emergency) status report messages;
>        EDXL-Resource Messaging (EDXL-RM) for the exchange of emergency 
> logistics information messages.
>
> Prospective new EDXL Submissions for developing Standards:
>        EDXL-Situation Reporting (EDXL-SR) for situation report 
> messages (submission process underway); and,
>        EDXL-Emergency Patient Tracking (EDXL-EPT) to provide emergency 
> patient identity information exchange.
