Introduction
The Global Justice XML Data Model (Global JXDM) is intended to be a data reference model for the exchange of information within the justice and public safety communities. The Global JXDM is a product of the Global Justice Information Sharing Initiative's (Global) Infrastructure and Standards Working Group (ISWG). It was developed by the Global ISWG's XML Structure Task Force (XSTF). The following are key links to Global JXDM resources.
