In addition to NIEM.gov, Wikipedia has a very good NIEM overview page: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/National_Information_Exchange_Model
As for agency adoption, you can get an idea from the 13 "domains" currently participating in NIEM: https://www.niem.gov/faq/Pages/what-domains-are-currently-participating-in-niem.aspx The US Federal CIO Council published a report in June 2010 that some may find informative: AGENCY INFORMATION EXCHANGE FUNCTIONAL STANDARDS EVALUATION: Adoption and Use of the NATIONAL INFORMATION EXCHANGE MODEL https://www.niem.gov/documentsdb/Documents/Other/AssessmentReport.pdf For those wanting to see how exchanges are modeled and implemented in NIEM, I recommend a 4-article series written by Priscilla Walmsley, a very familiar name to many of you: Creating a NIEM IEPD http://www.ibm.com/developerworks/xml/library/x-NIEM1/index.html Finally, the NIEM Naming and Design Rules share similarities with other NDRs such as those for UBL and UNCEFACT standards. https://www.niem.gov/documentsdb/Documents/Technical/NIEM-NDR-1-3.pdf Standards such as ISO/IEC 11179 (parts 4 & 5) and CCTS were leveraged too.
