Intelligence Domain
Overview
The Intelligence domain within the National Information Exchange Model (NIEM) is designed to be the standard of choice for the exchange of intelligence among any federal, state, and local agencies on a foreign or domestic basis. The members of this domain seek to identify the operational needs to exchange intelligence, as well as the opportunities to share information with other domains and functions in justice and homeland security. The members of this domain group represent the full range of operations that deal with the gathering, analysis, fusion, and dissemination of intelligence—and, most important— the ability to act upon it.

Governance of this domain will be shared by criminal intelligence representatives of state and local law enforcement through the Criminal Intelligence Coordinating Council, a working group of the Attorney General’s Global Advisory Committee on Information Sharing, and the federal Intelligence Community as coordinated by the Director of National Intelligence.
The domain will have an appropriate balance of representatives of national intelligence efforts and criminal intelligence work at the state and local law enforcement levels.
