Uniform Resource Name (URN) Namespace for the National Emergency Number
Association (NENA)
Abstract
This document describes the Namespace Identifier (NID) "nena" for
Uniform Resource Name (URN) resources published by the National
Emergency Number Association (NENA). NENA defines and manages
resources that utilize this URN model. Management activities for
these and other resource types are provided by the NENA Registry
System (NRS).

1. Introduction
The National Emergency Number Association (NENA) is currently in the
process of setting standards, processes, and procedures for the use
of an IP-based Emergency Services IP Network (ESInet) for all public
safety entities in North America. Some of the solutions being
developed by NENA require XML namespaces that are managed so that
they are unique and persistent. To assure that the uniqueness is
absolute, the registration of a specific Uniform Resource Name (URN)
[RFC2141] Namespace ID (NID) for use by NENA is required. This
document defines and registers such a namespace in accordance with
[RFC3406].

Declaration of syntactic structure:
The Namespace Specific String (NSS) of all URNs that use the
"nena" NID will have the following structure:
{NENAclass}:{ClassSpecificString}
The "NENAclass" conforms to the URN syntax requirements [RFC2141] and
defines a specific class of resource type. Each class will have a
