This is different from the standard logical/physical models that DBAs normally do. From what I can tell its a very high level picture of our data that maps it to business functions for upper management types who need to look at many different applications/DBs and make sure that the projects align to the business.
I have never made one of these before. I was basically given a week to do it, then a review with the client. The doc I got from them looks like its partially a copy and paste of boilerplate text from an 'do you want to be an Enterprise Architect?' blog. The rest is vagueries about naming conventions.

No pictures. (all those sections say 'to be completed'). All my google searches seem to turn up are vague references. Many of which are copy and pastes of the link below.
Is there a data modeller listserv? Paul Dorsey and several other guys who focus more on the modelling end used to hang out on the odtug listservs, but they shut down. Ill take a book recommendation, but it needs to be something at the store. If I order it, it will arrive too late.
