Alistair: The ERD was created using EERD (i.e., extended entity-relationship diagram) modeling in Visio. In approaching the task initially, I looked around at various modeling techniques and chose EERD, as the extended set gave me options I needed to represent and it was closest to the ERD diagrams used in FRBR, etc. As to why Visio? The answer's simple: It's the tool I know and I found a cool template for EERD's that made it quick and easy.
If I've missed the question here and the answer you're looking for is what methodology did I use in creating it, what were my sources, etc. Let me know. I kept a full record of how it was developed and how it's being updated. I can provide a quick bulletted list of the methodolgy used to date.
