What are the base documents required for data modelling like example LLD(High Level Design) ?

It depends on your situation. If you look at the diagram in Development Phases Examined you'll notice that there's no starting point. The implication is that you could, if you chose to, walk right up to a whiteboard and start doing data modeling (hopefully with at least one other person) without any other input.

Then again, perhaps your organization chooses to be incredibly inefficient and therefore requires a bunch of documentation to be written before you data model.

My advice is to choose to succeed.

Hi Scott, i read your link Development Phases Examined and http://www.agiledata.org/essays/dataModeling101.html
How can i create physical data model from the usecase description ? Any on-line document ?
