Absolute cross sections for the {\it K}-shell photoionization of Be-like and Li-like atomic nitrogen ions were measured by employing the ion-photon merged-beam technique at the SOLEIL synchrotron radiation facility in Saint-Aubin, France. High-resolution spectroscopy at nominal resolutions of 38 meV, 56 meV, 111 meV, 133 meV FWHM for Be-like and 125 meV FWHM for Li-like atomic nitrogen ions was achieved for the photon energies ranging from 410 eV up to 460 eV. The experimental measurements are compared with theoretical estimates from the multi-configuration Dirac-Fock (MCDF), R-matrix and an empirical method. The interplay between experiment and theory enabled the identification and characterisation of the strong 1s $\rightarrow$ 2p resonances features observed in the {\it K}-shell spectra of each ion and the region around 460 eV for the 1s $\rightarrow$ 3p resonance of the N$^{3+}$ ion yielding suitable agreement with experiment.
