TOC/METS Mapping

METS Element	TOC Value	Attribute	Description
mets	xsi:schemaLocation="http://www.loc.gov/METS/ http://www.loc.gov/mets/mets.xsd"	xsi:schemaLocation	schemaLocation
dmdSec	ID=dynamic	id	This section records all of the descriptive metadata for all items in the METS object (including both structural map divs and descriptive metadata for data files)
mdWrap	MIMETYPE="text/xml" MDTYPE="MODS"	mimetype, mdtype	descriptional metadata wrapper
xmldata	The TOCs container, mdRecord (escidoc) contains a MODS description of the descriptive MD	---	A wrapper element to contain XML encoded metadata
amdSec	ID=dynamic	id	This section records all of the administrative metadata for all items in the METS object
rightsMD	ID=dynamic	id	intellectual property rights metadata
digiprovMD	ID=dynamic	id	The digiprovMD element provides a wrapper around a generic metadata section, which should contain information regarding the ultimate origin of a digital object and the derivation of its current elements
fileSec	---	---	The content file section records information regarding all of the data files which comprise the digital library object
fileGrp	USE=DEFAULT or USE=MIN or USE=MAX	use	This element allows for the grouping of content files into sets (Thumbnail, Web and Full resolution)
file	ID= Id of the file item MIMETYPE=image/jpeg	id, mimetype
FLocat	LOCTYPE=URL xlink:href= baseURL + <toc:ptr ID="itemXXPtr" xlink:href="/ir/item/escidoc:XX">	loctype, xlink:href	File Location
structMap	TYPE=physical (files)or TYPE=logical (struct elem.)	type	The structural map is the heart of a METS document, defining the hierarchical arrangement of a primary source document which has been digitized
div	ID=dynamic DMDID= corresponding dmdSec ID AMDID= corresponding admSec ID TYPE=Page (physical structMap) TYPE=struct. element (logical structMap)	id, dmdid, admid, type	The METS standard represents a document structurally as a series of nested div elements
div	ID=dynamic ORDER=<toc:div ID="itemXX" ORDER="X"> ORDERLABEL=<toc:div ID="XX" ORDERLABEL="XX"> TYPE=<toc:div ID="XX" ... TYPE="XX">	id, order	sub div
fptr	FILEID=id of the item in the fileSec	fileid	File Pointer
structLink	---	---	The Structural Map Linking section allows for the specification of hyperlinks between different components of a METS structure delineated in a structural map
smLink	---	xlink:from=id in logical structMap xlink:to=id in physical structMap	An element linking two elements in the structural map

Annotations:

• If structMap TYPE=physical => div TYPE=page.
• If structMap TYPE=physical and structMap TYPE=logical exists, these two elements have tp be linked in the structLink element.
