title:UCSD
Complex Object Profile
abstract:The
UCSD Libraries uses the UCSD Complex Object profile for composing
METS instances for digital objects in which the primary content of
the digital object is contained in two or more digital files. The
content files may be of any format type, e.g., audio, image, text,
or video, and there can be any combination of formats within a
single complex object. There are no restrictions placed on the type
of logical structure represented in the complex object. The decision
to require a complex object’s structure to be represented by both
physical and logical <structMap>s, as described in the
profile, is influenced by the current requirements of the METS
Navigator application.

UCSD Simple Object Profile
description_rules:
All applications of MODS in UCSD METS records adhere to the MODS
User Guidelines published by the Library of Congress's Network
Development and MARC Standards Office.
MODS usage in UCSD METS records is also informed by The Digital
Library Federation / Aquifer Implementation Guidelines for Shareable
MODS Records.

image content files, can be included in a <techMD> section
instead of a separate <sourceMD> section.
requirement:
@ID="rightsMD1"

METSRights schema. The <rightsMD> for the digital object as a
whole will be taken to apply to all component parts unless different
rights are specified for components in additional <rightsMD>
sections.

rts/RightsDeclarationMD/RightsDeclaration from the METSRights Schema
with the value expressed as either "Copyright is held by unnamed
third party" for works for which the copyright holder(s) can not be
identified, "Copyright is held by named third party but not the UC
Regents" for works for which the copyright holder(s) is not the UC
Regents and can be identified, "Copyright held by the UC Regents"
for materials under copyright to the University of California
Regents, "The work is in the public domain" for works known to have
entered the public domain, or "Copyright status has not been
determined by the UCSD Libraries" for works for which the copyright
holder(s) cannot be identified and the work cannot be said to have
entered the public domain.
requirement:
@ID="rightsMD4"
If necessary, a justification of the rights declaration can be
included in rts/RightsDeclarationMD/RightsDeclaration/ element to
explain the copyright assertion. This is not necessary if the basis
for the assertion is evident in the descriptive metadata for the
object. In cases where this is not evident, a justification
statement may be very useful. Examples of such cases include 1) when
the copyright holder is different than the creator and 2) when an
item has been gifted to the public domain prior to the copyright
expiring.
requirement:
@ID="rightsMD5"
A conforming METS record must include a
rts/RightsDeclarationMD/Context/Constraints/ConstraintDescription
containing an indication of how the digital asset can be used. See
the UCSD Rights Metadata Strategy for boilerplate text.
requirement:
@ID="rightsMD6"
A conforming METS record may, but is not required to, include a
rts/RightsHolder/… from the METSRights Schema for those works for
which the copyright holder(s) can be identified. Data can include
the name of the copyright holder(s), their contact information and
any notes relevant to the copyright holder.
requirement:
@ID="sourceMD1"
If source metadata is recorded, elements in the <sourceMD>
sections should be expressed using an extension schema endorsed by
the METS Editorial Board designed for expressing source metadata
(although at this date of publication an extension schema has not
yet been endorsed for source metadata).
requirement:
@ID="digiprovMD1"
If provenance metadata is recorded, elements in the
<digiprovMD> sections should be expressed using an extension
schema endorsed by the METS Editorial Board designed for expressing
provenance metadata (although at this date of publication an
extension schema has not yet been endorsed for provenance metadata).
fileSec:
requirement:
@ID="fileSec1"
The <fileSec> for a compliant METS record must contain one,
or more, <fileGrp> elements.
requirement:
@ID="fileSec2"
Each <fileGrp> must include a file USE attribute, with a
value taken from the controlled vocabulary listed above,
representing the intended use of the referenced file(s).
requirement:
@ID="fileSec3"
Each <file> element must contain ID and GROUPID attribute
value pairs.
requirement:
@ID="fileSec4"
Each <file> element must reference pertinent <techMD>
sections by including the relevant ID values in the ADMID attribute.
The ADMID attribute should also reference pertinent <sourceMD>
and <provenanceMD> elements, if present. The <file>
element should only reference ID values at the levels of
<techMD>, <sourceMD>, and <digiprovMD>.
structMap:
requirement:
@ID="structMap1"
A conforming METS record must contain two <structMap>
elements, one with the TYPE attribute value encoded as "logical", a
second with the value encoded as "physical".
requirement:
@ID="structMap2"
The physical <structMap> represents a flattened structure
and must only contain two levels of <div> elements with no
further nesting. The top level <div> element required by the
METS schema contains one level of child <div> elements to
represent the linear sequence of the components of the digital
object.
requirement:
@ID="structMap3"
The logical structMap represents the full hierarchical structure
of the digital object, and so can contain as many levels of nested
<div> elements as required to express the objects full
structure.
requirement:
@ID="structMap4"
All <div> elements within the top level containing
<div> must have an ORDER attribute.
requirement:
@ID="structMap5"
When applicable, <div> elements must reference pertinent
<dmdSec> sections by including the relevant ID values in the
DMDID attributes.
requirement:
@ID="structMap6"
When applicable, <div> elements should include a LABEL
attribute with the value derived from, and identical, to the value
encoded in the /mods/titleInfo/title element in the related
<dmdSec>.
requirement:
@ID="structMap7"
When applicable, <div> elements must reference pertinent
<rightsMD> sections by including the relevant ID values in the
ADMID attributes.
requirement:
@ID="structMap8"
Each <fptr> element must reference an individual
<file> element representing a version of the file.
requirement:
@ID="structMap9"
The <fptr> element must use the FILEID attribute to point
directly to a <file> element.
requirement:
@ID="structMap10"
The <fptr> element may not contain an <area>,
<par>, or <seq> element. These elements are not
supported in objects conforming to this profile.
requirement:
@ID="structMap11"
The <mptr> element is not supported in this profile.
multiSection:
requirement:
@ID="multi1"
Only <file> elements will reference elements in the
<techMD>, <sourceMD>, and <digiprovMD> sections.
requirement:
@ID="multi2"
Only the <div> element will reference metadata in the
<dmdSec> and <rightsMD> sections. That is, descriptive
metadata and rights metadata are always and only expressed in
conjunction with division of the <structMap> and not in
conjunction with the content file(s).
technical_requirements:
content_files:
requirement:
The profile does not prescribe a format for the file, but it is
strongly recommended that the file format and resolution for at
least one version of the image be of an archival
quality.
metadata_files:
requirement:
This profile does not prescribe referencing of external metadata
records. If an external metadata record is referenced, it is
recommended that the file be valid for the schema in which it is
written, i.e., that it be a valid MARC record.
tool:
description:
Some of the requirements of this profile, especially the
requirement for two <structMap>s, are influenced by the METS
Navigator application as it is currently available.
