PREMIS → PiM

Validate a given PREMIS document and convert it to a PiM document via the BP/METS Profile and specified options. For the main transformation logic XSLT style sheets will be used.

Option 1: PREMIS Container

Create a METS document that has all PREMIS elements bundled together in a PREMIS container inside the amdSec.

Option 2: METS Administrative Meta Data Containers

Create a METS document that has all PREMIS elements factored into the respective METS administrative metadata sections outlined in the BP/METS Profile.

File Section

For each PREMIS file create a METS file (in a file group inside a file section)

Structure Map

  • Derive a METS structure map for each structural PREMIS representation.
  • Create a flat METS structure map referencing all files if no PREMIS representation exists.

Input & Output

Supported input methods are those outlined for Validation. Output will be METS XML. For browser viewing a METS XMLHTML style sheet will be referenced.
