Archival Unit

The archival reference data model provides a list of standard fields that are typically present in the general description of bundled archival material in a cultural heritage data system. The archival unit is taken here in the sense of a bundled whole of some sort such as would be typically inventoried, managed and curated a museum or other cultural heritage institution. Specific documentation of elements of an archival unit depend highly upon the kind of archive it is. This reference model does not intend to cover such specificities but to remain at a general level description, providing a consolidated, high-level reference data model of most commonly reused descriptors for an archival unit and to provide for these, in turn, a set of standard semantic mappings to the CIDOC CRM. Moreover, each field is marked with regards to its potential functionality with regards to instance matching between overlapping datasets.

Metadata

Attribute Value
ID SRDM.16_Archival_Unit
KeyField SRDM.16_Archival_Unit
Identifier SRDM.16
Name Archival Unit
System Name Archival_Unit
Description
The archival reference data model provides a list of standard fields that are typically present in the general description of bundled archival material in a cultural heritage data system. The archival unit is taken here in the sense of a bundled whole of some sort such as would be typically inventoried, managed and curated a museum or other cultural heritage institution. Specific documentation of elements of an archival unit depend highly upon the kind of archive it is. This reference model does not intend to cover such specificities but to remain at a general level description, providing a consolidated, high-level reference data model of most commonly reused descriptors for an archival unit and to provide for these, in turn, a set of standard semantic mappings to the CIDOC CRM. Moreover, each field is marked with regards to its potential functionality with regards to instance matching between overlapping datasets.
