Definition
The set of all Descriptors for a given Producer-Archive Project. The model of objects for transfer (MOT) is used jointly by the Producer and the Archive to provide a common and understandable hierarchical view of the Producer’s Data Objects to be transferred and their organization into collections.
MOTs are hierarchical structures that illustrate conceptual levels of arrangement within a fonds or collection registered in the /wiki/spaces/APM/pages/90538072. The Data Objects to be transferred are organized as Transfer Objects, which are organized as collections. A MOT typically has collections of collections.
