Hi Michael,
I'm not aware of any formal mappings of the CIDOC CRM to the IPTC Core
fields, but Adobe has tacitly mapped many of the IPTC Core fields to
Dublin Core in their XMP implementation (e.g. IPTC.Object_Name >
DC.Title, IPTC.Caption > DC.Description, IPTC.Byline > DC.Creator etc.),
and there is a mapping of the Dublin Core to the CIDOC CRM on the
Mappings page of the website:
http://www.cidoc-crm.org/crm_mappings.html
Cheers,
Tony Gill

Hello all,
It's my first post to CRM-SIG so please go easy on me...
I am looking at the feasibility (semantically and technically) of
mapping IPTC Core & Extension, PLUS fields and XMP (produced by
commercial companies) to the LIDO format (www.lido-schema.org/
<http://www.lido-schema.org/>).
As a first step I wondered if anyone had done the exercise of mapping
to CIDOC-CRM to demonstrate a basic level of compatibility?
I am thinking the use cases in various types of commercial
organisation are quite different, even before considering the needs of
cultural heritage, but I hypothesise there may be some way to specify
how a generic heritage viewpoint might be served by these fields and
create "good enough" mappings.
Any leads will be gratefully accepted and acknowledged. Best wishes,
Michael Hopwood
