abstract: Provides a flexible container to transport and manipulate complex sets of
  data. These data may consist of multiple data files and associated meta data and
  ancillary files. Individual data objects have associated system level meta data,
  and data files are linked together using the OAI-ORE standard resource map which
  describes the relationships between the files. The OAI- ORE standard is described
  at <https://www.openarchives.org/ore/>. Data packages can be serialized and transported
  as structured files that have been created following the BagIt specification. The
  BagIt specification is described at <https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/html/draft-kunze-bagit-08>.
