The metadata reference element <mdRef> element is a generic element used throughout the METS schema to provide a pointer to metadata which resides outside the METS document.  NB: <mdRef> is an empty element.  The location of the metadata must be recorded in the xlink:href attribute, supplemented by the XPTR attribute as needed.

Namespace http://www.loc.gov/METS/
Annotations
A metadata wrapper element <mdWrap> provides a wrapper around metadata embedded within a METS document. The element is repeatable. Such metadata can be in one of two forms: 1) XML-encoded metadata, with the XML-encoding identifying itself as belonging to a namespace other than the METS document namespace. 2) Any arbitrary binary or textual form, PROVIDED that the metadata is Base64 encoded and wrapped in a <binData> element within the internal descriptive metadata element.

ADMID (IDREFS/O): Contains the ID attribute values of the <digiprovMD>, <techMD>, <sourceMD> and/or <rightsMD> elements within the <amdSec> of the METS document that contain administrative metadata pertaining to the current mdSecType element. Typically used in this context to reference preservation metadata (digiprovMD) which applies to the current metadata. For more information on using METS IDREFS and IDREF type attributes for internal linking, see Chapter 4 of the METS Primer.
CREATED xsd:dateTime optional
CREATED (dateTime/O): Specifies the date and time of creation for the metadata.
GROUPID xsd:string optional
GROUPID (string/O): This identifier is used to indicate that different metadata sections may be considered as part of a group. Two metadata sections with the same GROUPID value are to be considered part of the same group. For example this facility might be used to group changed versions of the same metadata if previous versions are maintained in a file for tracking purposes.
ID xsd:ID required
ID (ID/R): This attribute uniquely identifies the element within the METS document, and would allow the element to be referenced unambiguously from another element or document via an IDREF or an XPTR. The ID attribute on the <dmdSec>, <techMD>, <sourceMD>, <rightsMD> and <digiprovMD> elements (which are all of mdSecType) is required, and its value should be referenced from one or more DMDID attributes (when the ID identifies a <dmdSec> element) or ADMID attributes (when the ID identifies a <techMD>, <sourceMD>, <rightsMD> or <digiprovMD> element) that are associated with other elements in the METS document. The following elements support references to a <dmdSec> via a DMDID attribute: <file>, <stream>, <div>.  The following elements support references to <techMD>, <sourceMD>, <rightsMD> and <digiprovMD> elements via an ADMID attribute: <metsHdr>, <dmdSec>, <techMD>, <sourceMD>, <rightsMD>, <digiprovMD>, <fileGrp>, <file>, <stream>, <div>, <area>, <behavior>. For more information on using ID attributes for internal and external linking see Chapter 4 of the METS Primer.

ID (ID/R): This attribute uniquely identifies the element within the METS document, and would allow the element to be referenced unambiguously from another element or document via an IDREF or an XPTR. The ID attribute on the <dmdSec>, <techMD>, <sourceMD>, <rightsMD> and <digiprovMD> elements (which are all of mdSecType) is required, and its value should be referenced from one or more DMDID attributes (when the ID identifies a <dmdSec> element) or ADMID attributes (when the ID identifies a <techMD>, <sourceMD>, <rightsMD> or <digiprovMD> element) that are associated with other elements in the METS document. The following elements support references to a <dmdSec> via a DMDID attribute: <file>, <stream>, <div>.  The following elements support references to <techMD>, <sourceMD>, <rightsMD> and <digiprovMD> elements via an ADMID attribute: <metsHdr>, <dmdSec>, <techMD>, <sourceMD>, <rightsMD>, <digiprovMD>, <fileGrp>, <file>, <stream>, <div>, <area>, <behavior>.

GROUPID (string/O): This identifier is used to indicate that different metadata sections may be considered as part of a group. Two metadata sections with the same GROUPID value are to be considered part of the same group. For example this facility might be used to group changed versions of the same metadata if previous versions are maintained in a file for tracking purposes.

Typically used in this context to reference preservation metadata (digiprovMD) which applies to the current metadata.
