Remarks

The elements height, width, and depth are available for circumstances that require the capture of the individual dimensions of an object. Do not confuse this element with the extent element, which is used to indicate the quantity of described materials. This element is modelled on elements in the Text Encoding Initiative (TEI) and Encoded Archival Description (EAD) standards.
