Intellectual Entity
One of the five 'entities' relevant to digital preservation as defined in the PREMIS data model. An Intellectual Entity is a coherent set of content that can reasonably be described as a unit, i.e. a conceptual object, or something that a human can understand as a meaningful unit of information such as a website, a photograph or a report. An Intellectual Entity may have one or more Representations and may also be made up of one or more Files.
