Here is what we do at the Metropolitan Museum. Feel free to contact me off list if you would like more details.
1. MediaBin 4.5, but currently mid-migration to NetXposure
2. Object tombstone data and object rights data
3. We map fields 1:1 from TMS to the DAMS
4. No conscious effort to conform to a standard, though like Houston, what we ended up with is pretty close to a CDWA record
5. On output we concatenate the tombstone data and embed it into dc:description along with the permanent URL to the object in our online collection. Rights
data is also mapped into a few different fields. We also embed the fielded tombstone into a custom XMP namespace that pairs with an Adobe file info panel that we use internally.
The only major change up ahead once our migration to NetXposure is complete is that we'll also be bringing data from the media tables into the DAMS, which
will enable us to better sync images from the DAMS to TMS and open up some options as far as potentially using the DAMS to serve the images for our online collection directly (currently TMS serves as something of an intermediary in that process).

Subject: Re: TMS data in your DAMS
Getting data in & out would be my #1 requirement when evaluating a potential DAMS. Any good, modern DAMS should have an accessible and well documented API which
makes getting the TMS data in and maintained (updated) a fairly straightforward activity. Also helpful to get data & images out and into TMS, which is a bit more complicated.

Subject: TMS data in your DAMS
Hello all!
I am interested in information from anyone who has integrated TMS with a DAMS for supplying or embedding object related information into either the media record
or the media file.
Specifically:
Thank you in advance for your feedback. ~Chad
