Mapper
From DISMARC Help
Mappers are part of an Importer. They convert the XML they get from a Reader and try to create an XML that fulfills the DISMARC application profile.
Each archive needs it's own mapper, except if they use a predefined format like MAB, OAI and so on.
A mapper is capable of doing some things to your XML. This topic is quite technical for the AbstractDismarcImporter is discussed here.
