A role played by some substance or object within a commercial transaction description.
A placeholder for some roles in common sense that do not easily map to other types of roles. More work is needed here.
This is a role (e.g. closed area) for places. Locative roles are played by physical objects (in locational cases, physical places), as well as non-physical places (individual places depending on a physical object).
A political geographic object that is (generically) dependent on some physical place (in principle, countries can change their borders).
Formerly: (non-) agentive temporary role.A role for talking of someone or something at certain phases of own life. It can be used also to map temporal parts of agentive objects from a 4D ontology.
Any physical body at the biological granularity level. They are (generically) constituted by chemical objects.
A quality space used as a reference metrics ("measurement space") for other spaces. It is usually "counted by" some number.
A placeholder for physical objects that are conceived primarily as places, e.g. wrt their spatial quality.
A regulation having a cognitive modal description as part.
A non-physical place, generically dependent on some (physical) geographical object.
A role played by some feature of a physical object.
A role played by some substance.
Amount of matter playing a typically 'functional' role at some time in some situation.
A physical place whose spatial quality is q-located in geographical coordinates.
A feature related to spatial properties.
A role played by assets involved in a legal possession description.
A binding agreement that is possibly enforceable by law.
A non-agentive figure (e.g. Italy) for non-physical (i.e. socially- or cognitively-constructed) places.Non-physical places generically depend on physical places.
A physical body is a non-agentive physical object whose primary identity criterion is not given by its artefactual origin, if any. For example, a rock or a tree can be considered physical bodies unless or until they are not viewed as artifacts. As a matter of fact, no easy definition of artifactual properties is possible, hence it is better to rely on alternative descriptions and roles: a physical object that shows or is known to have an artifactual origin that counts in the tasks an ontology is supposed to support, will be a material artifact. On the other hand, physical objects that do not show that origin, or that origin is unimportant for the task of the ontology, will be physical bodies. Formally, a restriction is provided here that requires that the collection whose members are proper parts of a physical body is not *unified* by a plan or project. BTW, a physical body can still be a *device*, can be 'used' and have 'functions' (roles), e.g. a stone used as a weapon, but it plays no role like being produced, as material artifacts do. Moreover, a collection whose members are proper parts of a physical body can still be unified by a description (e.g. a biochemical model). Physical bodies can have several granularity levels: geological, chemical, physical, biological, etc.
A role only played by collections.
The information realized by an entity for creative purposes. Here mainly for mapping purpose from WordNet.
A geographical place, conventionally accepted by a community.
Any physical body at the chemical granularity level.
A role defined (not just used!) by a causal description, and exploited to conceptualize some causation invariants.Causal notions are still primitive in this version of DLP.
The time interval of duration of a perdurant.
The transitive proper part relation between political (non-physical)
geographic objects. It is a primitive proper-part, and not a composed
relation through the physical depend-ons of political places, since
geographical parts can be dependent on disconnected physical places.
A relation for composing regions by means of a reference metrics. One of them (the measurement unit) should be explicitly used to represent a measurement space.
Perdurant presence (happening) is axiomatized as being temporally located at a point in one's life.
A relation to compose a quality space with a numeric ordering at the symbol level. In practice, it enables to associate an instance of a numeric data type (currently float data types have been chosen) to a region.
Similar to a generic annotation property. To be used when annotations can be incompatible with an ontology project.
