Domain:

crm:E53 Place

Range:

crm:E94 Space Primitive

Quantification:

1,1:0,n

Subproperty of:

• crm:E1 CRM Entity → crm:P1 is identified by (identifies) → crm:E41 Appellation

Scope note:

This property associates an instance of E53 Place with an instance of E94 Space Primitive that defines it. Syntactic variants or use of different scripts may result in multiple instances of E94 Space Primitive defining exactly the same place. Transformations between different reference systems always result in new definitions of places approximating each other and not in alternative definitions.

Examples:
