P168 place is defined by (defines place)
Domain:
Range:
Quantification:
1,1:0,n
Subproperty of:
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:
The centroid from https://sws.geonames.org/735927 (E53) place is defined by 40°31'17.9"N 21°15'48.3"E (E94). [A single point for approximating the centre of the city of Kastoria, Greece]
Martin’s coordinates for Kastoria (E53) place is defined by 40°30'23"N 21°14'53"E, 40°31'40"N 21°16'43"E (E94). [A square covering the built settlement structure of Kastoria, Greece]
Martin’s centroid for Kastoria (E53) place is defined by 40°31'01.5"N 21°15'48"E (E94). [A point in the lake of Kastoria in the centre of the area covered by the city]
The position measured by Alexander von Humboldt for the Plaza Mayor in Cumaná, Sucre, Venezuela 1799-1800AD (E53) place is defined by 10°27'52"N 66°30'02"W (E94). [West of the Observatory of Paris = 64°09'51"W of Greenwich, actually 1.1km east of today’s Plaza Andrés Eloy Blanco of Cumaná] (Humboldt, 1859)
In First Order Logic:
- P168(x,y) ⇒ E53(x)
- P168(x,y) ⇒ E94(y)
- P168(x,y) ⇒ P1(x,y)

| Cette propriété associe une instance de E53_Lieu à une instance de E94_Primitive_spatiale qui la définit. Les variantes syntaxiques ou l'utilisation de différentes écritures peuvent mener à plusieurs instances de E94_Primitive_spatiale définissant exactement le même lieu. Les transformations d'un référentiel à un autre aboutissent toujours à de nouvelles définitions des lieux se rapprochant les unes des autres et non pas à des définitions alternatives. | fr | CIDOC CRM version 7.1.3 | 0 |
