at place
sub property of: hasLocation
definition: a named or relatively specified place that is where an event happened.
issued: 2009-07-28
type: ObjectProperty
type: Thing
sub property of: topObjectProperty
property disjoint with: bottomObjectProperty
comment: This property relates an event to some meaningful place, which may have a name (e.g. "Paris") or may be defined relative to some other entity or entities (e.g. "the unincorporated area between Carson and Harbor Gateway"). An event may be related to more than one such place.
domain: Event
range: Place

Event
disjoint with: Nothing
issued: 2009-07-28
subclass of: Event
definition: "Something that happened," as might be reported in a news article or explained by a historian.
subclass of: E2 Temporal Entity
type: Class
equivalent class: Event
type: Thing
subclass of: Thing
comment: An event consists of some temporal and spatial boundaries subjectively imposed on the flux of reality or imagination, that we wish to treat as an entity for the purposes of making statements about it. In particular, we may wish to make statements that relate people, places, or things to an event.
comment: Note that, unlike some defintions of "event," this definition does not specify that an event involves a change of state, nor does it attempt to distinguish events from processes or states.

in space
definition: an abstract region of space (e.g. a geospatial point or region) that is where an event happened.
sub property of: hasRegion
type: ObjectProperty
type: Thing
type: FunctionalProperty
issued: 2009-07-28
property disjoint with: bottomObjectProperty
sub property of: place
sub property of: topObjectProperty
equivalent property: place
comment: Note that a statement that relates an event to a region of space using this property only asserts that an event occurred somewhere within the region and does not assert that it occurred everywhere within the region.
domain: Event
range: SpatialThing
comment: This property relates an event to some subjectively imposed spatial boundaries, i.e. a region of space. An event can be related to only one such region of space.

illustrate
definition: an event illustrated by some thing (typically a media object)
issued: 2010-10-07
type: Thing
sub property of: topObjectProperty
property disjoint with: bottomObjectProperty
type: ObjectProperty
comment: This property relates any thing (typically a media object) to an event which it illustrates, documents or comments upon.
domain: Thing
range: Event

circa
definition: an interval of time that can be precisely described using calendar dates and clock times.
issued: 2009-07-28
type: Thing
sub property of: topObjectProperty
property disjoint with: bottomObjectProperty
type: ObjectProperty
comment: An temporal relation expressing nearness in time.
comment: This property relates a span of time that cannot be precisely located in a chronological series to another span of time that can be precisely located, thus asserting that the latter is an approximation of the former.
domain: TemporalEntity
range: DateTimeInterval

involved
type: ObjectProperty
sub property of: topObjectProperty
issued: 2009-07-28
property disjoint with: bottomObjectProperty
sub property of: hasParticipant
equivalent property: hasParticipant
definition: a (physical, social, or mental) object involved in an event.
type: Thing
comment: This property relates an event to any physical, social, or mental object or substance. It does not imply any causal relationship or influence or any other kind of explanatory relationship such as creation, destruction, etc.
domain: Event
range: Object

at time

type: Thing
property disjoint with: bottomObjectProperty
sub property of: time
type: ObjectProperty
sub property of: topObjectProperty
sub property of: isObservableAt
sub property of: P4 has time-span
type: FunctionalProperty
definition: an abstract instant or interval of time that is when an event happened.
equivalent property: time
range: TemporalEntity
domain: Event
comment: Equivalent definitions from other ontologies: * C4DM Event ontology: "Relates an event to a time object, classifying a time region (either instantaneous or having an extent)."
comment: This property relates an event to some subjectively imposed temporal boundaries, i.e. a span of time. An event can be related to only one such span of time.

involved agent
type: ObjectProperty
definition: an agent involved in an event.

sub property of: hasParticipant
property disjoint with: bottomObjectProperty
sub property of: topObjectProperty
equivalent property: involvesAgent
sub property of: involvesAgent
sub property of: involved
type: Thing
range: Agent
domain: Event
comment: This property relates an event to anything with agency, such as a (legal or natural) person, a group, an organization, a computational agent, etc. It does not imply any causal relationship, influence, intentionality, etc.
