Left Operand

• CURIE: gmeow:LeftOperand
• IRI: https://blackcatinformatics.ca/gmeow/LeftOperand
• Category: class
• Defined by: gmeow:slices/rights
• Box roles: TBox role (What is this?)

The dimension an atomic constraint tests — an OPEN value vocabulary mirroring the ODRL leftOperand vocabulary (dateTime, spatial, count, purpose, recipient, industry, …).

Structure

Subclass of: gufo:QualityValue

Practical Pattern

Use gmeow:LeftOperand as a specialized kind of gufo:QualityValue. Add statement metadata or a standpoint when the assertion needs provenance, confidence, or vantage.

Usage Advice

Use when

• Use as the open value vocabulary for the constraint-dimension axis — the operand (dateTime, spatial, count, purpose, recipient, …) an atomic constraint tests, referenced via gmeow:leftOperand.

Avoid when

• Avoid minting per-dimension subclasses (operands are individuals, Principle 9) and avoid inventing a free-text dimension; reuse a seeded ODRL value or mint a fresh individual.

How to use

• Reference a seeded value (gmeow:leftOpDateTime, gmeow:leftOpSpatial, …) from gmeow:leftOperand; mint a new individual aligned to ODRL by reference when a needed dimension is missing.
