• Category: class
• Defined by: gmeow:slices/places
• Box roles: TBox role (What is this?)

The kind of a virtual location (video conference, chat space, metaverse room, website, social media page, …). A value, not a subclass: the set is open-ended and they share all of VirtualLocation's structure, so a new kind is a new individual, not a new class (Principle 9).

Structure

Subclass of: gufo:QualityValue

Practical Pattern

Use gmeow:VirtualLocationType 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

Avoid when

• Avoid creating a VirtualLocation subclass for a new kind (the kinds share all structure; a new kind is a new individual, Principle 9).

How to use

• Mint the kind as a gmeow:VirtualLocationType individual and reference it from data via gmeow:virtualLocationType.
