The inverse of gmeow:containedInPlace — a place that geographically contains another place. Under OWL 2 semantics, transitivity is entailed because containedInPlace is transitive. GMEOW does not assert additional transitive property chains beyond the inverse declaration; transitive closure is a solver concern (Principle 12).

Structure

Property shape: object property; gmeow:Place -> gmeow:Place

Practical Pattern

Use gmeow:containsPlace from gmeow:Place to gmeow:Place when the relationship itself belongs in the native GMEOW graph.

Usage Advice

Use when

• Use to read or assert the whole-to-part direction of geographic containment — the inverse of gmeow:containedInPlace.

Avoid when

• Avoid asserting it when the child-rooted gmeow:containedInPlace is the natural statement; avoid relying on it for transitive closure, which is a solver concern (Principle 12).

How to use

• Prefer asserting gmeow:containedInPlace and read gmeow:containsPlace by inversion; state it explicitly only in whole-rooted projections.

Examples

• ex:scotland gmeow:containsPlace ex:edinburgh.
