- CURIE:
gmeow:eventFromLocation - IRI: https://blackcatinformatics.ca/gmeow/eventFromLocation
- Category: property
- Defined by:
gmeow:slices/events - Box roles: RBox role (What is this?)
The origin of a movement event — where a migration, move, journey, or relocation departed from. A specialisation of gmeow:eventLocation (the origin IS a location of the event), so plain location consumers still see it. Pairs with gmeow:eventToLocation; the endpoint pair is the discrete sibling of the continuous gmeow:eventTrajectory (schema:MoveAction's fromLocation).
Structure
Property shape: object property; gmeow:Event -> gmeow:Location
Sub-property of: gmeow:eventLocation
Practical Pattern
Use gmeow:eventFromLocation from gmeow:Event to gmeow:Location when the relationship itself belongs in the native GMEOW graph.

Usage Advice
Use when
- Use for the origin of a movement event — where a migration, move, journey, or procession departed from — paired with
gmeow:eventToLocationfor the discrete endpoint case.
Avoid when
- Avoid it for a stationary event (use plain
gmeow:eventLocation), and avoid the endpoint pair when a continuous path is needed — usegmeow:eventTrajectoryfor the space-time curve instead.
How to use
- Assert
gmeow:eventFromLocationandgmeow:eventToLocationas the move's endpoints; both subpropertygmeow:eventLocation, so plain-location consumers still see them as locations of the event.
