event interval

• CURIE: gmeow:eventInterval
• IRI: https://blackcatinformatics.ca/gmeow/eventInterval
• Category: property
• Defined by: gmeow:slices/events
• Box roles: RBox role (What is this?)

The crisp, known time interval over which an event occurred (reuses the temporal module's gmeow:TimeInterval). For a point-like occurrence use gmeow:eventTime; for an approximate date use gmeow:earliestStart / gmeow:latestEnd + gmeow:temporalPrecision.

Structure

Property shape: object property; gmeow:Event -> gmeow:TimeInterval

Practical Pattern

Use gmeow:eventInterval from gmeow:Event to gmeow:TimeInterval when the relationship itself belongs in the native GMEOW graph.

Usage Advice

Use when

• Use when an event has a crisp, known span with both endpoints — a conference, a tour, a siege — that anchors it in time.

Avoid when

• Avoid it for a point-like instant (use gmeow:eventTime), for an approximate date (use gmeow:earliestStart / gmeow:latestEnd + gmeow:temporalPrecision), and for a bare LENGTH with no anchor (use gmeow:hasDuration).

How to use

• Point the gmeow:Event at a gmeow:TimeInterval whose endpoints are xsd:dateTime; carry a non-default calendar on gmeow:eventTemporalFrame (Principle 11).

Examples

• ex:conference gmeow:eventInterval ex:sept2024.
