event temporal frame

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

The temporal frame in which the event's date/interval is expressed — explicit for non-default frames (Principle 11).

Structure

Property shape: object property; gmeow:Event -> gmeow:TemporalFrame; functional Sub-property of: gmeow:hasReferenceFrame

Practical Pattern

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

Usage Advice

Use when

Use to declare the temporal frame an event's date/interval is expressed in whenever it is NON-default — a non-Gregorian calendar, an astronomical scale — making the frame explicit (Principle 11).

Avoid when

Avoid asserting it for the default gmeow:temporalFrameUTCGregorian (it is the assumed frame), and avoid stating two frames for one event — it is functional, one frame per event.

How to use

Point the gmeow:Event at one gmeow:TemporalFrame via gmeow:eventTemporalFrame (a subproperty of gmeow:hasReferenceFrame) alongside its date triples; absent, the UTC-Gregorian default is assumed.

Examples

ex:festival gmeow:eventTemporalFrame ex:hebrewCalendar.
