has coordinate observation
- CURIE:
gmeow:hasCoordinateObservation - IRI: https://blackcatinformatics.ca/gmeow/hasCoordinateObservation
- Category: property
- Defined by:
gmeow:slices/places - Box roles: RBox role (What is this?)
Links a place to a coordinate observation that assigned coordinates or geometry to it. Non-functional: multiple surveys (GPS, LiDAR, total station) may coexist for the same place (Principle 9), and no observation is privileged.
Structure
Property shape: object property; gmeow:Place -> gmeow:CoordinateObservation
Sub-property of: gmeow:hasSpatialMeasurement
Practical Pattern
Use gmeow:hasCoordinateObservation from gmeow:Place to gmeow:CoordinateObservation when the relationship itself belongs in the native GMEOW graph.
Common Companion Terms
gmeow:hasSpatialMeasurement, gmeow:Place, gmeow:CoordinateObservation

Usage Advice
Use when
- Use to link a place to the coordinate observations that assigned coordinates/geometry to it; non-functional, so multiple surveys coexist.
Avoid when
- Avoid privileging one survey (Principle 9); the flat
gmeow:hasCoordinatesis derived from this path by property chain.
How to use
- Attach CoordinateObservations via
gmeow:hasCoordinateObservation; the flatgmeow:hasCoordinates/gmeow:hasGeometryfollow from the chain throughgmeow:coordinateResult/gmeow:geometryResult.
