• Category: property
• Defined by: gmeow:slices/temporal
• Box roles: RBox role (What is this?)

Allen EQUALS: this interval and the related interval share the same temporal extent. Symmetric and transitive. TEMPORAL simultaneity only, never identity of the intervals themselves. (= time:intervalEquals)

Structure

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

Practical Pattern

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

Usage Advice

Use when

• Use when two distinct intervals share exactly the same start and end — co-extensive spans such as a fiscal year and an audit window that are temporally simultaneous but ontologically different things.

Avoid when

• Avoid reading it as identity of the intervals — it asserts temporal simultaneity only, never owl:sameAs (Principle 5); two coinciding intervals remain distinct individuals.

How to use

• Assert between the two co-extensive gmeow:TimeInterval individuals; symmetric and transitive, so the reverse and any chained equalities follow (= time:intervalEquals).

Examples

• ex:fiscalYear2024 gmeow:intervalCoincidesWith ex:auditPeriod.
