measurement uncertainty
- CURIE:
gmeow:measurementUncertainty - IRI: https://blackcatinformatics.ca/gmeow/measurementUncertainty
- Category: property
- Defined by:
gmeow:slices/temporal - Box roles: RBox role (What is this?)
The uncertainty (e.g. ±1 sigma) of a temporal measurement, in the same unit as the measured age.
Structure
Property shape: datatype property; gmeow:TemporalMeasurement -> xsd:decimal; functional
Practical Pattern
Use gmeow:measurementUncertainty from gmeow:TemporalMeasurement to xsd:decimal when the relationship itself belongs in the native GMEOW graph.

Usage Advice
Use when
- Use to record the spread (e.g. ±1σ) of a temporal measurement's age, in the same unit as
gmeow:measuredAge— the quantitative error bar on a dating claim.
Avoid when
- Avoid mixing units (it shares
gmeow:hasUnitwithgmeow:measuredAge) and avoid using it to express ontic determinacy; that isgmeow:measurementDeterminacy, an orthogonal facet (P9).
How to use
- Write an xsd:decimal in the measurement's unit; the fuzzy/probabilistic interval arithmetic that consumes it lives in the solver layer (P12).
