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

The medium of a storage location (a gmeow:StorageMedium individual). Functional: the medium is constitutive of the storage location (a different medium is a different store) — unlike the descriptive, multi-source gmeow:placeType.

Structure

Property shape: object property; gmeow:StorageLocation -> gmeow:StorageMedium; functional

Practical Pattern

Use gmeow:storageMedium from gmeow:StorageLocation to gmeow:StorageMedium when the relationship itself belongs in the native GMEOW graph.

Common Companion Terms

gmeow:StorageLocation, gmeow:StorageMedium

Usage Advice

Use when

• Use to declare the constitutive medium of a storage location; functional, because a different medium is a different store.

Avoid when

• Avoid for the descriptive, multi-source classification pattern (that is gmeow:placeType) — a store has exactly one medium.

How to use

• Set exactly one gmeow:StorageMedium individual; a change of medium is a different StorageLocation, not a second value.

Examples

• ex:bucket gmeow:storageMedium gmeow:storageMediumObjectStore.
