A location defined relative to a spatial reference system. |
example |
The cube-shaped region extending 1 metre in each direction from origo, the line extending 10 metres from origo along the z axis, two points with coordinates on a two-dimensional plane; the location of a container at 10:00 AM. |

primitive rationale |
To provide an account of space, or spatial reference system, is beyond the scope of IDO. |
scope note |
The position of a 'spatial location' is fixed (relative to the frame of reference); it is not dependent on changing positions of 'physical object's. |

usageNote |
The subclasses 'point in space', 'line in space', 'plane in space', and 'volume in space' are all defined as singular: for example, a 'point in space' individual may not have multiple points as parts. This, in contrast to the analogous BFO classes 'one-dimensional spatial region', etc., which are all defined as plural, allowing for disconnected parts. The extent of a 'spatial location' may be given either in terms of a spatial frame of reference, for instance with coordinates, or by position relative to material entities at a point in time. As with 'spatiotemporal region', a spatial location need not be connected; for example, a location may consist in several cube-shaped regions. |
