Hi, just for clarification about my comment about so:matches during the call and the minutes: I meant to make a connection to existing related work and the authors conceptual/philosophical considerations/justifications for the different kinds of similarity. It was not my intention to introduce an explicit triple stating "sdw:samePlaceAs sub-property of so:matches", (as unfortunately the ontology down) but I rather wanted to raise the question of whether this would be conceptually the case and if so, so:match's definition could serve as an inspiration for that of swd:samePlaceAs.

However, I am swayed by the argument that “samePlaceAs” is a bit more specialised (it seems to say something a bit more. If informally, about which properties could be substituted). But I cannot follow the argument from the minutes concerning why sdw:samePlaceAs should not be defined as a subproperty of so:matches. > > Does it relate to the status of the so ontology? > > Further, if we are going to do this at all I suggest a few other basic informal spatial relationships (of the top of my head) : sdw:NextDoorTo, sdw:closestSimilar, sdw:Nearby (or foaf:basedNear), sdw:sameLocality, sdw:withinEasyReachof, sdw:justDowntheRoadFrom, …. Or something like that. For commercial businesses, real estate agents, community groups (remember the fete?), social scientists? Most of these would be neither transitive nor reflexive but maybe some are symmetric. > > Kerry >
