POSC Specifications: Epicentre Version 3.0 | Logical Data Model |
A type of activity which takes place over geologic time and results in the formation, characterization, and spatial topology of geologic features.
- identifier (M, K: ndt_identifier) (C001, C049)
- The label used to distinguish an instance of a geologic process.
- description (O, I: ndt_comment) (C117)
- A remark or comment about the instance. Inherited from e_and_p_data.
- instance_create_date (O, I: ndt_date_tod) (C126)
- This is the date that this instance was created. This date is defined by the source if imported, or is the date the instance is created if a new instance. Inherited from e_and_p_data.
- instance_creator (O, I: ndt_identifier) (C126)
- This is the person, company or application that created this instance. This identifies the party responsible for loading this instance. Inherited from e_and_p_data.
- last_updated (O, I: ndt_date_tod) (C126)
- This is the date that this instance was last updated. This value should be updated when any part of this instance is altered (except for inverse relationships). Inherited from e_and_p_data.
- last_updated_by (O, I: ndt_identifier) (C126)
- This records the person or application making the update to this instance. Inherited from e_and_p_data.
- source (O, I: ndt_identifier) (C126)
- The provider of this instance, which is usually a data provider for imported/purchased data. If this instance is provided by POSC, then this attribute must be "POSC". Inherited from e_and_p_data.
- containing_activity (V: SET[0:?] geologic_process_composition(member_activity)) (C053)
- Specifies a major geologic process for which this process is a subsidiary activity. Each geologic_process may be a part of one or more geologic_process_composition.
- data_collection (I, V: SET[0:?] data_collection_content(collection_part)) (C020)
- Indicates the data collections that include this instance of E and P data. Each geologic_process may be a member of one or more data_collection_content. Inherited from e_and_p_data.
- document_information_content (I, V: SET[0:?] document_information_content(e_and_p_data)) (C136)
- These are the document specification parts that include this data value and define its meaning within a document specification. Each use may define a different meaning, and many uses are allowed. Each geologic_process may be included in one or more document_information_content. Inherited from e_and_p_data.
- following_position_in_sequence (V: SET[0:?] geologic_process_sequence(following_geologic_process))
- Indicates that this process is preceded by other geologic processes. Each geologic_process may following position in sequence one or more geologic_process_sequence.
- geologic_feature (V: SET[0:?] geologic_feature_process_assn(geologic_process)) (C053)
- Specifies various geologic features which were produced by this geologic process. Each geologic_process may produce one or more geologic_feature_process_assn.
- geologic_process_alias (V: SET[0:?] geologic_process_alias(aliased_object)) (C029)
- Indicates the various identifiers by which this instance is known. Each geologic_process may be known by one or more geologic_process_alias.
- graphical_element (I, V: SET[0:?] graphical_element(depicted_object))
- Specifies one or more graphical elements which are depicting this data item. Each geologic_process may be depicted by one or more graphical_element. Inherited from e_and_p_data.
- kind (O: geologic_process_class(geologic_process)) (C058)
- Indicates the prototype or specification for this geologic process. Each geologic_process may be an occurrence of one geologic_process_class.
- member_activity (V: SET[0:?] geologic_process_composition(containing_activity)) (C053)
- Specifies minor geologic processes which make up the details of this geologic process. Each geologic_process may be composed of one or more geologic_process_composition.
- naming_system (O: naming_system(geologic_process)) (C028)
- The naming system in which the identifier is specified and determined to be unique. Each geologic_process may have name specified by one naming_system.
- preceding_sequence_position (V: SET[0:?] geologic_process_sequence(preceding_geologic_process))
- Indicates that this process is followed by other geologic processes. Each geologic_process may leading position in sequence one or more geologic_process_sequence.
- pty_geologic_age (V: SET[0:?] pty_geologic_age(geologic_process))
- Each geologic_process may have a property of one or more pty_geologic_age.
- pty_geologic_age_range (V: SET[0:?] pty_geologic_age_range(geologic_process))
- Each geologic_process may have a property of one or more pty_geologic_age_range.
