New scope note


     E93 Spacetime Snapshot

Subclass of: E92 <#_E92_Spacetime_Volume> Spacetime Volume

Scope note:This class comprises instances of E92 Spacetime Volume that result from intersection of instances of E92 Spacetime Volume with an instance of E52 Time-Span.The identity of an instance of this class is determined by the identities of the constituing spacetime volume and the time-span.

This class can be used to define temporal snapshots at a particular time-span, such as the extent of the Roman Empire at 33 B.C., or the extent occupied by a museum object at rest in an exhibit. In particular, it can be used to define the spatial projection of a spacetime volume during a particular time-span, such as the maximal spatial extent of a flood at some particular hour, or all areas covered by the Poland within the 20th century AD

The task: "Revise the scope note of E52 to express the requirement of 
continuity"

needs no action, as I understand: "having a beginning, an end and a
duration" expresses continuity.


     E52 Time-Span

Subclass of:E1 <#_E1_CRM_Entity> CRM Entity

Scope note:This class comprises abstract temporal extents, in the sense of Galilean physics, having a beginning, an end and a duration.
