primary_role (I, V: SET[0:?] space_time_operation(primary_object))

Indicates a space/time operation for which the object is involved as a primary agent. For degeneration, this object is being degenerated.

primary_topological_relationship (I, V: SET[0:?] topological_relationship(primary_topological_object))

Indicates a topological relationship in which the topologic object has the role of primary agent. For an object intersection type of "inside" this is the containing role (e.g., if a city is inside a county then the county would be the primary agent). For all other object intersection types the roles are symmetrical and both relationships must be searched for a particular object. For example, if a wellbore and a formation overlap then either could be chosen as the primary agent with the other chosen as the secondary agent.

secondary_topological_relationship (I, V: SET[0:?] topological_relationship(secondary_topological_object))

Indicates a topological relationship in which the object is in the role of secondary agent. For an object intersection type of "inside" this is the contained role (e.g., if a well is inside a field then the well would be the secondary agent). For all other object intersection types the roles are symmetrical and both relationships must be searched for a particular object. For example, if a wellbore and a formation overlap then either could be chosen as the secondary agent with the other chosen as the primary agent. Each earth_position_ring may be involved in one or more topological_relationship. Inherited from topological_object.


source_space_time_operation (I, V: BAG[0:1] space_time_operation(resulting_object))

Indicates the space/time operation from which a topological object was the result. For addition, this is the union of two objects. For degeneration, this is the degenerate object. Each earth_position_ring may be the result of one space_time_operation. Inherited from topological_object.


synthetic_log_trace (O, I: synthetic_log_trace(position_in_earth_model))

Indicates a synthetic log trace which is positioned in the earth at this location. Each earth_position_ring may locate one synthetic_log_trace. Inherited from position_in_earth_model.

Local rules:

Uniqueness Constraint
identifier, identifying_whole, seismic_geometry_set, geologic_feature, geoscience_interpretation
[I: earth_position_simple] Same Related Instance
Any instance of EARTH POSITION SIMPLE that is identified by an EARTH POSITION COMPOSITE must be part of that EARTH POSITION COMPOSITE.
[I: earth_position_simple] Optional Relationship Set
Each instance may represent a geologic_feature or be identified by an identifying_whole.
[I: earth_position_simple] Instance Value Constraint
If the instance partially identifies a seismic_geometry_set, then it must also be part of an identifying_whole.
