OBSERVED_BREAK_OF_SLOPE
OBSERVED_BREAK_OF_SLOPE edge/relationship definition.
Description
Connects an ( :Activity ) node to a CUT ( :Place:Context ) node to record that this Activity observed/recorded the break of slope at the Cut's top and bottom.
Analogy
Join row(s) or table(s) linking Activities to the observation of a Cut's break of slope.
CIDOC-CRM Mapping
MAYBE include a short summmary here, but leave the details for the designated CIDOC-CRM section.
Relevant Nodes, Directions, and Cardinality
[ :Activity:FieldworkProcess ] ——[ :OBSERVED_CUT_BREAK_OF_SLOPE ]——> @[0..*] [ :Place:Context ] ⟵ @[0..*]
- Each FieldworkProcess may observe the break of slope for zero or many Cut Contexts.
- Each Context may have multiple break of slope observations by different FieldworkProcess activities.

POSSIBLE: System/Audit Properties
Need to decide if we should include the full (or a partial) audit trail for edge/relationships. I'm leaning toward YES.(these are not required/enforced by Neo4j but are populated via the UJAP Database web application; these could also be handled—perhaps more simply—by edge/relationship to AuditEvent nodes)
