activity start/end: direct time upgrades to instantaneous events

State:
CLOSED
Product:
Best Practice Cookbook
Raised by:
Timothy Lebo
Opened on:
2012-02-03
Description:
startedAtTime is part of prov-o.

one best practice that could emerge if dateTimes are inadequate for how one models time: use startedAt [ a :TimeInstant ].


I wrote [1] to contrast the options:

:activity
a prov:Activity;
# Unqualified start
prov:startedAtTime "2012-01-01T01:01:01-05:00"^^xsd:dateTime;
# Qualified Start
prov:startedAt [
a prov:TimeInstant;
prov:atTime "2012-01-01T01:01:01-05:00"^^xsd:dateTime;
];
