en
The party(s) located at the associated Location.
The intent of this relationship is to illustrate that based upon the relationship between a Party and a Location and the purpose of that location (LOCATION TYPE) then any number of geographic measurements can be added to LOCATION and used to provide or infer information about the Party at that Location.
Additional foreign key relationships can be added to LOCATION to extend and enhance the information therein. In this model only the most significant relationships have been drawn, which show up as foreign key relationships in LOCATION.
This same concept can be applied to any geographic - Party - Location relationship.

has.entitySchemaAbstractionLevel
A level of abstraction assigned to an Entity schema. Logical schema descriptions use complex dataTypes, inheritance, and entities as attributes. Resolved descriptions contain none of those things, only final trait and attribute sets are shown. A composition schema manipulates, guides or restates parts of logical schemas to produce one resolved schema.
