Naming of inverse relation of 'located_in' #184

Open GoogleCodeExporter opened 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago
In the BFO reference, the located_in is defined as 
"b located_in c at t = Def. b and c are independent continuants, and the region 
at which b is located at t is a (proper or improper) continuant_part_of the 
region at which c is located at t. 

exemplified by
"Empire State Building located_in New York." 

The inverse relation (not in BFO ref.) is named 'has_location'
'has_location' 
The naming suggests that this is not an inverse but just an alternative name
"Empire State Building has_location New York." 

I suggest to rename the inverse relation 'location of':
"New York location_of Empire State Building"
