Notes
Simple DC contains two "indexing" elements: subject and coverage.
- In Qualified DC, coverage is refined by two qualifiers: temporal and spatial.
Instead of trying to implement Simple and Qualified separately, use the standard Qubit access points interface with DC labels.
- Means using DC Qualified even in DC Simple template.
Subject
- DC subject element.
- Handle by Qubit term via related records in object_term_relation table.
Name
- No strict DC equivalent (but can be mapped to DC subject).
- Handle by Qubit actor::authorized_form_of_name via related records in event table.
Coverage - spatial
- DC spatial qualifier (refines DC coverage element).
- Handle by Qubit place via related records in object_term_relation table.
Coverage - temporal
- DC temporal qualifier (refines DC coverage element).
- Handle by Qubit historical_event via related records in object)_term_relation table.
