positional attribute
Attributes characterizing the orientation of an Object, e.g. Vertical versus Horizontal, Left versus Right etc.
Relationships      
Parents relational attribute Any Attribute that an Entity has by virtue of a relationship that it bears to another Entity or set of Entities, e.g. SocialRoles and PositionalAttributes.
Children anti_symmetric positional attributeAntiSymmetricPositionalAttribute is the class of PositionalAttribute that hold in only one direction. I.e. two objects cannot simulataneously be On each other.
 directional attributeThe subclass of PositionalAttributes that concern compass directions.
 rotational attributeA PositionalAttribute characterizing the direction of Rotating.
 symmetric positional attributeSymmetricAttribute is the class of PositionalAttribute that hold between two items regardless of their order or orientation.
InstancesaboveThis is a PositionalAttribute derived from the up/down schema and not involving contact. Note that this means directly above, i.e., if one object is Above another object, then the projections of the two objects overlap.
 belowThis PositionalAttribute is derived from the up/down schema and may or may not involve contact. Note that this means directly below, i.e., if one object is Below another object, then the projections of the two objects overlap.
 downhillDownhill is a PositionalAttribute that describes the relation between two things, one of which is located down a slope from the other.
 downstairsA PositionalAttribute to indicate that one thing is one or more floors below a second thing in the same building.
 downstream
 downwindDownwind is a PositionalAttribute that indicates relative position downwind (leeward) with respect to the direction that the Wind is blowing.
 horizontalAttribute used to indicate that an Object is positioned width-wise with respect to another Object.
 insideInside is a PositionalAttribute used to describe the relative location of one object or region to another region.
 leftThis PositionalAttribute is derived from the left/right schema. Note that this means directly to the left, so that, if one object is to the left of another, then the projections of the two objects overlap.
 outsideOutside is a PositionalAttribute used to describe the relative location of one object or region to another region.
 rightThis PositionalAttribute is derived from the left/right schema. Note that this means directly to the right, so that, if one object is to the right of another, then the projections of the two objects overlap.
 right angleAny TwoDimensionalAngle that has the angularMeasure of 90 AngularDegrees.
 surroundedSurrounded describes how an object or a collection of objects meetsSpatially with all sides of another object
 uphillUphill is a PositionalAttribute that describes the relation between two things, one of which is located up a slope from the other.
 upstairsA PositionalAttribute to indicate that one thing is one or more floors above a second thing in the same building.
 upstream
 upwindUpwind is a PositionalAttribute that indicates relative position upwind (windward) with respect to the direction that the Wind is blowing.
 verticalAttribute used to indicate that an Object is positioned height-wise with respect to another Object.
