Class Name: Contained Within Feature Face
Definition
The one-directional topological relationship between a
Feature Node and the
Feature Face within which it is contained.

Example
- A Feature Face representing part of an ocean
contains 2 Feature Nodes, which represent 2 oil
platforms. The Feature Nodes must each have a
Contained Within Feature Face
component, which is in turn associated with the
Feature Face. Note that the
Feature Face would have 2
Contained Feature Node components,
each of which would in turn have one of the 2
Feature Nodes as components.
FAQs
- When is a Contained Within
Feature Face object required?
- At feature topology levels
3
and
4, a Feature Node object is required to
have a Contained Within Feature
Face component if it is located within the boundaries of a
Feature Face. At feature topology levels
0
through
2, the Contained Within
Feature Face component is optional if the
Feature Node is located within a
Feature Face. If a
Feature Node is not located within the
boundaries of a Feature Face, it must not have
a Contained Within Feature Face
component.
- What is the relationship between the
Contained Within Feature Face
class and the Contained Feature Node
class?
- The Contained Within Feature
Face class and the Contained Feature
Node class form the two halves of the bidirectional topological
relationship between Feature Faces and
Feature Nodes. Whenever a
Feature Face is associated with the
Contained Feature Node component of a
Feature Node, that same
Feature Node must be the component of a
Contained Feature Node component of
that Feature Face and vice versa, if the
topology level is
3 or higher.
