@TypeMetadata(name="HasCoverage", description="HasCoverage represents the type of coverage that is provided by the CoverageFacet. Let us consider a dataset containing information regarding the salinity of a specific ocean area in a certain amount of time. What is essential in the Information System is not representing the data of the salinity. Instead, what matters is specifying the temporal period and the ocean area for which the dataset is valid. This information is captured using the same schema i.e., the [CoverageFacet](type:CoverageFacet) but using different relations to distinguish between them with no need to understand the value or the schema of the coverage. For such a reason the abstract HasCoverage relation has been defined and the specialisations [HasTemporalCoverage](type:HasTemporalCoverage) and [HasSpatialCoverage](type:HasSpatialCoverage) have been defined to refine the reason of using the [CoverageFacet](type:CoverageFacet).", version="1.0.0") @Change(version="1.0.0", description="First Version") public interface HasCoverage<Out extends org.gcube.informationsystem.model.reference.entities.Resource,In extends CoverageFacet> extends org.gcube.informationsystem.model.reference.relations.ConsistsOf<Out,In>HasCoverage represents the type of coverage that is provided by the CoverageFacet.
