Hi Armin,

how I understood you have an information resource and you want to assign =
this ressource as an occurrence to a topic and an association.=20

In this case you have to reify your occurrence. You create a topic =
(which we I call "OC-topic") and the subject of this topic is the =
information ressource which should be the occurrence. Than you can add =
an occurrence to your original topic which referrs to the new created =
OC-topic. After that you reify your association with a new topic. This =
topic gets as an occurrence which referrs to your OC-topic, too.

Does this solution sove your problem?

Best regards,
Lutz Maicher   =20

  Subject: [topicmapmail] link occurrence to an association and to a =
topic at the same time


  Hi,

  for my master-thesis, I have to build a topicmap-modell for a special =
domain. During modelling I got a question which I could not solve until =
today.
  Perhaps somebody can help me. I would be very thankful.

  In my model I want to link an occurrence to a topic and at the same =
time the same occurrence to an association, but did not find a way to =
model this aspect without
  creating two occurences containing the same ressource.
  With reification I can link the occurrence to the association, but =
this does not work with the topic.


  Thanks for your help on advance.
