Entity and Attribute Information -- What geographic information (roads, houses, elevation, temperature, etc.) is included? How is the information encoded? Were codes used? What do the codes mean?
entity instance -- a spatial phenomenon of a defined type that is embedded in one or more phenomena of different type, or that has at least one key attribute value different from the corresponding attribute values of surrounding phenomena (e.g.

Entity: Geographic feature that exists and is distinguishable in the real world. For example, a land parcel, road, building, manhole, or pole.
identity
The topological overlay (input) with a polygon coverage (identity). For each feature in the input coverage, the intersection with identity features is determined, creating new features of the same feature class as the input coverage.

his element is not used by ADS, as it causes too much confusion amongst users.
Feature A representation of a geographic entity, as a point, line, or polygon. Figure-Ground A visual image consists of two distict elements: the figure that has shape or substance and the ground that forms a background for the figure.

service A computation performed by a software entity on one side of an interface in response to a request made by a software entity on the other side of the interface.
A label is also needed to identify what the entity is. For example a section of railroad line could be represented by a line consisting of a starting and ending x, y coordinate and the label "railroad".

GRASS defines a vector area as composite entity consisting of a set of closed boundaries and a centroid. The centroids must contain a category number (see v.centroids), this number is linked to area attributes and database links.
The Group Agents are associated with sets of polygons ordered by geometric patterns (polygon clusters, sequence of polygons along a fictive line), thematic identity or similarity, topologic partition, or geographic regions.
