Point
The Point class represents a closed interval in space-time over a single variant (point in space) or a single point in space-time by adding a single version (that is optional). The interval targets one particular variant that is inferred by the usage context of the interval.

Properties
Technical database (JPA) identifier used for relation joins. The dataID is system specific and not exported to XML. It must not be used to identify elements in distributed use-cases. It should not be used to identify elements from outside the service. All model elements provide other suitable identifiers to be used.
Binds the variantTime to a specific version ID. This field optional but its usage is strongly proposed due to the ambiguity of a variant timestamp alone.
Defines the timestamp of the single variant (point in space, range in time) as a UTC instant. This field is required.
Binds the versionTime to a specific version ID to resolve unambiguity, This field optional.
Defines the timestamp of the single version (point in time) as a UTC instant. This field is optional. Using a version time collapses the range to one single point in space-time, i.e., a single variant+version pair.
