A maximal common definition is identified relative to a set of definitions for the same term. The maximal common definition identifies the maximal semantics for a term that are shared between each definition in the set. Currently, one maximal common definition is identified for each term in the city data model. The purpose of these definitions is to clearly identify the shared meaning that all stakeholders have in common regarding a particular term. In the future, we may look at extending this analysis to identify pairwise maximal common definitions (i.e. to identify the semantics shared between to specialized definitions of a term).

To do: make this definition more precise and add example
