An English description of the definition (what distinguishes this sense of the term?).
An Organization represents a collection of people organized together into a community or other social, commercial or political structure. The group has some common purpose or reason for existence which goes beyond the set of people belonging to it. An organization may itself be able to act as an agent. Organizations provide another source of influence on the behaviour in the urban system. An organization is defined broadly as a formal or semi-formal groups for which structure and behaviour are defined. Organizations such as schools and businesses are particularly important for cities as they determine regular travel patterns and other activities for much of the population. The Organization Ontology is drawn from the TOVE model of an Organization, originally presented in. In particular, definitions of the concepts of Organization, Organization Agent, Role, and Goal are adopted here. In addition, the Organization Ontology introduces the concepts of Students and Employees who are members of certain types of Organizations. Using the Spatial Location ontology, the Organization ontology captures the location of a person's work or school. The Change Ontology is used to support the representation of variable attributes of an organization, such as its location and members.
