		<p>
			A <ref target="geo:SpatialThing">Spatial Thing</ref> which this <ref target="foaf:Person">Person</ref> is “based near”.
		</p>
		<p>
			“Near” is intentionally vague, but intended to be generally human‐scale.
			“Based” is even more confusing, but the implication is that some significant amount of a Person¦s activities occur where they are “based”.
		</p>
		<p>
			<ptr target="(FOAF)"/> defines the domain of this property merely as Spatial Things; this ontology restricts it specifically to Persons.
			There isn¦t a good definition of “based” for things which aren¦t at least <ref target="foaf:Agent">Agents</ref>, and most non‐Person Agents are conceptual rather than physical (i·e, they aren¦t Spatial Things).
			So, expanding the domain beyond Persons would mostly just invite confusion.
		</p>
		<p>
			<ptr target="contact:nearestAirport"/> is suggested as a possible alternative.
