# geoEquals

Represents spatial relations in which two geometries (or the places they represent) are topologically equal, as defined in [DE-9IM](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DE-9IM). "Two geometries are topologically equal if their interiors intersect and no part of the interior or boundary of one geometry intersects the exterior of the other" (a symmetric relationship).

## Expected Types

| Type | Description |
|------|-------------|
| [GeospatialGeometry](https://schema.org.ai/GeospatialGeometry) | (Eventually to be defined as) a supertype of GeoShape designed to accommodate definitions from Geo-Spatial best practices. |
| [Place](https://schema.org.ai/Place) | Entities that have a somewhat fixed, physical extension. |
