Location

One of the key questions of spatiality is location (dimension 1): where can it be found? Where are sports clubs? Where are stadiums built? What nationalities are the most talented players? At the same time the spatial dispersion of these elements may result in different relative situations and extensional configurations (e.g.: table tennis is concentrated locally in Budapest). Semantically there is a difference between place/venue and location/disposition: the previous has a complex content whereas the latter refers to spatial positions. Concerning its dynamics which carries the shift along time axis the expression of spatial motion can be used to characterise this phenomenon (ice hockey spreads from Canada). It often covers some time-context that influences the results (e.g.: there has not been change in case of the European water polo as in the past 50 years it has been Europe which gave world class sportsmen but it is not true if we look at the results of the past 100 years).
