Event

Something that occurs over a period of time, often characterized as an activity being carried out by some person, organization, or software application or brought about by natural forces.

A transaction, conference, baseball game, earthquake.

An event does not necessarily have either planned or actual start or end datetimes. For example, a conference can be in the planning phase without any dates selected, but is nevertheless an (unscheduled) event. The subclasses of gist:Event state particular restrictions on planned and actual start and end dates.

An event occurs during a time interval, which is distinct from the event.
