Types of contact among features
3. To overlay or to cover

Caitlin Chaves Yates – March 2011

The verbs “to overlay or cover” represent the majority of the J2 types of contacts with a combined 50% of all contacts. These two types of contact are to be expected in an open air area that built up slowly over time. The thin floors and thick layers both built-up one on top of each other, creating the many instances of these types of contact.
