A contact region represents the connection between two grid tiles. The grid tiles are referenced using a fully qualified specification that includes the references to the mosaic(s) that the grid tile is a child of, as well a reference to the tile itself. This allows contact regions to be specified between tiles in different mosaics.

Contact regions can't be instantiated (used directly); instead there are two sub-types available:

  • Overlaps can be specified where two grid tiles intersect. Overlaps take the form of an "exchange grid", which has the same number of dimensions as the "parent" grid tiles.
  • Boundaries can be specified where two grid tiles meet but do not cross. Boundaries have one dimension fewer than their "parent" grid tiles.
