12 objects on Earth · No coastline dataset is held in this repository and none can be fetched here. A hand-drawn outline would be invented geometry sitting next to sourced coordinates at the same visual weight, so the map shows the graticule and the points, and names each place beside it.

area
A region, drawn as one. The centre is not a location.
soft
A curatorial choice within a larger extent. The mark is near, not at.
Not on this map
