A pond is a relatively small body of standing water occupying a natural or modified depression. It may be permanent, seasonal, spring-fed, rain-fed, stream-connected, glacial, karstic, or biologically influenced, but none of those properties follows from the label alone. The boundary between pond and lake varies across local naming systems and cannot be reduced to one universal size or depth threshold.
A bay is a body of water partly enclosed by a curved or recessed shoreline while remaining openly connected to a larger sea, ocean, or lake. Its form may reflect erosion, drowned valleys, glacial excavation, faulting, volcanic structure, sediment barriers, or other coastal processes. The category describes geographic enclosure and should not be treated as synonymous with a gulf, lagoon, harbor, or estuary when the source uses a more specific identity.
A forest in this taxonomy is a named, geographically identifiable area dominated by trees and associated vegetation. It is modeled as an individual mapped natural feature rather than as the generic forest habitat or biome category used to classify broad ecological conditions. Its identity may come from local geography, administrative recognition, traditional naming, or a distinct woodland area, none of which alone establishes composition or ecological condition.

This dataset provides clear geographic context for individual ice bodies, highlighting their role in shaping mountain valleys and regional mountain environments through long-term accumulation and erosion.
A gorge is a narrow, steep-sided valley or ravine with a confined floor, commonly produced by river incision through resistant rock. Geological structure, uplift, glacial inheritance, collapse, and mass wasting may also influence its shape. The distinction from a canyon is not universal, so established naming and feature-specific evidence should take precedence over an imposed size threshold.
A reservoir is a body of stored water created or substantially modified through a dam, impoundment, excavation, diversion, or other managed water-control system. Although it can become integrated into surrounding landscapes and ecosystems, its form or water regime is materially influenced by human infrastructure. It must therefore remain distinct from a naturally formed lake in generated descriptions.
Stone is a normalized type for a discrete named boulder, block, standing stone-like natural object, or compact rock landmark recognized as one individual feature. It is narrower in scope than the broad ROCK category and does not describe a large outcrop, cliff, or geological unit. A source must establish whether the object is naturally positioned, glacially transported, weathered in place, or associated with human activity.
