Ponds

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.

Rock formations

Rock is a broad normalized type for a named natural outcrop, isolated block, exposed mass, sea stack, monolith, tor, or other prominent rocky landmark that lacks a more specific category. It represents an individual geographic entity rather than rock material in general. Source subtype and descriptive context are essential because the category covers forms with very different scales and origins.

Natural springs

A spring is a natural outlet where groundwater emerges at the land surface and may feed a stream, pool, wetland, lake, or river. Springs form where aquifers, fractures, permeable layers, or water tables intersect the surface and can be permanent, seasonal, thermal, mineralized, or intermittent. The general type excludes a hot spring or geyser unless geothermal heating or eruptive behavior is specifically established.
