Rationale

Continents are in Map Features but not oceans. Map Features does not yet have good support for labelling marine features. This, in conjunction with place=sea, are proposals for top-level features. All oceans are already identified with this tag.

Proposal

For identifying and locating the world's oceans seas Wikipedia:Ocean:

  • Arctic Ocean
  • Atlantic Ocean
  • Indian Ocean
  • Pacific Ocean
  • Southern Ocean


Tag values
