SHORELINE Definition: The line where the land meets a designated waterbody area on the mainland, and on marine or terrestrial islands. Alternate Terms: | Automatically generated from the associated waterbody areas. Capture as a 2D polyline Shorelines do no cross other shorelines e.g., where two watercourse area features meet, the common line is called a Feature Type “Shoreline Junction”. Shorelines are not captured coincident with a Feature Type “Dam Wall Major” Shorelines are not captured when coincident with a Feature Type “Coastline Junction”

SHORELINE JUNCTION Definition: The artificial line between two adjoining waterbody areas. Alternate Terms: | Automatically generated from the associated waterbody areas Capture as a 2D polyline No “Shoreline Junction” Feature Type is captured when coincident with a “Coastline Junction” Feature Type The attribute Junction Code is determined by the Upper_scale value of the associated Shoreline feature. See Codes
 Where two waterbody areas meet and they have a different Upper_scale value, the Junction Code of both features will be the larger Junction Code. e.g., if a 1:1 000 000 waterbody areas meets meet a 1:25 000 waterbody area, the Junction Code of both features will be 4. No Shoreline Junction feature is shown between two waterbody areas that have the same Upper_scale value.
