Landform Type

This dimension groups landforms by what kind of feature each one is, a mountain, a valley, a canyon or a peninsula. Wikipedia defines a landform simply as "a land feature on the solid surface of the Earth or other planetary body," a category broad enough to cover everything from hills to ocean ridges. Browsing by landform type keeps comparable shapes of terrain together.
