If two mappers disagreed where exactly a certain underwater feature was, <br>
how could that dispute be resolved? Are these names relating to <br>
geographical features or sunken objects so that they could - in theory <br>
and with the right diving equipment - be verified "on the ground"?<br>
<br>
Or is the only means of verification "check LINZ / Wikidata / ..."?<br>
<br>
