<div>Well, I think that some kind natural=scree | bare_rock or
glacier on some areas. It still is a natural feature that
somehow be described (for example using natural tags). I knew
function or design is not the correct term but I knew no better
one in English. It is not always planned as some are just
natural features.<br>

<div>According to this image [1], the landcover is then
continental ice. You can tag something as natural=sand then has
the landcover tag desert or so. That is in my opinion the
difference.<br>

<div>Can you please tell me the "function or design" of the area

<p>Many parts of the world have little function or 'design'. These
are usually in the less populated areas of the world... <br>
</p>
While various 'research' stations exist in Antarctica most of it has
no land use that I could map. <br>
