[talk-ph] Correcting sawtooth coastlines, plotting white beaches

Hi,

While I was correcting coastlines from various islands using Landsat as
reference, I encountered several coastal areas that obviously had white
beaches ... Some are very white!  I am tempted and  thinking of adding them
as natural:beach as I encounter them.

Question:  Are beaches inland relative to the coastline?  or are they
seaward from the coastline (where the coastline is drawn along the actual
start of land)?

thanks!
