MAN-MADE FEATURES Man-made features on land are shown in detail only when such information will be of interest to vessels; examples are bridges, overhead power lines, and piers. Other man-made features, such as roads and streets, may be shown in detail or generalized, as determined by their usefulness to navigation and by the scale of the chart. Specific names have been given to certain types of landmarks to standardize terminology; typical of these are house, stack, spire, tower, tank, and flagpole; abbreviations are also standardized. When two similar objects are so closely located that separate symbols cannot be used, the word "twin " is used with a single symbol. For groups, phrases such as "tallest of three" are used.
