Waterways, such as rivers or lakes, will be represented with incised surfaces or undulating textures to evoke the fluidity of water, and the same may be done for the sea. Forests may be identified with rough and dense textures, while deserts or beaches may have a more uniform or dotted finish. There will, of course, be Braille descriptions and tactile symbols to indicate trails, refuges, viewpoints or nature reserves.<br>Within the tactile model, built-up areas, connecting networks with a
