Sea and coastal names worldwide

Marine toponymy data layer obtained from French ENC and created using the S23 (4th edition, June 2002). Note: The usual Sea of Japan designation does not imply taking a stand in the dispute between Korea, which names this sea "East Sea", and Japan, which names it "Sea of Japan".
