# tidalboundarycontinuoushighdescriptionvalue This code list is used in association with the Description attribute which is present within the Tidal Boundary Continuous High Feature Type. The code list describes the state of the tide that the feature represents (for example, Mean High Water or Normal Tidal Limit).
LabelDefinition

Mean High Water

The average alignment of the high tide line that occurs halfway between spring and neap tides. Represented in England and Wales only.

Mean High Water Springs

The average alignment of the high tide line that occurs when the effects of the sun and moon are in alignment, resulting in a larger than normal tidal range. Represented in Scotland only.

Normal Tidal Limit

The highest point in tidal rivers to which mean tides (in Scotland, mean spring tides) flow at high water where there is no other feature present.
