What counts as a lake beach

A beach counts as a lake beach when OpenStreetMap maps it as a beach and there is no sea coastline within 5 km of it. Springs and river beaches fall in this group for now; a separate river list waits on a reliable way to tell a river bank from a lake shore in the map data. Sea temperature, tides, and surf do not apply and are left off these pages. Sources and methodology
