Summary[edit]

Description
English: Location of the Philippine Sea in the region.

The borders of the sea are mostly based on those from the IHO's "Limits of Oceans and Seas" Draft 3rd Edition, 1953, and from the IHO's "Limits of Oceans and Seas" Draft 4th Edition, 2002. However, the seas within the Philippine archipelago, such as the Bohol Sea, Sibuyan Sea, Visayan Sea and Samar Sea are all excluded, since common use of the term Philippine Sea does not seem to include them.

(Winkel III projection centred 150° East and standard parallels at 50°28'.)

The map was created using data from Natural Earth, with mapshaper. (Natural Earth Data is in the public domain.) For reproducibility purposes, this was the set of scripts used.

The style of the map was generally intended to follow that of the German Locator maps project, except for the highlight colour of the sea, for which dark blue (#4790c8) was used.
