Wetland Terrain is a geographical feature.
Summary[ | ]
Wetland Terrain, refers to a occurrence of planet surfaces that have no oceans or seas but feature extensive shallow levels of water across a large portion of the surface. They may sometimes be confused with Archipelago worlds. The distinct usually is the dept of water even when far from dry land. If the water depth remains shallow across most of the submerged areas, then its best to classify an apparent archipelago world as a wetland.
Moons, Exotic and Dead planets will never have wetland terrain.

A planet with wetland terrain will feature very limited large land masses. Wetland worlds typically have less than 25% of their surface covered with land.
The Wetland planets will often (but not always) appear similar to Archipelago worlds from space in many cases.
Types[ | ]
No specific variation has been noticed as a repeating pattern of generation on planets that would allow type categories at this time.
Game application[ | ]
In No Man's Sky, all features are procedurally generated, so any type of archetype can be present in the game are by definition undetermined. This terrain typically occurs in combination with flatland, Hills or Honeycomb Terrain Archetypes.
