The term 'Geographic features' includes more than landforms and natural features. It refers to the "components of a planet that can be referred to as locations, sites, areas, or regions"

There are 3 types of geographic features: natural, artificial and abstract.
Natural includes things such as: landforms and ecosystems.
Landforms include the physical topography (mountains, valleys, plateaus etc), and ecosystems take care of the workings of the animal/plant relationships with the environment.
Artificial refers to all the settlements/communities/cities plus the man-made roads, bridges dams etc.
The abstract features include your grid system of latitude/longitude, equator plus all our political divisions of state boundaries, countries etc
They are things like mountains, rivers, bays, canyons, etc. They are basically anything on the earth that is not living or, you know, really small.
natural features and landforms found on earth...such at rivers, mountains, glaciers, cataracts, volcanoes, bays, deltas...and stuff like that
