In metropolitan France, the Alps mark the southeast and the Pyrenees the southwest. Lower country extends across much of the north and west, with the Massif Central inland. Brittany projects into the Atlantic, while the Mediterranean coast follows a different orientation.

Fields divided by hedges occur in Britain and Ireland too. Vineyards are not exclusive to France, and crop type can be difficult to establish from an overhead image. A recognisable peninsula or mountain front is stronger evidence.
