1	World has 01-10% of its surface covered by liquid, including free-standing water. Water is in precious, short supply on this world and must often be imported, such as from ice-bearing planetoids if available. Water recycling may be a significant part of any settlement on this world.
2	World has 11-20% of its surface covered by liquid, including free-standing water. Water recycling may be a significant part of any settlement on this world.
3	World has 21-30% of its surface covered by liquid, including free-standing water.
4	World has 31-40% of its surface covered by liquid, including free-standing water.
5	World has 41-50% of its surface covered by liquid, including free-standing water.
6	World has 51-60% of its surface covered by liquid, including free-standing water.
7	World has 61-70% of its surface covered by liquid, including free-standing water.	Example: Terra
8	World has 71-80% of its surface covered by liquid, including free-standing water.
9	World has 81-90% of its surface covered by liquid, including free-standing water. Land is in short supply. Not including any population in orbit, settlements are either confined to several islands (some large), float on or above the water, or are underwater.
A	World has 91-100% of its surface covered by liquid, including free-standing water. Land is in very short supply. Not including any population in orbit, settlements are either confined to a few islands, float on or above the water, or are underwater.
