While doing some editing in #OpenStreetMap, I stumbled onto this dramatic transformation at Domoroy Point in Barangay Matayum, Cataingan, Masbate, #Philippines 🇵🇭. In a bid to boost tourism, the local government created the huge man-made Matayum Lagoon.

You can see the transformation by switching to different aerial imagery layers. Mapbox at the top shows the area before the lagoon was created, the middle from Bing with the initial excavation, and the bottom from Esri with the finished lagoon.
