A definition list dl is the most semantic approach.

This legend will consist of each different icon that appears on the map and NEXT TO each icon, a definition. My questions is what element(s) would be most appropriate for that legends. It could be: Shipping facility ... ... ... or a instead of s? What's most semantic and appropriate?

Re: [WSG] What is the best element?
Your markup should work. For a detailed description, look at http://www.w3.org/TR/html401/struct/lists.html#h-10.3 HTML5 has also broadened out the use of the DL: http://www.w3.org/TR/html5-diff/ The dl element now represents an association list of name-value groups, and is no longer said to be appropriate for dialogue. http://www.whatwg.org/specs/web-apps/current-work/multipage/grouping-content.html#the-dl-element The dl element represents an association list consisting of zero or more name-value groups (a description list). Each group must consist of one or more names (dt elements) followed by one or more values (dd elements). Within a single dl element, there should not be more than one dt element for each name. Name-value groups may be terms and definitions, metadata topics and values, questions and answers, or any other groups of name-value data.
