Creating new maps
- Find an appropriate blank map in an orthographic projection.
- Create a template named Template:Location map location (copy the content of any other map template into it and enter appropriate values).
Issues
Doesn't handle longitude properly for maps crossing the +/- 180 meridian yet.
