Creates a location map as a composite image of an existing map in orthographic projection with a marker and a label superimposed onto it.
Usage
{{Location map</nowiki>|location
|label=label
|position=left or right - position of the label relative to the mark, defaults to right
|background=color - background color for the label, defaults to none
|lat=lattitude in degrees
|long=longitude in degrees
|mark=image file name - a red circle by default
|caption=caption - caption below the map
|float=left or right or none
|width=width of the map
}}
Parameter location refers to Template:Location map location containing the name and coordinates of a map. For example Template:Location map Slovenia (backlinks edit), which in turn refers to Image:Obcine Slovenija 2005.png.
Available maps
List of templates Template:Location map location (here without prefix "Template:"):
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.
