Template:Location map+/doc

This template places one or more location marks on a map, with optional labels. It is in the same family of templates as the Location map template and the documentation for that template might be helpful.

This template uses a helper template, Location map~, one or more times to generate a mark for each location.

Parameters
Notes:

Available maps
Location maps can be found using these sources:


 * Special:PrefixIndex/Module:Location map/data/ - Checked before a map template is searched for. New maps should be created here rather than creating new templates.
 * List of templates - 1050 templates available when the list was generated.
 * Category:Location map templates - templates sorted by category.
 * Special:WhatLinksHere/Template:Location map/Info - a search that might help.
 * Special:Prefixindex/Template:Location map - another search that might help.

Examples
This example does not designate the  parameter. It demonstrates the use of the defaults. Notice that the default caption is the page name followed by the map name in parenthesis and that the label position is automatically adjusted if it is too close to an edge.



This example uses a designated but empty. It demonstrates coordinates using decimal degrees and a 10px mark with a link.



This example uses  with an assigned value. It demonstrates coordinates in degree, minute, second format, a relief map, label background color and linked labels.



Also see the examples on the Location map page, as well as:
 * Template:Location map+/relief, an example using the relief parameter
 * Template:Location map+/AlternativeMap, an example using the AlternativeMap parameter
 * Template:Location map+/overlay, an example using the overlay_image parameter
