ଛାଞ୍ଚ:Location map Africa/doc

Template:Location map Africa is a location map definition used to overlay markers and labels on a Lambert azimuthal equal-area projection map of Africa. The markers are placed by latitude and longitude coordinates on the default map or a similar map image.

Usage

These definitions are used by the following templates when invoked with parameter "Africa":

• {{Location map|Africa |...}}
• {{Location map many|Africa |...}}
• {{Location map+|Africa |...}}
• {{Location map~|Africa |...}}

Map definition

• name = Africa

  Name used in the default map caption

• image = Africa location map.svg

  The default map image, without "Image:" or "File:"

• image1 = Africa relief location map.jpg

  An alternative map image, usually a relief map, can be displayed via the relief or AlternativeMap parameters

• x = 48.852459016393 + 71.1 * cos({{{2}}} * pi / 180) * sin(({{{3}}} - 15) * pi / 180) * (((1 + cos({{{2}}} * pi / 180) * cos(({{{3}}} - 15) * pi / 180)) * 0.5) ^ - 0.5 )

  An expression to calculate a location on the map via its longitude; evaluates as 0 along the left edge and 100 along the right edge

• y = 51.180555555556 - 75.3 * sin({{{2}}} * pi / 180) * (((1 + cos({{{2}}} * pi / 180) * cos(({{{3}}} - 15) * pi / 180)) * 0.5) ^ -0.5)

  An expression to calculate a location on the map via its latitude; evaluates as 0 along the top edge and 100 along the bottom edge

Alternative map

The map defined as image1 (Africa relief location map.jpg) can be displayed by using the relief or AlternativeMap parameters in {{Location map}}, {{Location map many}} and {{Location map+}}. The use of these two parameters is shown in the examples below. Additional examples can be found at:

Template:Location map#Relief parameter Template:Location map#AlternativeMap parameter

Template:Location map+/relief Template:Location map+/AlternativeMap

Examples using location map templates

Location map, using default map (image)

{{Location map | Africa
| width   = 200
| label   = Cairo
| lat_deg = 30.06
| lon_deg = 31.23
}}

Location map many, using relief map (image1)

{{Location map many | Africa
| relief   = yes
| width    = 200
| caption  = Two locations in Africa
| label1   = Cairo
| lat1_deg = 30.06
| lon1_deg = 31.23
| label2   = Lagos
| lat2_deg = 6.45
| lon2_deg = 3.40
}}

Location map+, using AlternativeMap

{{Location map+ | Africa
| AlternativeMap = Africa relief location map.jpg
| width   = 200
| caption = Two locations in Africa
| places  =
  {{Location map~ | Africa
  | label   = Cairo
  | lat_deg = 30.06
  | lon_deg = 31.23
  }}
  {{Location map~ | Africa
  | label   = Lagos
  | lat_deg = 6.45
  | lon_deg = 3.40
  }}
}}
