| This is a documentation subpage for Template:Google maps. It contains usage information, categories and other content that is not part of the original template page. |
| This template is a Citation Style 1 specific-source template based on {{Cite map}}. For centralised Citation Style 1 discussions, see Help talk:Citation Style 1. |
This template is used for referencing maps published by Google, Inc. through their Google Maps service.
This template can also be set to emulate Citation Style 2 (CS2) style.
Note that unlike paper maps, Google offers dynamic sizing at variable scales. Major citation style guides omit a map scale in that situation so this template does not render any scale output.
Contents
Usage
{{Google maps|url= |title= |access-date=7 November 2025}}
Parameters
- url – the URL for the map in question
- title – a "subtitle" for the map. The link text will appear as "<title>" if "title" is used; otherwise, it will be the page name.
- access-date – the full retrieval date.
- link – set to "no" to unlink the publisher.
- mode – set to "cs2" to use CS2 output (lower case only)
- ref: for Harvard-style referencing, if necessary
- letter: a letter to append to a date or year for Harvard-style referencing, if necessary
Examples
Normal usage with automatic inclusion of page title (i.e. "Google maps", which is taken from the template's full page title "Template:Google maps/doc"):
{{Google maps |url= http://maps.google.com/maps?hl=en&q=from:+E%20Market%20St/RT-308%20@41.926860,%20-73.912580+to:+RT-308%20@41.970313,%20-73.821096 |access-date= 7 November 2025}}
generates this:
- Google (7 November 2025). "Google maps" (Map). Google Maps. Google. Retrieved 7 November 2025.
Using the optional "title" parameter:
{{Google maps |url= http://maps.google.com/maps?hl=en&q=from:+E%20Market%20St/RT-308%20@41.926860,%20-73.912580+to:+RT-308%20@41.970313,%20-73.821096 |title= Driving directions to RT-308 |access-date= 7 November 2025}}
generates this:
- Google (7 November 2025). "Driving directions to RT-308" (Map). Google Maps. Google. Retrieved 7 November 2025.
