Template:Location map USA is a location map definition used to overlay markers and labels on an equirectangular projection map of the United States. 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 "USA":

Map definition

name
used in default map caption (Template:Location map/data/USA)
image
the default map image, without "Image:" or "File:" ([[:File:Template:Location map/data/USA|Template:Location map/data/USA]])
top
latitude at top edge of map, in decimal degrees (Template:Location map/data/USA)
bottom
latitude at bottom edge of map, in decimal degrees (Template:Location map/data/USA)
left
longitude at left edge of map, in decimal degrees (Template:Location map/data/USA)
right
longitude at right edge of map, in decimal degrees (Template:Location map/data/USA)

Examples

Location map

Washington, D.C. (the United States)
{{Location map | USA
| width = 250
| lat   = 38.895
| long  = -77.037
| label = Washington, D.C.
}}

Location map many

{{Location map many | USA
| caption = Two locations in the USA
| width   = 250
| lat     = 38.89
| long    = -77.04
| label   = Washington, D.C.
| lat2    = 47.61
| long2   = -122.33
| label2  = Seattle
}}

Location map+

{{Location map+ | USA
| caption = Two locations in the USA
| width   = 250
| places  =
  {{Location map~ | USA
  | lat   = 38.89
  | long  = -77.04
  | label = Washington, D.C.
  }}
  {{Location map~ | USA
  | lat   = 47.61
  | long  = -122.33
