Template:Location map Egypt is a location map definition used to overlay markers and labels on an equirectangular projection map of Egypt. The markers are placed by latitude and longitude coordinates on the default map or a similar map image.
Contents
Usage
These definitions are used by the following templates when invoked with parameter "Egypt":
{{Location map | Egypt | ...}}{{Location map many | Egypt | ...}}{{Location map+ | Egypt | ...}}{{Location map~ | Egypt | ...}}
Map definition
- name
- used in default map caption (Template:Location map/data/Egypt)
- image
- the default map image, without "Image:" or "File:" ([[:File:Template:Location map/data/Egypt|Template:Location map/data/Egypt]])
- image1
- an alternative map image, usually a relief map ([[:File:Template:Location map/data/Egypt|Template:Location map/data/Egypt]])
- top
- latitude at top edge of map, in decimal degrees (Template:Location map/data/Egypt)
- bottom
- latitude at bottom edge of map, in decimal degrees (Template:Location map/data/Egypt)
- left
- longitude at left edge of map, in decimal degrees (Template:Location map/data/Egypt)
- right
- longitude at right edge of map, in decimal degrees (Template:Location map/data/Egypt)
Alternative map
The map shown above as image1 (Template:Location map/data/Egypt) can be displayed by using the AlternativeMap or relief parameters in {{Location map}}, {{Location map many}} and {{Location map+}}. Further instructions can be found at Template:Location map#Using Alternative Map and Template:Location map#Relief, or see the examples below.
Examples
Location map, using default map (image)
{{Location map | Egypt
| width = 200 <!--omit "px"-->
| label = Alexandria
| lat = 31.2
| long = 29.9
}}
{{Location map | Egypt
| width = 200 <!--omit "px"-->
| label = Cairo
| lat = 30.05
| long = 31.22
}}
{{Location map | Egypt
| width = 200 <!--omit "px"-->
| label = Cairo
| lat = 30.05
| long = 31.22
}}
Location map, using relief map (image1)
{{Location map | Egypt
| relief = yes
| float = right <!--or left/center)-->
| width = 200
| caption = Berenice on Red Sea
| lat = 23.92
| long = 35.45
| label = Berenice
| label_size= 70
| background= #44CCDD <!--aqua-->
| position = left <!--or right/top/bottom -->
| mark = Green_pog.svg <!--marker image-->
| marksize = 10 <!--default: 8, 1=none -->
}}
Location map many, using default map
{{Location map many | Egypt
| <!--map settings-->
| width = 200
| float = right
| caption = Sallum north, Abu Simbel in south
| <!--1st label settings-->
| lat = 31.61
| long = 25.92
| label = Sallum
| label_size = 70
| background = #DDDD44
| position = right
| mark = Blue pog.svg
| marksize = 10
| <!--2nd label settings-->
| lat2 = 22.34
| long2 = 31.37
| label2 = Abu Simbel
| label2_size = 70
| background2 = DarkOrange
| position2 = top
| mark2 = Blue pog.svg
| mark2size = 10
}}
Location map+, using AlternativeMap
{{Location map+ | Egypt
| AlternativeMap = Egypt relief location map.jpg
| width = 200
| caption = Two locations in Egypt
| places =
{{Location map~ | Egypt
| lat = 31.61
| long = 25.92
| label = Sallum
}}
{{Location map~ | Egypt
| lat = 22.34
| long = 31.37
| label = Abu Simbel
}}
}}
Other options
It is possible to place markers/labels outside a map, by specifying latitude outside 20.5-32.8 or longitude coordinates beyond 25.5-35.8:
- Over longitude=35.8 will push a label off-map to the right;
- Under longitude= 20.5 will push a label off-map to the left;
- Over latitude= 32.8 will push a label off-map to the top.
For templates that restrict coordinates, expand the minutes field: lat_deg=32.0 but lat_min=120 yielding a combined 34 degrees (60 minutes = 1 degree).
