Template:Location map Egypt/doc



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.

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

Map definition

 * name = 
 * Name used in the default map caption


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

{{#if:{{{{BASEPAGENAME}}|image1}}|

Alternative map
The map defined as image1 () 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: }}

Location map, using default map (image)


Location map many, using relief map (image1)


Location map+, using AlternativeMap


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).
