Module:Location map/data/British Columbia Vancouver is a location map definition used to overlay markers and labels on an equirectangular projection map of Vancouver (British Columbia). 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 "British Columbia Vancouver":

• {{Location map|British Columbia Vancouver |...}}
• {{Location map many|British Columbia Vancouver |...}}
• {{Location map+|British Columbia Vancouver |...}}
• {{Location map~|British Columbia Vancouver |...}}

Map definition

• name = Vancouver (British Columbia)

  Name used in the default map caption

• image = Vancouver (British Columbia) - OpenStreetMap.png

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

• image1 = Vancouver (British Columbia) - OpenStreetMap.png

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

• top = 49.3153

  Latitude at top edge of map, in decimal degrees

• bottom = 49.1974

  Latitude at bottom edge of map, in decimal degrees

• left = -123.2683

  Longitude at left edge of map, in decimal degrees

• right = -123.0201

  Longitude at right edge of map, in decimal degrees

Alternative map

The {{Location map}}, {{Location map many}}, and {{Location map+}} templates have parameters to specify an alternative map image. The map displayed as image1 can be used with the relief or AlternativeMap parameters. Examples may be found below or in the following:

• Template:Location map#Relief parameter
• Template:Location map+/relief
