Module:Location map/data/Mexico is a location map definition used to overlay markers and labels on an equirectangular projection map of Mexico. 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 "Mexico":
{{Location map|Mexico |...}}{{Location map many|Mexico |...}}{{Location map+|Mexico |...}}{{Location map~|Mexico |...}}
Map definition
name = Mexico- Name used in the default map caption
image = Mexico States blank map.svg- The default map image, without "Image:" or "File:"
image1 = Mexico topographic map-blank 2.svg- An alternative map image, usually a relief map, which can be displayed via the relief or AlternativeMap parameters
image2 = Mexico location map.svg- Alternative map image which can be displayed via the AlternativeMap parameter
top = 33.3- Latitude at top edge of map, in decimal degrees
bottom = 14.2- Latitude at bottom edge of map, in decimal degrees
left = -118.5- Longitude at left edge of map, in decimal degrees
right = -86.3- 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. The map displayed as image2 can be used with the AlternativeMap parameter. Examples may be found below or in the following:
- Template:Location map#Relief parameter
- Template:Location map+/relief
- Template:Location map#AlternativeMap parameter
- Template:Location map+/AlternativeMap
Precision
Longitude: from West to East this map definition covers 32.2 degrees.
- At an image width of 200 pixels, that is 0.161 degrees per pixel.
- At an image width of 1000 pixels, that is 0.0322 degrees per pixel.
Latitude: from North to South this map definition covers 19.1 degrees.
- At an image height of 200 pixels, that is 0.0955 degrees per pixel.
- At an image height of 1000 pixels, that is 0.0191 degrees per pixel.
Examples using location map templates
Location map, using default map (image)
{{Location map | Mexico
| width = 250
| lat_deg = 19.43
| lon_deg = -99.13
| label = Mexico City
}}
Location map many, using relief map (image1)
{{Location map many | Mexico
| relief = yes
| width = 250
| caption = Two locations in Mexico
| lat1_deg = 19.43
| lon1_deg = -99.13
| label1 = Mexico City
| lat2_deg = 32.53
| lon2_deg = -117.03
| label2 = Tijuana
}}
Location map+, using AlternativeMap
{{Location map+ | Mexico
| AlternativeMap = Mexico location map.svg
| width = 250
| caption = Two locations in Mexico
| places =
{{Location map~ | Mexico
| lat_deg = 19.43
| lon_deg = -99.13
| label = Mexico City
}}
{{Location map~ | Mexico
| lat_deg = 32.53
| lon_deg = -117.03
| label = Tijuana
}}
}}
