Map of the United Arab Emirates

Module:Location map/data/United Arab Emirates is a location map definition used to overlay markers and labels on an equirectangular projection map of United Arab Emirates. 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 "United Arab Emirates":

Map definition

  • name = United Arab Emirates
    Name used in the default map caption
  • bottom = 22.4
    Latitude at bottom edge of map, in decimal degrees
  • left = 51.4
    Longitude at left edge of map, in decimal degrees
  • right = 56.6
    Longitude at right edge of map, in decimal degrees
  • mark = Red pog.svg (8px)
    The default mark image to display with this map. This can be overridden by the mark parameter in Template:Location map, which would otherwise default to Red pog.svg (8px).

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:
