Map of New Zealand

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

• Template:Tlx
• Template:Tlx
• Template:Tlx
• Template:Tlx

Map definition

• name = New Zealand

  Name used in the default map caption

• image = New Zealand location map.svg

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

• image1 = New Zealand relief map.jpg

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

• top = -34

  Latitude at top edge of map, in decimal degrees

• bottom = -48.3

  Latitude at bottom edge of map, in decimal degrees

• left = 165.8

  Longitude at left edge of map, in decimal degrees

• right = 179.4

  Longitude at right edge of map, in decimal degrees

• mark = Disc Plain red.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).

• marksize = 5

  The default mark size (in pixels) for the mark image displayed with this map (should not include px, for example marksize=5, not marksize=5px). This can be overridden by the marksize parameter in Template:Location map, which would otherwise default to 8.

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
• Template:Location map#AlternativeMap parameter
• Template:Location map+/AlternativeMap

Examples using location map templates

Location map, using default map (image)

{{Location map | New Zealand
| width   = 250
| lat_deg = -41.29
| lon_deg = 174.78
| label   = Wellington
}}

Template:Clear

Location map many, using relief map (image1)

{{Location map many | New Zealand
| relief   = yes
| width    = 250
| caption  = Three locations in New Zealand
| lat1_deg = -41.29
| lon1_deg = 174.78
| label1   = Wellington
| lat2_deg = -36.84
| lon2_deg = 174.74
| label2   = Auckland
| lat3_deg = -46.43
| lon3_deg = 168.31
| label3   = Invercargill
}}

Template:Clear

Location map+, using AlternativeMap

{{Location map+ | New Zealand
| AlternativeMap = New Zealand relief map.jpg
| width   = 250
| caption = Three locations in New Zealand
| places  =
  {{Location map~ | New Zealand
  | lat_deg = -41.29
  | lon_deg = 174.78
  | label   = Wellington
  }}
  {{Location map~ | New Zealand
  | lat_deg = -36.84
  | lon_deg = 174.74
  | label   = Auckland
  }}
  {{Location map~ | New Zealand
  | lat_deg = -46.43
  | lon_deg = 168.31
  | label   = Invercargill
  }}
}}
