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

Map definition

  • name = Alps
    Name used in the default map caption
  • bottom = 42.75
    Latitude at bottom edge of map, in decimal degrees
  • left = 4.5
    Longitude at left edge of map, in decimal degrees
  • right = 17
    Longitude at right edge of map, in decimal degrees
