Module:Location map/data/Bahamas

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

• {{Location map|Bahamas |...}}
• {{Location map many|Bahamas |...}}
• {{Location map+|Bahamas |...}}
• {{Location map~|Bahamas |...}}

Map definition

• name = Bahamas

  Name used in the default map caption

• image = Bahamas location map.svg

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

• image1 = Relief map of Bahamas.png

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

• top = 27.5

  Latitude at top edge of map, in decimal degrees

• bottom = 20.7

  Latitude at bottom edge of map, in decimal degrees

• left = -80.7

  Longitude at left edge of map, in decimal degrees

• right = -70.8

  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 relieforAlternativeMap 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)

Nassau

Nassau (Bahamas)

{{Location map | Bahamas
| width   = 250
| lat_deg = 25.06
| lon_deg = -77.345
| label   = Nassau
}}

Location map many, using relief map (image1)

Nassau

{{Location map many | Bahamas
| relief   = yes
| width    = 250
| caption  = Three locations in the Bahamas
| lat1_deg = 25.06
| lon1_deg = -77.345
| label1   = Nassau
| lat2_deg = 26.528
| lon2_deg = -78.697
| label2   = Freeport
| lat3_deg = 20.95
| lon3_deg = -73.667
| label3   = Matthew Town
| pos3     = top
}}

Location map+, using AlternativeMap

Nassau

{{Location map+ | Bahamas
| AlternativeMap = Relief map of Bahamas.png
| width   = 250
| caption = Three locations in the Bahamas
| places  =
  {{Location map~ | Bahamas
  | lat_deg = 25.06
