Template:Infobox mapframe

This template uses Lua: Module:Infobox mapframe (sandbox)

This template uses the Wikidata property:

• coordinate location (P625) (see uses)

This template tracks the Wikidata property:

• OpenStreetMap relation ID (P402) (see uses)

This template uses the OpenStreetMap tag:

• wikidata (see talk; taginfo)

This template generates a mapframe map, suitable for infoboxes, with minimal user input. This template only works with single features (points, lines, or shapes); use {{maplink}} if more advanced options, such as displaying multiple features, are required.

If coordinates are not supplied, they will be fetched from the page's Wikidata item. In such cases, if |point= is not set, then a point feature marker is displayed at those coordinates unless the Wikidata item has an OpenStreetMap relation ID (P402) specified.

• See Category:Infobox mapframe without OSM relation ID on Wikidata for pages which have items without OpenStreetMap relation ID (P402)
• Troubleshooting shapes guidance is found at Module talk:mapframe/FAQ

Usage

Note: When in mainspace, parameter |id= is not required (except to use a different page's data)

Basic

{{Infobox mapframe}}

When used without parameters, or with only |id=, the map will display either a shape, line, or point feature, depending on the data available on Wikidata and OpenStreetMap.

• If the Wikidata item does not specify a OpenStreetMap relation ID (P402) value, then a point marker will be displayed by default in addition any OSM shape or line feature.
• If the Wikidata items does not specify a coordinate location (P625) or a geoshape (P3896) value, then no map will be displayed

{{Infobox mapframe |id=Q7270550}}

{{Infobox mapframe |id=Q1318331}}

{{Infobox mapframe |id=Q61}}

Using specified coordinates instead of Wikidata

Point feature only, no shapes or lines:

{{Infobox mapframe |coord=}}

Point feature and shape/line feature if available:

{{Infobox mapframe |wikidata=yes |coord=}}

Specify coordinates using the {{Coord}} templates, e.g. |coord={{Coord|32.1|S|116.2|E}}

• If|coord= is specified, then by default only that coordinate will be displayed (no line or shape features)
• If|coord= is specified and |wikidata=yes is used, then those coordinate will be displayed, along with any line or shape features linked to the Wikidata item.

{{infobox mapframe |coord={{coord|31|56|S|115|58|E}} }}

{{infobox mapframe |wikidata=yes |coord={{coord|31|56|S|115|58|E}} }}

Customizing which features are displayed

Inverse shape

{{Infobox mapframe |shape=inverse}}

Replace the shape with an inverse-shape (geomask) by setting |shape=inverse

{{Infobox mapframe |id=Q61 |shape=inverse}}

Turn point marker on or off

Force point marker to be displayed:

{{Infobox mapframe |point=on}}

Prevent point marker from being displayed:

{{Infobox mapframe |point=none}}

Turn shape feature off

Prevent shape feature from being displayed:

{{Infobox mapframe |shape=none}}

Turn line feature off

Prevent line feature from being displayed:

{{Infobox mapframe |line=none}}

Show a geomask from a related Wikidata item

{{Infobox mapframe |geomask=}}

Set |geomask= to a Wikidata item id (Q-number), or property id (P-number) such as country (P17)

{{Infobox mapframe |id=Q3239281 |geomask=P17}}

{{Infobox mapframe |id=Q3239281 |geomask=Q1199}}

Determine zoom from object length or area

Use |length_km=or|length_mi=or|area_km2=or|area_mi2=

{{Infobox mapframe |id=Q1318331 |length_km=5.6}}

{{Infobox mapframe |id=Q1318331 |length_mi=3.5}}

{{Infobox mapframe |id=Q100 |area_km2=232.14}}

{{Infobox mapframe |id=Q100 |area_mi2=89.63}}

Parameters

All parameters are optional.

• Basic parameters:
  • id – Id (Q-number) of Wikidata item to use. Default: item for current page
  • coordinatesorcoord – Coordinates to use, instead of any on Wikidata. Use the {{Coord}} template, e.g. |coord={{Coord|12.34|N|56.78|E}}. Default: coordinates from Wikidata
  • wikidata – Set to yes to show shape/line features from the wikidata item, if any, when |coord= is set. Default: not specified
• Customise which features are displayed:
  • shape – Turn off display of shape feature by setting to none. Use an inverse shape (geomask) instead of a regular shape by setting to inverse. Default: not specified
  • point – Turn off display of point feature by setting to none. Force point marker to be displayed by setting to on. Default: not specified
  • line – Turn off display of line feature by setting to none. Default: not specified
  • geomask – Wikidata item to use as a geomask (everything outside the boundary is shaded darker). Can either be a specific Wikidata item (Q-number), or a property that specifies the item to use (e.g. P17 for country (P17), P131 for located in the administrative territorial entity (P131)). Default: not specified
  • switcher – set to autoorgeomasksorzooms to enable Template:Switcher-style switching between multiple mapframes. Default: not specified
    • auto – switch geomasks found in location (P276) and located in the administrative territorial entity (P131) statements on the page's Wikidata item, searching recursively. E.g. an item's city, that city's state, and that state's country.
    • geomasks – switch between the geomasks specified as a comma-separated list of Wikidata items (Q-numbers) in the geomask parameter
    • zooms – switch between "zoomed in"/"zoomed midway"/"zoomed out", where "zoomed in" is the default zoom (with a minimum of 3), "zoomed out" is 1, and "zoomed midway" is the average
• Other optional parameters:
  • frame-widthorwidth – Frame width. Default: 270
  • frame-heightorheight – Frame height. Default: 200
  • shape-fill – Color used to fill shape features. Default: #606060
  • shape-fill-opacity – Opacity level of shape fill, a number between 0 and 1. Default: 0.5
  • stroke-colororstroke-colour – Color of line features, and outlines of shape features. Default: #ff0000
  • stroke-width – Width of line features, and outlines of shape features; default is "5". Default:5
  • marker – Marker symbol to use for coordinates; see mw:Help:Extension:Kartographer/Icons for options. Default: not specified (i.e. blank)
    • Can also be set to blank to override any default marker symbol
  • marker-colorormarker-colour – Background color for the marker. Default: #5E74F3
  • geomask-stroke-colororgeomask-stroke-colour – Color of outline of geomask shape. Default: #555555
  • geomask-stroke-width – Width of outline of geomask shape. Default:2
  • geomask-fill – Color used to fill outside geomask features. Default: #606060
  • geomask-fill-opacity – Opacity level of fill outside geomask features, a number between 0 and 1. Default: 0.5
  • zoom – Set the zoom level, from "1" (map of earth) to "18" (maximum zoom in), to be used if the zoom level cannot be determined automatically from object length or area. Default:10
  • length_km or length_mi or area_km2 or area_mi2 – Determine zoom level by passing in object's length (in kilometres or miles) or area (in square kilometres or square miles). Default: not specified
  • frame-coordinatesorframe-coord – Alternate latitude and longitude coordinates for initial placement of map, using {{coord}}. Default: derived from item coordinates
• Deprecated parameters
  • frame-latorframe-latitude – Alternate latitude coordinate for initial placement of map; default is derived from item coordinates
  • frame-longorframe-longitude – Alternate longitude coordinate for initial placement of map; default is derived from item coordinates
