Examples

سمول

Default width and float, no label, default caption (decimal coordinates)

سمول

Note: When a label is not specified, the default caption is "Page name (Map name)", so if this example was viewed on a page named Pag, the default caption would be "Pag (Croatia)". Likewise, on a page named Pag (town), the default caption would be "Pag (town) (Croatia)". Lua error in package.lua at line 80: module 'Module:Location map/data/' not found.

{{Location map | Croatia
| alt     = Pag is on an island.
| lat_deg = 44.44
| lon_deg = 15.05
}}

Map with the default caption (degrees/minutes)

سمول

Note: When a label is specified, the default caption is "Label text (Map name)", seen as "Pag (Croatia)" in this example. Lua error in package.lua at line 80: module 'Module:Location map/data/' not found.

{{Location map | Croatia
| width = 200
| float = right
| alt = Pag is on an island.
| label = Pag

| mark = Green pog.svg <!--green dot-->
| lat_deg = 44 | lat_min = 26 <!-- default: lat_dir = N -->
| lon_deg = 15 | lon_min = 3  <!-- default: lon_dir = E -->
}}

When |position=none, the label text is not displayed next to the mark but is still used in the default caption and default alt text. Lua error in package.lua at line 80: module 'Module:Location map/data/' not found.
