Usage[edit]

The map definition, Template:Location_map_Sweden, is intended for overlaying markers and labels on similar maps of Sweden. It is a map locator for the Sweden blank map, allowing a specified marker-image (parameter "mark=") of set size (defaults "marksize=8") plus an optional name-label to be placed by latitude and longitude coordinates on the default map (or a given image).

This template is used by the parent "Template:Location map" which must be invoked with parameter "Sweden" to process the options before it uses this template. Specify each of the individual parameters by using vertical bars: {{Location map | Sweden | ...}}.

See: {{Location map}} for description of parameters, or Examples below.

Examples[edit]

Gotland island

class=notpageimage|

Show "Gotland island" on map

Example labeling "Gotland island":

{{Location map

| Sweden

| label = Gotland island

| label_size = 90 <--percent 0-900%

| caption = Show "Gotland island" on map

| lat_deg=57 | lat_min=30

| lon_deg=18 | lon_min=33

| background = #FFFF99

| float = right

| width = 270

}}

Malmö

class=notpageimage|

Show "Malmö" on map

Example for orange "Malmö" at bottom:

{{Location map

| Sweden

| label = Malmö

| label_size = 90 <--percent 0-900%

| caption = Show "Malmö" on map

| lat_deg=55 | lat_min=35

| lon_deg=13 | lon_min=2

| background = #FFCC66

| float = right

| width = 270

| AlternativeMap =

}}

Gotland

class=notpageimage|

"Gotland" on wrong-scale map

Example labeling "Gotland" on wrong-scale map:

{{Location map

| Sweden

| label = Gotland | position = top

| label_size = 78

| caption = "Gotland" on wrong-scale map

| lat_deg=57 | lat_min=30

| lon_deg=18 | lon_min=33

| background = #FFFF99

| float = right

| width = 220

| AlternativeMap = Sweden_CIA_map_extended.gif

}}

For the Sweden CIA-extended map, use template Template:Location_map_skew with map name "SwedenCIAx" to place markers with coodinates at converging longitudes. Map "SwedenCIAx" has different boundaries than "Location map Sweden" and aligns top positions closer together.
