Template:Location map Egypt/doc

Template:Location map Egypt is a location map definition used to overlay markers and labels on an equirectangular projection map of Egypt. 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 "Egypt":

Map definition

 * name
 * used in default map caption ()


 * image
 * the default map image, without "Image:" or "File:" (File:)


 * image1
 * an alternative map image, usually a relief map (File:)


 * top
 * latitude at top edge of map, in decimal degrees ()


 * bottom
 * latitude at bottom edge of map, in decimal degrees ()


 * left
 * longitude at left edge of map, in decimal degrees ()


 * right
 * longitude at right edge of map, in decimal degrees ()

Alternative map
The map shown above as image1 () can be displayed by using the AlternativeMap or relief parameters in Location map, Location map many and Location map+. Further instructions can be found at Template:Location map and Template:Location map, or see the examples below.

Other options
It is possible to place markers/labels outside a map, by specifying latitude outside 20.5-32.8 or longitude coordinates beyond 25.5-35.8:
 * Over longitude=35.8 will push a label off-map to the right;
 * Under longitude= 20.5 will push a label off-map to the left;
 * Over latitude= 32.8 will push a label off-map to the top.

For templates that restrict coordinates, expand the minutes field: lat_deg=32.0 but lat_min=120 yielding a combined 34 degrees (60 minutes = 1 degree).
