Map of Brazil

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

Map definition

  • name = Brazil
    Name used in the default map caption
  • bottom = -34
    Latitude at bottom edge of map, in decimal degrees
  • left = -74.5
    Longitude at left edge of map, in decimal degrees
  • right = -32
    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 relief or AlternativeMap parameters. Examples may be found below or in the following:

Precision

Longitude: from West to East this map definition covers 42.5 degrees.

  • At an image width of 200 pixels, that is 0.2125 degrees per pixel.
  • At an image width of 1000 pixels, that is 0.0425 degrees per pixel.

Latitude: from North to South this map definition covers 40 degrees.

  • At an image height of 200 pixels, that is 0.2 degrees per pixel.
  • At an image height of 1000 pixels, that is 0.04 degrees per pixel.

Examples using location map templates

Location map, using default map (image)

 
 
Brasília
Brasília (Brazil)
{{Location map | Brazil
| width   = 200
| label   = Brasília
| lat_deg = -15.8
| lon_deg = -47.9
}}

Location map many, using relief map (image1)

 
 
Brasília
 
São Paulo
 
Boa Vista
class=notpageimage|
Three locations in Brazil
{{Location map many | Brazil
| relief   = yes
| width    = 200
| caption  = Three locations in Brazil
| label1   = Brasília
| lat1_deg = -15.8
| lon1_deg = -47.9
| label2   = São Paulo 
| lat2_deg = -23.55
| lon2_deg = -46.63
| lat3_deg = 2.82
| lon3_deg = -60.67
| label3   = Boa Vista
}}

Location map+, using AlternativeMap

 
 
Brasília
 
São Paulo
 
Boa Vista
class=notpageimage|
Three locations in Brazil
{{Location map+ | Brazil
| AlternativeMap = Relief Map of Brazil.svg
| width   = 200
| caption = Three locations in Brazil
| places  =
  {{Location map~ | Brazil
  | lat_deg = -15.8
  | lon_deg = -47.9
  | label   = Brasília
  }}
  {{Location map~ | Brazil
  | lat_deg = -23.55
  | lon_deg = -46.63
  | label   = São Paulo 
  }}
  {{Location map~ | Brazil
  | lat_deg = 2.82
  | lon_deg = -60.67
