Map of the Comoros

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

Map definition

  • name = Comoros
    Name used in the default map caption
  • bottom = -13.2
    Latitude at bottom edge of map, in decimal degrees
  • left = 43
    Longitude at left edge of map, in decimal degrees
  • right = 45.5
    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 2.5 degrees.

  • At an image width of 200 pixels, that is 0.0125 degrees per pixel.
  • At an image width of 1000 pixels, that is 0.0025 degrees per pixel.

Latitude: from North to South this map definition covers 2 degrees.

  • At an image height of 200 pixels, that is 0.01 degrees per pixel.
  • At an image height of 1000 pixels, that is 0.002 degrees per pixel.

Examples using location map templates

Location map

 
 
Moroni
Moroni (Comoros)
{{Location map | Comoros
| width   = 250
| lat_deg = -11.75
| lon_deg = 43.2
| label   = Moroni
}}

Location map many

 
 
Moroni
 
Moutsamoudou
 
Fomboni
Three locations in the Comoros
{{Location map many | Comoros
| width    = 250
| caption  = Three locations in the Comoros
| lat1_deg = -11.75
| lon1_deg = 43.2
| label1   = Moroni
| lat2_deg = -12.167
| lon2_deg = 44.4
| label2   = Moutsamoudou
| lat3_deg = -12.28
| lon3_deg = 43.743
| label3   = Fomboni
}}

Location map+, using AlternativeMap

This example uses File:Comoros location map Topographic.png, a relief map with different coordinates, causing incorrect placement of the markers for Moutsamoudou and Fomboni.

 
 
Moroni
 
Moutsamoudou
 
Fomboni
Three locations in the Comoros
{{Location map+ | Comoros
| AlternativeMap = Comoros location map Topographic.png
| width   = 250
| caption = Three locations in the Comoros
| places  =
  {{Location map~ | Comoros
  | lat_deg = -11.75
  | lon_deg = 43.2
  | label   = Moroni
  }}
  {{Location map~ | Comoros
  | lat_deg = -12.167
  | lon_deg = 44.4
  | label   = Moutsamoudou
  }}
  {{Location map~ | Comoros
  | lat_deg = -12.28
  | lon_deg = 43.743
  | label   = Fomboni
  }}
}}
