Map of Iceland

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

Map definition

  • name = Iceland
    Name used in the default map caption
  • bottom = 63.1
    Latitude at bottom edge of map, in decimal degrees
  • left = -25
    Longitude at left edge of map, in decimal degrees
  • right = -13
    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 12 degrees.

  • At an image width of 200 pixels, that is 0.06 degrees per pixel.
  • At an image width of 1000 pixels, that is 0.012 degrees per pixel.

Latitude: from North to South this map definition covers 3.7 degrees.

  • At an image height of 200 pixels, that is 0.0185 degrees per pixel.
  • At an image height of 1000 pixels, that is 0.0037 degrees per pixel.

Examples using location map templates

Location map, using default map (image)

 
 
Reykjavík
Reykjavík (Iceland)
{{Location map | Iceland
| width   = 250
| lat_deg = 64.13
| lon_deg = -21.93
| label   = Reykjavík
}}

Location map many, using relief map (image1)

 
 
Reykjavík
 
Ísafjörður
 
Höfn
Three locations in Iceland
{{Location map many | Iceland
| relief   = yes
| width    = 250
| caption  = Three locations in Iceland
| lat1_deg = 64.13
| lon1_deg = -21.93
| label1   = Reykjavík
| lat2_deg = 66.076
| lon2_deg = -23.127
| label2   = Ísafjörður
| lat3_deg = 64.25
| lon3_deg = -15.217
| label3   = Höfn
}}

Location map+, using AlternativeMap

 
 
Reykjavík
 
Ísafjörður
 
Höfn
Three locations in Iceland
{{Location map+ | Iceland
| AlternativeMap = Iceland relief map.jpg
| width   = 250
| caption = Three locations in Iceland
| places  =
  {{Location map~ | Iceland
  | lat_deg = 64.13
  | lon_deg = -21.93
  | label   = Reykjavík
  }}
  {{Location map~ | Iceland
  | lat_deg = 66.076
  | lon_deg = -23.127
  | label   = Ísafjörður
  }}
  {{Location map~ | Iceland
  | lat_deg = 64.25
  | lon_deg = -15.217
  | label   = Höfn
  }}
}}
