Map of Kenya

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

Map definition

  • name = Kenya
    Name used in the default map caption
  • bottom = -5
    Latitude at bottom edge of map, in decimal degrees
  • left = 33
    Longitude at left edge of map, in decimal degrees
  • right = 43
    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 10 degrees.

  • At an image width of 200 pixels, that is 0.05 degrees per pixel.
  • At an image width of 1000 pixels, that is 0.01 degrees per pixel.

Latitude: from North to South this map definition covers 11 degrees.

  • At an image height of 200 pixels, that is 0.055 degrees per pixel.
  • At an image height of 1000 pixels, that is 0.011 degrees per pixel.

Examples using location map templates

Location map, using default map (image)

 
 
Nairobi
Nairobi (Kenya)
{{Location map | Kenya
| width   = 250
| lat_deg = -1.28
| lon_deg = 36.82
| label   = Nairobi
}}

Location map many, using relief map (image1)

 
 
Nairobi
 
Mombasa
 
Lokichogio
class=notpageimage|
Three locations in Kenya
{{Location map many | Kenya
| relief   = no
| width    = 250
| caption  = Three locations in Kenya
| lat1_deg = -1.28
| lon1_deg = 36.82
| label1   = Nairobi
| lat2_deg = -4.05
| lon2_deg = 39.67
| label2   = Mombasa
| lat3_deg = 4.2
| lon3_deg = 34.35
| label3   = Lokichogio
}}

Location map+, using AlternativeMap

 
 
Nairobi
 
Mombasa
 
Lokichogio
class=notpageimage|
Three locations in Kenya
{{Location map+ | Kenya
| AlternativeMap = Kenya relief location map.jpg
| width   = 250
| caption = Three locations in Kenya
| places  =
  {{Location map~ | Kenya
  | lat_deg = -1.28
  | lon_deg = 36.82
  | label   = Nairobi
  }}
  {{Location map~ | Kenya
  | lat_deg = -4.05
  | lon_deg = 39.67
  | label   = Mombasa
  }}
  {{Location map~ | Kenya
