Examples using location map templates
Location map
{{Location map | Cape Cod | width = 250 | lat_deg = 41 | lat_min = 42 | lat_sec = 0 | lat_dir = N | lon_deg = 70 | lon_min = 18 | lon_sec = 0 | lon_dir = W | caption = [[Barnstable, Massachusetts|Barnstable]] is on [[Cape Cod]], [[Massachusetts]] | label = Barnstable }}
Location map with overlay and linked label
{{Location map | Cape Cod |overlay_image=USA Mass Cape Cod Provincetown overlay.svg |label=[[Provincetown, Massachusetts|Provincetown]] |link=Provincetown, Massachusetts <!-- must use a marker, but with the overlay, a pog is unnecessary, so use clear --> |mark=Clear pog.svg |lat_deg=42.033 |lon_deg=-70.169 |width=250 |float=right |caption=[[Provincetown]] is in [[Barnstable County]], at the very tip of [[Cape Cod]]. |alt=A map of Cape Cod, with the Town of Provincetown colored bright red. }}
Location map many
Locations on Cape Cod
{{Location map many | Cape Cod | width = 250 | caption = Locations on Cape Cod | lat1 = 41.7 | long1 = -70.3 | label1 = Barnstable | lat2 = 42.0583 | long2 = -70.1792 | label2 = Provincetown | lat3 = 41.830 | long3 = -69.974 | label3 = Eastham }}
Location map+
Here is a fairly complex real-world example, showing 17 points and linked labels in a small 320px image. Careful experimentation with "|position=
" and "|background=
" allows us to legibly label the points:
