Map of Chile

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

Map definition

  • name = Chile
    Name used in the default map caption
  • bottom = -56.5
    Latitude at bottom edge of map, in decimal degrees
  • left = -81.5
    Longitude at left edge of map, in decimal degrees
  • right = -61.5
    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 20 degrees.

  • At an image width of 200 pixels, that is 0.1 degrees per pixel.
  • At an image width of 1000 pixels, that is 0.02 degrees per pixel.

Latitude: from North to South this map definition covers 39.1 degrees.

  • At an image height of 200 pixels, that is 0.1955 degrees per pixel.
  • At an image height of 1000 pixels, that is 0.0391 degrees per pixel.

Examples using location map templates

Location map, using default map (image)

 
 
Santiago
Santiago (Chile)
{{Location map | Chile
| width   = 125
| label   = Santiago
| lat_deg = -33.44
| lon_deg = -70.65
}}

Location map many, using relief map (image1)

 
 
Santiago
 
Punta Arenas
Two locations in Chile
{{Location map many | Chile
| relief   = yes
| width    = 125
| caption  = Two locations in Chile
| label1   = Santiago
| lat1_deg = -33.44
| lon1_deg = -70.65
| label2   = Punta Arenas
| lat2_deg = -53.17
| lon2_deg = -70.93
}}

Location map+, using AlternativeMap

 
 
Santiago
 
Punta Arenas
Two locations in Chile
{{Location map+ | Chile
| AlternativeMap = Relief Map of Chile.jpg
| width   = 125
| caption = Two locations in Chile
| places  =
  {{Location map~ | Chile
  | label   = Santiago
  | lat_deg = -33.44
  | lon_deg = -70.65
  }}
  {{Location map~ | Chile
  | label   = Punta Arenas
  | lat_deg = -53.17
  | lon_deg  = -70.93
  }}
}}
