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

{{Location map|USA Georgia |...}}
{{Location map many|USA Georgia |...}}
{{Location map+|USA Georgia |...}}
{{Location map~|USA Georgia |...}}

Map definition

name = Georgia
Name used in the default map caption

image = USA Georgia location map.svg
The default map image, without "Image:" or "File:"
image1 = USA Georgia relief location map.svg
An alternative map image, usually a relief map, can be displayed via the relief or AlternativeMap parameters
top = 35.2
Latitude at top edge of map, in decimal degrees

bottom = 30.2
Latitude at bottom edge of map, in decimal degrees

left = -85.8
Longitude at left edge of map, in decimal degrees

right = -80.6
Longitude at right edge of map, in decimal degrees

Alternative map

The map defined as image1 (USA Georgia relief location map.svg) can be displayed by using the relief or AlternativeMap parameters in {{Location map}}, {{Location map many}} and {{Location map+}}. The use of these two parameters is shown in the examples below. Additional examples can be found at:
