This is a documentation subpage for Template:Infobox mapframe. It contains usage information, categories and other content that is not part of the original page. |
This template is used on approximately 86,000 pages and changes may be widely noticed. Test changes in the template's /sandbox or /testcases subpages, or in your own user subpage. Consider discussing changes on the talk page before implementing them. |
This template uses Lua: |
This template generates a mapframe map, suitable for infoboxes, with minimal user input. This template only works with single features (points, lines, or shapes); use {{maplink}}
if more advanced options, such as displaying multiple features, are required.
If coordinates are not supplied, they will be fetched from the page's Wikidata item. In such cases, if |point=
is not set, then a point feature marker is displayed at those coordinates unless the Wikidata item has an Template:Q specified.
- See Category:Infobox mapframe without OSM relation ID on Wikidata for pages which have items without Template:Q
- Troubleshooting shapes guidance is found at Module talk:mapframe/FAQ
Usage
Note: When in mainspace, parameter |id=
is not required (except to use a different page's data)
Basic
{{Infobox mapframe}}
When used without parameters, or with only |id=
, the map will display either a shape, line, or point feature, depending on the data available on Wikidata and OpenStreetMap.
- If the Wikidata item does not specify a Template:Q value, then a point marker will be displayed by default in addition any OSM shape or line feature.
- If the Wikidata items does not specify a Template:Q or a Template:Q value, then no map will be displayed
Template:Cot Point feature (Wikidata coordinates):
{{Infobox mapframe |id=Q7270550}}
Lua error in Module:Infobox_mapframe at line 40: attempt to index field 'wikibase' (a nil value). Line feature:
{{Infobox mapframe |id=Q1318331}}
Lua error in Module:Infobox_mapframe at line 40: attempt to index field 'wikibase' (a nil value). Shape feature:
{{Infobox mapframe |id=Q61}}
Lua error in Module:Infobox_mapframe at line 40: attempt to index field 'wikibase' (a nil value). Template:Cob
Using specified coordinates instead of Wikidata
Point feature only, no shapes or lines:
{{Infobox mapframe |coord=}}
Point feature and shape/line feature if available:
{{Infobox mapframe |wikidata=yes |coord=}}
Specify coordinates using the {{Coord}}
templates, e.g. |coord=
{{Coord|32.1|S|116.2|E}}
- If
|coord=
is specified, then by default only that coordinate will be displayed (no line or shape features) - If
|coord=
is specified and|wikidata=yes
is used, then those coordinate will be displayed, along with any line or shape features linked to the Wikidata item.
Template:Cot Point feature (with coordinates specified, no shape/line feature from Wikidata item):
{{infobox mapframe |coord={{coord|31|56|S|115|58|E}} }}
Lua error in Module:Infobox_mapframe at line 40: attempt to index field 'wikibase' (a nil value). Point feature (with coordinates specified, along with shape/line feature from Wikidata item):
{{infobox mapframe |wikidata=yes |coord={{coord|31|56|S|115|58|E}} }}
Lua error in Module:Infobox_mapframe at line 40: attempt to index field 'wikibase' (a nil value). Template:Cob
Customizing which features are displayed
Inverse shape
{{Infobox mapframe |shape=inverse}}
Replace the shape with an inverse-shape (geomask) by setting |shape=inverse
Template:Cot
{{Infobox mapframe |id=Q61 |shape=inverse}}
Lua error in Module:Infobox_mapframe at line 40: attempt to index field 'wikibase' (a nil value). Template:Cob
Turn point marker on or off
Force point marker to be displayed:
{{Infobox mapframe |point=on}}
Prevent point marker from being displayed:
{{Infobox mapframe |point=none}}
Turn shape feature off
Prevent shape feature from being displayed:
{{Infobox mapframe |shape=none}}
Turn line feature off
Prevent line feature from being displayed:
{{Infobox mapframe |line=none}}
{{Infobox mapframe |geomask=}}
Set |geomask=
to a Wikidata item id (Q-number), or property id (P-number) such as Template:Q
Template:Cot
Use the item linked from the Template:Q statement as a geomask:
{{Infobox mapframe |id=Q3239281 |geomask=P17}}
Lua error in Module:Infobox_mapframe at line 40: attempt to index field 'wikibase' (a nil value). Use the item Template:Q as a geomask:
{{Infobox mapframe |id=Q3239281 |geomask=Q1199}}
Lua error in Module:Infobox_mapframe at line 40: attempt to index field 'wikibase' (a nil value). Template:Cob
Determine zoom from object length or area
Use |length_km=
or |length_mi=
or |area_km2=
or |area_mi2=
Template:Cot
Determine zoom from object length in kilometres or miles
{{Infobox mapframe |id=Q1318331 |length_km=5.6}}
{{Infobox mapframe |id=Q1318331 |length_mi=3.5}}
Lua error in Module:Infobox_mapframe at line 40: attempt to index field 'wikibase' (a nil value). Determine zoom from object area in square kilometres or square miles
{{Infobox mapframe |id=Q100 |area_km2=232.14}}
{{Infobox mapframe |id=Q100 |area_mi2=89.63}}
