Template:Infobox mapframe

Template documentation[view] [edit] [history] [purge]

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}}

Line feature:

{{Infobox mapframe |id=Q1318331}}

Shape feature:

{{Infobox mapframe |id=Q61}}

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}} }}

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}} }}

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}}

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}}

Show a geomask from a related Wikidata item

{{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}}

Use the item Template:Q as a geomask:

{{Infobox mapframe |id=Q3239281 |geomask=Q1199}}

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}}

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}}

Parameters

All parameters are optional.
