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

• {{Location map|Seattle WA Downtown |...}}
• {{Location map many|Seattle WA Downtown |...}}
• {{Location map+|Seattle WA Downtown |...}}
• {{Location map~|Seattle WA Downtown |...}}

Map definition

• name = Downtown Seattle

  Name used in the default map caption

• image = Downtown Seattle, Washington, USGS National Map, 2025.png

  The default map image, without "Image:" or "File:"
