Location of Picardy in France

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

• {{Location map|France Picardy |...}}
• {{Location map many|France Picardy |...}}
• {{Location map+|France Picardy |...}}
• {{Location map~|France Picardy |...}}

Map definition

• name = Picardy

  Name used in the default map caption

• image = Picardie region location map.svg

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

• image1 = Picardie region relief location map.jpg

  An alternative map image, usually a relief map, which can be displayed via the relief or AlternativeMap parameters

• top = 50.5

  Latitude at top edge of map, in decimal degrees

• bottom = 48.7

  Latitude at bottom edge of map, in decimal degrees

• left = 1.2

  Longitude at left edge of map, in decimal degrees

• right = 4.4

• Template:Location map#Relief parameter
• Template:Location map+/relief
• Template:Location map#AlternativeMap parameter
• Template:Location map+/AlternativeMap
