Map of the Philippines

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

Map definition

  • name = Philippines
    Name used in the default map caption
  • bottom = 4.3
    Latitude at bottom edge of map, in decimal degrees
  • left = 114
    Longitude at left edge of map, in decimal degrees
  • right = 131.2
    Longitude at right edge of map, in decimal degrees

Alternative map

The {{Location map}}, {{Location map many}}, and {{Location map+}} templates have parameters to specify an alternative map image. The map displayed as image1 can be used with the relief or AlternativeMap parameters. Examples may be found below or in the following:

Precision

Longitude: from West to East this map definition covers 17.2 degrees.

  • At an image width of 200 pixels, that is 0.086 degrees per pixel.
  • At an image width of 1000 pixels, that is 0.0172 degrees per pixel.

Latitude: from North to South this map definition covers 16.9 degrees.

  • At an image height of 200 pixels, that is 0.0845 degrees per pixel.

Examples using location map templates

Location map, using default map (image)

 
 
Manila
Manila (Philippines)
{{Location map | Philippines
| width   = 250
| lat_deg = 14.58
| lon_deg = 120.97
| label   = Manila
}}

Location map many, using relief map (image1)

Template:Location map many

{{Location map many | Philippines
| relief   = yes
| width    = 250
| caption  = Two locations in the Philippines
| lat1_deg = 14.58
| lon1_deg = 120.97
| label1   = Manila
| lat2_deg = 6.052
| lon2_deg = 121.002
| label2   = Jolo
}}

Location map+, using AlternativeMap

 
 
Manila
 
Jolo
Two locations in the Philippines
{{Location map+ | Philippines
| AlternativeMap = Philippines relief location map.jpg
| width   = 250
| caption = Two locations in the Philippines
| places  =
  {{Location map~ | Philippines
  | lat_deg = 14.58
  | lon_deg = 120.97
  | label   = Manila
  }}
  {{Location map~ | Philippines
  | lat_deg = 6.052
  | lon_deg = 121.002
  | label   = Jolo
  }}
}}
