The Location map template is helpful for creating static maps on the wiki.

Maps Supported

This template will work for all 50 states and the District of Columbia. To use more than one point, use the Location map many template.

Parameters

mapname - the name of the map
width - the width of the map in pixels (do not include "px")
label - the name of the point
coordinates - the coordinates of the point

Optional parameters

Reference wikipedia's documentation for additional parameters.

Finding Coordinates

Do you not know how to find coordinates for an object? This should help:

  1. Understand that for coordinates in North America, longitude should generally be between -130 and -60 and latitude should generally be between 50 and 20
  2. Use a search engine to find the coordinates. For example, "Boca Raton Community High School coordinates".
  3. Get the coordinates from a search result.
  4. Make sure longitude (the bigger number) is negative and latitude (the smaller number) is positive
  5. Discard anything regarding "N", "E", "S", "W" and make sure your coordinates are simply a decimal number (no ', ", or ° characters)

Examples

Code Result
{{Location map | Florida
| width = 250
| float = right
| label = Boca Raton Community High School
  | coordinates = {{coord|26.362254|-80.116757}}
}}
Boca Raton Community High School is located in Florida
