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

((Location map|Australia New South Wales |...))
((Location map many|Australia New South Wales |...))
((Location map+|Australia New South Wales |...))
((Location map~|Australia New South Wales |...))

Map definition

name = New South Wales
Name used in the default map caption

image = Australia New South Wales location map blank.svg
The default map image, without "Image:" or "File:"
image1 = Australia New South Wales relief location map.png
An alternative map image, usually a relief map, which can be displayed via the relief or AlternativeMap parameters
image2 = Australia New South Wales location map.svg
Alternative map image which can be displayed via the AlternativeMap parameter
top = -27.9
Latitude at top edge of map, in decimal degrees

bottom = -37.8
Latitude at bottom edge of map, in decimal degrees

left = 140.6
Longitude at left edge of map, in decimal degrees

right = 153.9
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. The map displayed as image2 can be used with the AlternativeMap parameter. Examples may be found below or in the following:

Precision

Longitude: from West to East this map definition covers 13.3 degrees.

At an image width of 200 pixels, that is 0.0665 degrees per pixel.
At an image width of 1000 pixels, that is 0.0133 degrees per pixel.

Latitude: from North to South this map definition covers 9.9 degrees.
