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

((Location map|Israel |...))
((Location map many|Israel |...))
((Location map+|Israel |...))
((Location map~|Israel |...))

Map definition

name = Israel
Name used in the default map caption

image = Israel location map with stripes.svg
The default map image, without "Image:" or "File:"
image1 = Israel relief location map.jpg
An alternative map image, usually a relief map, which can be displayed via the relief or AlternativeMap parameters
image2 = Israel relief location map-blank.jpg
image3 = Israel fullyeco location map.svg
Alternative map images which can be displayed via the AlternativeMap parameter
top = 33.5
Latitude at top edge of map, in decimal degrees

bottom = 29.3
Latitude at bottom edge of map, in decimal degrees

left = 33.7
Longitude at left edge of map, in decimal degrees

right = 36.3
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 maps displayed as image2 / image3 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 2.6 degrees.

At an image width of 200 pixels, that is 0.013 degrees per pixel.
At an image width of 1000 pixels, that is 0.0026 degrees per pixel.

Latitude: from North to South this map definition covers 4.2 degrees.

At an image height of 200 pixels, that is 0.021 degrees per pixel.
At an image height of 1000 pixels, that is 0.0042 degrees per pixel.

Examples using location map templates

Location map, using default map (image)

Jerusalem

Jerusalem (Israel)

((Location map | Israel
| width   = 180
| lat_deg = 31.78
| lon_deg = 35.22
| label   = Jerusalem
))

Location map many, using relief map (image1)

Jerusalem

Haifa

Eilat

Three locations in Israel

((Location map many | Israel
| relief   = yes
| width    = 180
| caption  = Three locations in Israel
| lat1_deg = 31.78
| lon1_deg = 35.22
| label1   = Jerusalem
| lat2_deg = 32.82
| lon2_deg = 34.98
| label2   = Haifa
| lat3_deg = 29.55
| lon3_deg = 34.95
| label3   = Eilat
))

Location map+, using AlternativeMap

Jerusalem

Haifa

Eilat

Three locations in Israel

((Location map+ | Israel
| AlternativeMap = Israel relief location map-blank.jpg
| width   = 180
| caption = Three locations in Israel
| places  =
  ((Location map~ | Israel
  | lat_deg = 31.78
  | lon_deg = 35.22
  | label   = Jerusalem
  ))
  ((Location map~ | Israel
  | lat_deg = 32.82
  | lon_deg = 34.98
  | label   = Haifa
  ))
