Map of Australia

Template:Location map Australia is a location map definition used to overlay markers and labels on an equirectangular projection map of Australia. 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":

• {{Location map | Australia | ...}}
• {{Location map many | Australia | ...}}
• {{Location map+ | Australia | ...}}
• {{Location map~ | Australia | ...}}

Map definition

• name = Australia

  Name used in the default map caption

• image = Australia location map.svg

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

• image1 = Australia relief map.jpg

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

• image2 = Australia location map grey.svg

  A second alternative map image, can be displayed via the AlternativeMap parameter only

• top = -9

  Latitude at top edge of map, in decimal degrees

• bottom = -44.5

  Latitude at bottom edge of map, in decimal degrees

• left = 111.5

  Longitude at left edge of map, in decimal degrees

• right = 155

  Longitude at right edge of map, in decimal degrees

Alternative map

The map defined as image1 (Australia relief map.jpg) can be displayed by using the relief or AlternativeMap parameters in {{Location map}}, {{Location map many}} and {{Location map+}}. The map defined as image2 (Australia location map grey.svg) can only be displayed by using the AlternativeMap parameter. The use of these two parameters is shown in the examples below. Additional examples can be found at:

Precision

Longitude: from West to East this map definition covers 43.5 degrees.
