Template:Infobox mapframe/doc

This template generates a mapframe map, suitable for infoboxes, with minimal user input. This template only works with single features (points, lines, or shapes); use {{maplink}} if more advanced options, such as displaying multiple features, are required.

If coordinates are not supplied, they will be fetched from the page's Wikidata item. In such cases, if |point= is not set, then a point feature marker is displayed at those coordinates unless the Wikidata item has an

specified.

Usage

Note: When in mainspace, parameter |id= is not required (except to use a different page's data)

Basic

{{Infobox mapframe}}

When used without parameters, or with only |id=, the map will display either a shape, line, or point feature, depending on the data available on Wikidata and OpenStreetMap.

• If the Wikidata item does not specify a

1. REDIRECT Template:Wikidata entity link

value, then a point marker will be displayed by default in addition any OSM shape or line feature.

• If the Wikidata items does not specify a

1. REDIRECT Template:Wikidata entity link

or a

value, then no map will be displayed

Basic usage examples

Point feature (Wikidata coordinates): {{Infobox mapframe |id=Q7270550}} Line feature: {{Infobox mapframe |id=Q1318331}} Shape feature: {{Infobox mapframe |id=Q61}} Using specified coordinates instead of Wikidata Point feature only, no shapes or lines: {{Infobox mapframe |coord=}} Point feature and shape/line feature if available: {{Infobox mapframe |wikidata=yes |coord=}} Specify coordinates using the {{Coord}} templates, e.g. |coord={{Coord|32.1|S|116.2|E}} If |coord= is specified, then by default only that coordinate will be displayed (no line or shape features) If |coord= is specified and |wikidata=yes is used, then those coordinate will be displayed, along with any line or shape features linked to the Wikidata item. Specified coordinates examples Point feature (with coordinates specified, no shape/line feature from Wikidata item): {{infobox mapframe |coord={{coord|31|56|S|115|58|E}} }} Point feature (with coordinates specified, along with shape/line feature from Wikidata item): {{infobox mapframe |wikidata=yes |coord={{coord|31|56|S|115|58|E}} }} Customizing which features are displayed Inverse shape {{Infobox mapframe |shape=inverse}} Replace the shape with an inverse-shape (geomask) by setting |shape=inverse Inverse shape example {{Infobox mapframe |id=Q61 |shape=inverse}} Turn point marker on or off Force point marker to be displayed: {{Infobox mapframe |point=on}} Prevent point marker from being displayed: {{Infobox mapframe |point=none}} Turn shape feature off Prevent shape feature from being displayed: {{Infobox mapframe |shape=none}} Turn line feature off Prevent line feature from being displayed: {{Infobox mapframe |line=none}} Show a geomask from a related Wikidata item {{Infobox mapframe |geomask=}} Set |geomask= to a Wikidata item id (Q-number), or property id (P-number) such as REDIRECT Template:Wikidata entity link Geomask examples Use the item linked from the REDIRECT Template:Wikidata entity link statement as a geomask: {{Infobox mapframe |id=Q3239281 |geomask=P17}} Use the item REDIRECT Template:Wikidata entity link as a geomask: {{Infobox mapframe |id=Q3239281 |geomask=Q1199}} Determine zoom from object length or area Use any of the following parameters to specify an object's dimension: |length_km= |length_mi= |width_km= |width_mi= |area_km2= |area_mi2= |area_ha= |area_acre= Additionally, the zoom of the mapframe can be set by specifying the |type= of the object, with the same usage as {{coord}}. For example, |type=city. In the case of a city, the population can determine the zoom by specifying |population=. Zoom from length/area examples Determine zoom from object length in kilometres or miles {{Infobox mapframe |id=Q1318331 |length_km=5.6}} {{Infobox mapframe |id=Q1318331 |length_mi=3.5}} Determine zoom from object area in square kilometres or square miles {{Infobox mapframe |id=Q100 |area_km2=232.14}} {{Infobox mapframe |id=Q100 |area_mi2=89.63}} Parameters All parameters are optional.

IF SET TO auto – switch geomasks found in location (P276) and located in the administrative territorial entity (P131) statements on the page's Wikidata item, searching recursively. E.g. an item's city, that city's state, and that state's country. IF SET TO geomasks – switch between the geomasks specified as a comma-separated list of Wikidata items (Q-numbers) in the mapframe-geomask parameter. IF SET TO zooms – switch between "zoomed in"/"zoomed midway"/"zoomed out", where "zoomed in" is the default zoom (with a minimum of 3), "zoomed out" is 1, and "zoomed midway" is the average.
