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

{{Location map|France Normandy |...}}
{{Location map many|France Normandy |...}}
{{Location map+|France Normandy |...}}
{{Location map~|France Normandy |...}}

Map definition

name = Normandy
Name used in the default map caption

image = Normandie region location map.svg
The default map image, without "Image:" or "File:"
image1 = Normandie region relief location map.jpg
An alternative map image, usually a relief map, which can be displayed via the relief or AlternativeMap parameters
top = 50.182
Latitude at top edge of map, in decimal degrees

bottom = 48.062
Latitude at bottom edge of map, in decimal degrees

left = -2.1395
Longitude at left edge of map, in decimal degrees

right = 1.955
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. Examples may be found below or in the following:
