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

{{Location map|USA Cape Cod |...}}
{{Location map many|USA Cape Cod |...}}
{{Location map+|USA Cape Cod |...}}
{{Location map~|USA Cape Cod |...}}

Map definition

name = Cape Cod
Name used in the default map caption

image = USA Mass Cape Cod location map.svg
The default map image, without "Image:" or "File:"

top = 42.104054

bottom = 41.488985
Latitude at bottom edge of map, in decimal degrees

left = -70.84478
Longitude at left edge of map, in decimal degrees

right = -69.77812
Longitude at right edge of map, in decimal degrees

Location map+

Here is a fairly complex real-world example, showing 17 points and linked labels in a small 320px image. Careful experimentation with "|position=" and "|background=" allows us to legibly label the points:
