This template adds a box to the right of the page, which includes a link to display map data – either from:

  • data stored in GeoJSON format on Commons
  • line/polygon features in OpenStreetMap.
  • coordinates, either supplied or from Wikidata
  • raw GeoJSON, preferably transcluded from another page

Note:

{{Mapbox}} utilises Template:Maplink. As a result, usage of the two templates is very similar.

Basic usage
Type Code Notes Example
Data page on Commons {{mapbox|from=}} specify .map data page in from=, excluding the Data prefix
Raw GeoJSON data {{mapbox|raw=}} e.g. {{Wikipedia:Map data/Main Roads Western Australia/Forrest Highway}}
Line of a border or a linear feature from OSM {{mapbox|type=line|id=}} id= only required if the Wikidata item isn't linked to the current page
Shape from OSM {{mapbox|type=shape|id=}} id= only required if the Wikidata item isn't linked to the current page
Inverted shape from OSM {{mapbox|type=shape-inverse|id=}} id= only required if the Wikidata item isn't linked to the current page
Point feature from Wikidata coordinates {{mapbox|type=point|id=}} id= only required if the Wikidata item isn't linked to the current page
Point feature from specified coordinates {{mapbox|type=point|coord=}} Use {{Coord}} template to specify coordinates

Full parameter set – data page

{{mapbox
|from=
|zoom=
|text=
|text-left=
|above=
|below=
}}

Full parameter set – raw data

{{maplink
|raw= <!-- preferably {{Wikipedia:Map data/subpage}} -->
|zoom=
|text=
|text-left=
|above=
|below=
}}

Full parameter set – OSM features

{{mapbox
|type=
|id=
|title=
|description=
|stroke-color=
|stroke-width=
|zoom=
|text=
|text-left=
|above=
|below=
}}

Full parameter set – point features/coordinates

{{mapbox
|type=point
|id=
|title=
|description=
|coord=
|marker=
|zoom=
|text=
|text-left=
|above=
|below=
}}

Up to five links can be included within the one box by adding "2", "3", "4" or "5" to the end of the parameter name - e.g.data2 or description2. All parameters support this except for above, below and text-left. Unlike the first link (where it is optional), the text parameter is required for links 2-5.

Parameters affecting the maps

संपादन करीं
type
Type of data. Valid values are:
line – a geoline feature from OSM (e.g. a road)
shape – a geoshape feature from OSM (e.g. a state or province)
shape-inverse – a geomask feature from OSM (the inverse of a geoshape - allows an unobstructed view of the map beneath)
data – a geoJSON data page on Commons (parameter is optional in this case)
point – a point feature (coordinates)
id
(or ids)
Wikidata id (Q-number) that the OSM feature is tagged with. Separate multiple ids with a comma. Defaults to the current page's Wikidata id (if |from= not set).
from
The JSON (.map) file from Commons to display (excluding the Data: prefix)
raw
raw GeoJSON (preferably transcluded from a subpage of Wikipedia:Map data) as well as <maplink> functionality not available via the other parameters. See below for more information.
title
Title of the feature (for features from OSM), displayed when the feature is clicked on; default is the page title
description
Description of the feature (for features from OSM), displayed when the feature is clicked on; optional
coord
Coordinates to display for a point feature. Use {{Coord}} template to specify coordinates. If not set, coordinates will be retrieved from Wikidata.
marker
Name of Maki marker image to display at the point feature. See mw:Maps/Icons for options. Defaults to marker (plain marker) if not set.
stroke-color
(or stroke-colour)
Colour code for the colour used to draw the feature (for features from OSM); default is #555555 ( )
stroke-width
Width for the lines used to draw the feature (for features from OSM); default is 5
zoom
Zoom level, from 1 to 19 (larger numbers zoom in further); will be automatically determined if not set

Parameters affecting the box

संपादन करीं
above
Content (such as explanatory text) appearing above the links
below
Content (such as explanatory text) appearing below the links
text
Text to display for the link; default is "View map"
text-left
Set this to yes to change the link text from centre-aligned to left-aligned

When to use the raw parameter

संपादन करीं

The "raw" parameter allows the same inputs as the full <maplink> function. It allows you to:

  • Use GeoJSON data directly
  • Use a combination of data sources together (direct GeoJSON, external data from Wikimedia Commons and external data from OpenStreetMap)
  • Have more options for directly styling data (data from Commons will inherit the styling specified in the .map page)
  • Include multiple pieces of external data from Wikimedia Commons
  • Use Wikidata queries to obtain information for the map
  • Use templates - if a map includes direct GeoJSON or many components, placing the data in a template will avoid cluttering the article text
  • When retrieving lines or shapes from OSM, you can't style the fill colour or the opacity level of fills or strokes (unless you use the |raw= parameter).
  • The following code utilising the |raw= parameter won't work because the curly brace to close the GeoJSON is adjacent to the curly braces to close the template:
{{Mapbox|raw= {"type": "ExternalData","service": "geoshape","ids": "Q13518258"}}}
To fix it, put a space before the two template braces or move them to a separate line.
  • {{Maplink}}'s multiple features functionality doesn't work; use |raw= instead.
