Map of Tanzania

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

Map definition

  • name = Tanzania
    Name used in the default map caption
  • bottom = -13
    Latitude at bottom edge of map, in decimal degrees
  • left = 28
    Longitude at left edge of map, in decimal degrees
  • right = 42
    Longitude at right edge of map, in decimal degrees

Alternative map

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