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:

Examples using location map templates

Location map, using default map (image)

 
 
Dodoma
Dodoma (Tanzania)
{{Location map | Tanzania
| width   = 250
| lat_deg = -6.17
| lon_deg = 35.74
| label   = Dodoma
}}

Location map many, using relief map (image1)

 
 
Dodoma
 
Mwanza
Two locations in Tanzania
{{Location map many | Tanzania
| relief   = yes
| width    = 250
| caption  = Two locations in Tanzania
| lat1_deg = -6.17
| lon1_deg = 35.74
| label1   = Dodoma
| pos1     = bottom
| lat2_deg = -2.52
| lon2_deg = 32.90
| label2   = Mwanza
| pos2     = bottom
}}

Location map+, using AlternativeMap

 
 
Dodoma
 
Mwanza
Two locations in Tanzania
{{Location map+ | Tanzania
| AlternativeMap = Tanzania relief location map.svg
| width   = 250
| caption = Two locations in Tanzania
| places  =
  {{Location map~ | Tanzania
  | lat_deg  = -6.17
  | lon_deg  = 35.74
