This template generates a location map as a composite image consisting of a map and a location mark. Optionally a label and caption can be added. Note: The template was copied whole from Wikipedia:Template:Location map, while we don't use all of its functionality, it was left intact to ease the process of future integration.

Basic Usage

Simple syntax versions

{{Location map| RegionName | long=XX |lat=YY }}
{{Location map| RegionName | long=XX |lat=YY | label= LocationName }}

Additional Options

Additional Map display parameters
Parameter	Description
`width`	Determines the width of the map in pixels. The default is 350. Do not include `px`, for example: `width=300`, not `width=300px`.
`caption`	The text of a caption to be displayed below the map. Specifying a caption will cause the map to be displayed with a frame. If `caption` is defined but is not assigned a value, the map will not be framed and no caption will be displayed. If `caption` is not defined, the map will not be framed and a default caption will be generated. The default caption is created from the `label` parameter (or the current page name if label not defined) and the `name` parameter from map definition template. See the examples below.
`alt`	Alt text for map; shown on mouse hover.
`position`	The position of the label relative to the mark. Valid values are `left`, `right`, `top` and `bottom`. The default is `right`.
`mark`	The name of an image to display as the mark. The default is Red pog.png (). See examples at Category:Location markers.
`link`	Specifies a wiki link which will be followed if the reader clicks on the mark. The name of the linked article is displayed when the mouse pointer hovers over the mark.
