'''Template:Location map China''' is a location map definition used to overlay markers and labels on an [[equidistant conic projection]] map of [[People's Republic of China|China]]. The markers are placed by [[latitude]] and [[longitude]] coordinates on the default map or a similar map image.

Template:Location map China is a location map definition used to overlay markers and labels on an equidistant conic projection map of China. 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 "China":

Map definition

name
used in default map caption (Template:Location map/data/China)
image
the default map image, without "Image:" or "File:" ([[:File:Template:Location map/data/China|Template:Location map/data/China]])
image1
an alternative map image, usually a relief map ([[:File:Template:Location map/data/China|Template:Location map/data/China]])
x
an expression to calculate a location on the map via its longitude; evaluates as 0 along the left edge and 100 along the right edge
y
an expression to calculate a location on the map via its latitude; evaluates as 0 along the top edge and 100 along the bottom edge

Alternative map

The map shown above as image1 (Template:Location map/data/China) can be displayed by using the AlternativeMap or relief parameters in {{Location map}}, {{Location map many}} and {{Location map+}}. Further instructions can be found at Template:Location map#Using Alternative Map and Template:Location map#Relief, or see the examples below.

Examples

Location map, using default map (image)

Qinghai Lake is located in China
Qinghai Lake
Qinghai Lake
Qinghai Lake (China)
{{Location map | China
| width  = 250
| lat    = 37
| long   = 100
| label  = Qinghai Lake
| marksize = 6
}}

Location map, using relief map (image1)

Qinghai Lake is located in China
Qinghai Lake
Qinghai Lake
Qinghai Lake (China)
{{Location map | China
| relief = yes
| width  = 250
| lat    = 37
| long   = 100
| label  = Qinghai Lake
| marksize = 6
}}

Location map many, using default map

| long    = 116.39
| label   = Beijing
| lat2    = 31.2
| long2   = 121.5
| label2  = Shanghai
}}
