Template:Coord/doc
Quick guide
To add 57°18′22.5″N 4°27′32.7″W / 57.30625°N 4.459083°W to the top of a page, use {{Coord}}, thus:
These coordinates are in degrees, minutes, and seconds of arc. |
To add 44°06′43″N 87°54′47″W / 44.112°N 87.913°W to the top of a page, use either
or
These coordinates are in decimal degrees. |

Optional coordinate parameters follow the longitude and are separated by an underscore ("_"):
Other optional parameters are separated by a pipe ("|"):
Thus:

Purpose
{{Coord/doc}} provides a standard notation for encoding locations by their latitude and longitude coordinates. It is primarily for specifying the WGS84 geographic coordinates of locations on Earth, at the same time emitting a machine-readable Geo microformat. However, it can also encode locations on natural satellites, dwarf planets, and planets other than Earth.
Features
Latitude and longitude may be specified (with appropriate precision) either in decimal notation or as degrees/minutes/seconds. By default, coordinates appear in the format used to specify them. However, the format= parameter can be used to force display in a particular format.
The template displays the formatted coordinates with a hyperlink to GeoHack. GeoHack displays information customized to the location, including links to external mapping services.
For terrestrial locations, a blue globe (
) appears to the left of the hyperlink. Clicking on the globe activates the WikiMiniAtlas (requires JavaScript).
By default, coordinates appear "in line" with the adjacent text. However, the display= parameter can be used to move the coordinates up near the page title—or display them in both places at once.
The template outputs coordinates in three formats:
- Degree/minutes/seconds ("DMS", precision is degrees, or degrees/minutes, or degrees/minutes/seconds, based on input precision). Default
- Decimal degrees (varying the number of decimal places based on input precision)
- A machine readable Geo microformat.
Logged-in users can customize how coordinates appear in their browsers.
Usage
{{Coord/doc|latitude|longitude|coordinate parameters|template parameters}}
{{Coord/doc|dd|N/S|dd|E/W|coordinate parameters|template parameters}}
{{Coord/doc|dd|mm|N/S|dd|mm|E/W|coordinate parameters|template parameters}}
{{Coord/doc|dd|mm|ss|N/S|dd|mm|ss|E/W|coordinate parameters|template parameters}}
The hemisphere identifiers (N/S) and (E/W), if used, must be adjacent to the enclosing pipe "|" characters, and cannot be preceded or succeeded by spaces.
There are two kinds of parameters, all optional:
- Coordinate parameters are parameters that {{Coord/doc}} passes to the map server. These have the format parameter:value and are separated from each other by the underscore character ( _ ). The supported coordinate parameters are dim:, globe:, region:, scale:, source:, and type:. See coordinate parameters for details and examples.
- Template parameters are parameters used by the {{ Coord/doc}} template. These have format parameter=value and are separated from each other by the pipe character ( | ). The supported template parameters are display=, format=, name=, and notes=.
- display= can be one of the following:
display=inline– Display the coordinate inline (default)display=title– Display the coordinate near the page title- shortcut:
display=t
- shortcut:
display=inline,title– Display the coordinate both inline and at title- shortcut:
display=it
- shortcut:
display=title,inlinehas the same effect asdisplay=inline,title
- Note: the
titleattribute indicates that the coordinates apply to the entire page, and not just one of (perhaps many) places mentioned in it — so it should only be omitted in the latter case.
- format= can be used to force dec or dms coordinate display.
format=decreformats the coordinates to decimal degrees format.format=dmsreformats the coordinates to degrees | minutes | seconds format.
- name= can be used to annotate inline coordinates for display in map services such as the WikiMiniAtlas. If omitted, the article title (PAGENAME) is assumed.
- Note: a name= parameter causes {{Coord/doc}} to emit an hCard microformat using that name, even if used within an existing hCard. Do not use when the name is that of a person (e.g for a gravesite), as the generated hCard would be invalid. Also, do not use square brackets in names.
- notes= specifies text to be displayed immediately following the coordinates. This is primarily intended for adding footnotes to title coordinates.

Coordinate parameters
The first unnamed parameter following the longitude is an optional string of coordinate parameters, separated by underscores. These parameters help GeoHack select suitable map resources, and they will become more important when Wikimaps becomes fully functional.
type:T
The type: parameter specifies the type of location for reverse mapping (for instance, to select a marker icon in the WikiMiniAtlas).
It also sets the map scale, which can however be overridden by dim: or scale:.
Valid types are:

Purpose{{Coord/doc}} provides a standard notation for encoding locations by their latitude and longitude coordinates. It is primarily for specifying the WGS84 geographic coordinates of locations on Earth, at the same time emitting a machine-readable Geo microformat. However, it can also encode locations on natural satellites, dwarf planets, and planets other than Earth. FeaturesLatitude and longitude may be specified (with appropriate precision) either in decimal notation or as degrees/minutes/seconds. By default, coordinates appear in the format used to specify them. However, the The template displays the formatted coordinates with a hyperlink to GeoHack. GeoHack displays information customized to the location, including links to external mapping services.

scale:N
The scale: parameter specifies the desired map scale as 1:N, overriding the scale implied by any type: parameter.
GeoHack uses scale: to select a map scale for a 72 dpi computer monitor. If no dim:, type:, or scale: parameters are provided, GeoHack uses its default scale of 1:300,000.

The dim: parameter defines the diameter of a viewing circle centered on the coordinate. While the default unit of measurement is meters, the km suffix may be appended to indicate kilometers.

The following templates are "subroutines" of {{Coord}}. Separating them out drastically reduces the pre-expand size of {{Coord}}. They shouldn't be invoked directly.
| name | function |
|---|---|
| {{Coord/display/inline}} | displays coordinates inline |
| {{Coord/display/inline,title}} | displays coordinates inline and above the page |
| {{Coord/display/title}} | displays coordinates above the page (generally to the right of the page's title) |
| {{Coord/link}} | generates microformats and link to GeoHack |
| {{Coord/input/dec}} | reads coordinates in decimal degrees {{coord|12|-12}} |
| {{Coord/input/d}} | reads coordinates in decimal degrees with directional letters {{coord|12|N|12|W}} |
| {{Coord/input/dm}} | reads coordinates in degrees/minutes format {{coord|12|12|N|12|12|W}} |
| {{Coord/input/dms}} | reads coordinates in degrees/minutes/seconds format {{coord|12|12|12|N|12|12|12|W}} |
| {{Coord/input/ERROR}} | generates error message if the inputs do not match any of the above formats |
| {{Coord/input/error2}} | generates error message for range checks and such |
| {{Coord/input/nolat}} | generates error message for missing latitude |
| {{Coord/negzeropad}} | pads a positive number with trailing zeroes until it matches the precision of a negative number |
| {{Coord/dec2dms}} | takes a decimal coordinate and two cardinal directions and renders a coordinate in degrees/minutes/seconds |
| {{Coord/dms2dec}} | converts cardinal direction and degree/minutes/seconds to decimal coordinate |
| {{Coord/prec dec}} | selects a format for converting decimal degrees, based on the precision of the inputs |
