Main Syntax


Template used for geo-codeing images from other planets (moons, etc.) than earth. Locations can be provided using degrees/minutes/seconds (DMS) notation or decimal notation. See Commons:Geocoding for more information.

The template automatically sets the following categories: Category:Media with locations or Category:Media with erroneous locations

Usage

{{Object location|1=|2=|3=|4=|5=|6=|7=|8=|9=|10=}}

Should be placed directly below {{Information}}, {{Artwork}} or other similar template. If {{Location}} template is also present than it should be placed above this template.

Parameters

Parameter name Description Default value required or optional?
parameter #1 (1) Degrees of Latitude empty required
parameter #2 (2) Minutes of Latitude empty required
parameter #3 (3) Seconds of Latitude empty required
parameter #4 (4) Latitude Direction (N or S) empty required
parameter #5 (5) Degrees of Longitude empty required
parameter #6 (6) Minutes of Longitude empty required
parameter #7 (7) Seconds of Longitude empty required
parameter #8 (8) Longitude Direction (W or E) empty required
parameter #9 (9) Name of the globe. Currently: Mars, Moon, Venus, Mercury, Titan, Ganymede, and Earth. Earth required
parameter #10 (10) Information attributes - used to pass to GeoHack server metadata about the coordinates. This information is not used by {{Globe location}} template. Attributes have to be in the format field1:value1_field2:value2_field3:value3, etc. The following fields are supported:
  • region:XX-YYY specifies the political region, used to select appropriate map resources. See here for more info.
  • XX is an ISO 3166-1 alpha 2 country code abbreviation, and
  • YYY is a 1-, 2- or 3- characters ISO 3166-2 (see en:ISO 3166-2#Format for details) province/region/state code abbreviation (typically the same as a local postal code abbreviation).
  • heading: indicate the direction the camera was pointing at. It is given as degree values 0-360 (clockwise with north as 0) or a compass point abbreviation (up to four letters) as defined in Boxing the compass. (Example: heading:NW)
  • scale:N specifies the desired map scale as 1:N. Since most images are at the lowest scale, the parameter should be given only if values different from the default are desired. See here for more info.
  • dim:<width><units> specifies the width of the object in meters or kilometers (example: dim:120m or dim:10km. Since most images are at the lowest scale, the parameter should be given only if values different from the default are desired. See here for more info.
  • class:object is hard-coded value which will be added automatically to all images to tag this location as the ""object location
empty optional
