Map of Kazakhstan

Module:Location map/data/Kazakhstan is a location map definition used to overlay markers and labels on an equirectangular projection map of Kazakhstan. 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 "Kazakhstan":

Map definition

  • name = Kazakhstan
    Name used in the default map caption
  • bottom = 40
    Latitude at bottom edge of map, in decimal degrees
  • left = 46
    Longitude at left edge of map, in decimal degrees
  • right = 88
    Longitude at right edge of map, in decimal degrees

Alternative map

The {{Location map}}, {{Location map many}}, and {{Location map+}} templates have parameters to specify an alternative map image. The map displayed as image1 can be used with the relief or AlternativeMap parameters. Examples may be found below or in the following:

Precision

Longitude: from West to East this map definition covers 42 degrees.

  • At an image width of 200 pixels, that is 0.21 degrees per pixel.
  • At an image width of 1000 pixels, that is 0.042 degrees per pixel.

Latitude: from North to South this map definition covers 16 degrees.

  • At an image height of 200 pixels, that is 0.08 degrees per pixel.
  • At an image height of 1000 pixels, that is 0.016 degrees per pixel.

Examples using location map templates

Location map, using default map (image)

 
 
Astana
Astana (Kazakhstan)
{{Location map | Kazakhstan
| width   = 250
| lat_deg = 51.17
| lon_deg = 71.43
| label   = Astana
}}

Location map many, using relief map (image1)

 
 
Astana
 
Almaty
Two locations in Kazakhstan
{{Location map many | Kazakhstan
| relief   = yes
| width    = 250
| caption  = Two locations in Kazakhstan
| lat1_deg = 51.17
| lon1_deg = 71.43
| label1   = Astana
| lat2_deg = 43.28
| lon2_deg = 76.9
| label2   = Almaty
}}

Location map+, using AlternativeMap

 
 
Astana
 
Almaty
Two locations in Kazakhstan
{{Location map+ | Kazakhstan
| AlternativeMap = Relief Map of Kazakhstan.png
| width   = 250
| caption = Two locations in Kazakhstan
| places  =
  {{Location map~ | Kazakhstan
  | lat_deg = 51.17
  | lon_deg = 71.43
  | label   = Astana
  }}
  {{Location map~ | Kazakhstan
  | lat_deg = 43.28
  | lon_deg = 76.9
  | label   = Almaty
  }}
}}
