Mapping services
This parser hook is supported by these mapping services:
Syntax
{{#display_points: <your locations> |height= <some height> |service= <your service> }}
Parameters
| Parameter
|
Aliases
|
Default
|
Usage
|
| Default, Coordinates or Address
|
-
|
required
|
The location the map will initially be centred on. Depending on which name you provide for this parameter, the values will be treated differently. This behaviour will be removed in 0.7.
- Default (nameless) parameter: Provide either an address or set of coordinates, and Maps will figure out what to do with it.
- Coordinates: Only valid coordinates will be accepted, addresses will not be geocoded.
- Address: The location will be treated as an address and geocoded, even when it's a set of coordinates.
|
| service
|
-
|
configurable
|
Allows to set the mapping service that will be used to generate the map.
|
| geoservice
|
-
|
configurable
|
Allows to set the geocoding service used to turn the location into coordinates when it's an address.
|
| width
|
-
|
configurable
|
Allows to set the width of the map, in pixels.
|
| height
|
-
|
configurable
|
Allows to set the height of the map, in pixels.
|
| zoom
|
-
|
configurable
|
Allows to set the zoom level of the map. When not provided and multiple markers are present on the map, the best fitting zoom will be taken, not the configurable default.
|
| centre
|
center
|
configurable
|
Allows to set the coordinates of the map's centre for display_point(s). Accepts both addresses and coordinates. When this property is not provided, the map will centre itself on the provided marker, or between the provided markers.
|
| title
|
-
|
empty
|
Allows to set text that will be displayed in the pop-ups of all markers that do not have a specific title. When used together with label, the title will be bold and have a line under it.
|
| label
|
-
|
empty
|
Allows to set text that will be displayed in the pop-ups of all markers that do not have a specific label.
|
| icon
|
-
|
Default mapping service marker
|
Allows you to set the icon used for all markers. Should be "File:Foo.png" or "Foo.png" for a picture in the Wiki. An external link is also possible.
