Template:GeoGroupTemplate
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Template documentationThis template generates external links to services that use all the WGS84 coordinates from a single Wikipedia article at a time. It is intended for use in the External links section of articles.
See Wikipedia:WikiProject Geographical coordinates for information on adding coordinates to articles. The linked services support community approved coordinate entry methods, and allow the following reuse methods:
- Coordinates from the Wikipedia page in a KML file suitable for use in Google Earth, NASA World Wind and similar applications.
- Microformatted coordinates from the Wikipedia page in a GeoRSS file.
- Link to Google Maps with the waypoints plotted onto a map.
Inline coordinates can be given a name using {{coord}} with the 'name' parameter. Conversion of any other annotation method is purely coincidental and may be discontinued at any time.
The template is not intended to be used on articles with single sets of coordinates; such coordinates already link directly to Template:GeoTemplate.
To use this template, add {{GeoGroupTemplate}} to the External links section of an article. There are no template parameters to enter.
[edit] Expansion
Other KML aware services may be added, as they become available; as might services converting the coordinates to GPX or other formats.
