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

Map definition

  • name = the Soviet Union
    Name used in the default map caption
  • x = sin((($2<0)*360+$2)/70.032-1.4993)*(115.34-1.2134*$1)+58.71
    An expression to calculate a location on the map via its longitude; evaluates as 0 along the left edge and 100 along the right edge
  • y = cos((($2<0)*360+$2)/70.032-1.4993)*(186.47-1.9618*$1)-11.25
    An expression to calculate a location on the map via its latitude; evaluates as 0 along the top edge and 100 along the bottom edge
