Template:Location map/doc

<!--

The location map template generates a location map as a composite image, consisting of a map and a location mark. Optionally, a label and caption can be added.

Usage
This template uses the entry for the Commonwealth in Module:Location map/data/Commonwealth if it exists, which contains the data needed to generate the composite image.

Please note

 * Assigning any value to the parameter caption causes the map to be displayed as a thumbnail image. If this parameter is not declared, the template will generate a default caption.
 * The coordinates are not checked. If the coordinates specified fall outside the area covered by the map image, the location mark will not display inside the image; however, it may be displayed somewhere else on the page.
