Map of Cameroon

Template:Location map Cameroon is a location map definition used to overlay markers and labels on an equirectangular projection map of Cameroon. 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 "Cameroon":

Map definition

Alternative map

The map defined as image1 (Template:Location map/data/Cameroon) can be displayed by using the relief or AlternativeMap parameters in {{Location map}}, {{Location map many}} and {{Location map+}}. The map defined as image2 (Template:Location map/data/Cameroon) can only be displayed by using the AlternativeMap parameter. The use of these two parameters is shown in the examples below.
