Map and coordinates
It is usually not necessary to use the coordinates= parameter, or the optional map_locator= parameter.
- The latitude and longitude of the station may be specified:
- in decimal degrees, using
latitude=andlongitude=OR - in degrees/minutes/seconds, using
latd=,latm=,lats=,latNS=,longd=,longm=,longs=, andlongEW=.
- in decimal degrees, using
- To display coordinates at the top of the page, use
coordinates_display=yes. Otherwise coordinates will appear in the infobox only. - The ISO 3166-1 alpha-2 or ISO 3166-2 region code can often be determined automatically, based on the
country=parameter.- To override the automatic value, use the
iso_region=parameter.
- To override the automatic value, use the
One advantage of omitting the coordinates= and the map_locator= parameters is that you can display a {{Location map}} without duplicating coordinates.
{{Infobox station
...
| coordinates_display = <!-- non-blank to display coordinates at the top of the page. -->
| iso_region = <!-- To override any automatically determined region code. -->
| map_type = <!-- Location from Location map. -->
| map_alt = <!-- Alternative map file name (changes background map, border coordinates are determined based on the map name); this is only recommended for use in templates. -->
| map_overlay = <!-- Overlay image file name, to be placed on top of the main map. Should have the same border coordinates. -->
| map_caption = <!-- ''map caption''; for no caption enter "caption="; if the parameter is omitted then the caption will be "Marker text (location map name)" -->
...
}}
- Parameters to specify coordinates in degrees, minutes, and seconds of arc:
{{Infobox station
...
| latd = <!-- ''latitude'' degrees -->
| latm = <!-- ''latitude'' minutes -->
| lats = <!-- ''latitude'' seconds -->
| latNS = <!-- latitude: S=south, N=north (default) -->
| longd = <!-- ''longitude'' degrees -->
| longm = <!-- ''longitude'' minutes -->
| longs = <!-- ''longitude'' seconds -->
| longEW = <!-- longitude: W=west, E=east (default) -->
...
}}
- Parameters to specify coordinates in decimal degrees:
{{Infobox station
...
| latitude = <!-- ''latitude'' (decimal format; enter negative numbers for southern latitude) -->
| longitude = <!-- ''longitude'' (decimal format; enter negative numbers for western longitude) -->
...
}}
Note: coordinates in decimal degrees are sensitive to extra whitespace in the parameters:
- Incorrect:
| longitude = - 123.45 - Correct:
| longitude = -123.45
External style template
An external style template may be used to allow the modification of display parameters. This can be the same template that is used in conjunction with Template:S-line, but may be a different template. The |style= parameter is used to specify the name of the template where the styling is defined; the template's name must end with the word "style", but this word must be omitted from the |style= parameter. For example, |style=Amtrak will use the {{Amtrak style}} template.
| Parameter | Description |
|---|---|
| name_format | Formatting the station name in Infobox station |
| thcolor | Font color for table headings in Infobox station |
| thbgcolor | Background color for table headings in Infobox station |
Embedding other infoboxes
The embedded= parameter can be used to embed another infobox with such capability like {{designation list}} and {{infobox NRHP}}.

Microformat
The HTML mark up produced by this template includes an hCard microformat, which makes the place-name and location parsable by computers, either acting automatically to catalogue articles across Wikipedia, or via a browser tool operated by a person, to (for example) add the subject to an address book. Within the hCard is a Geo microformat, which additionally makes the coordinates (latitude & longitude) parsable, so that they can be, say, looked up on a map, or downloaded to a GPS unit. For more information about the use of microformats on Wikipedia, please see the microformat project.
Sub-templates
If the place or venue has an "established", "founded", "opened" or similar date, use {{start date}} unless the date is before 1583 CE.
If it has a URL, use {{URL}}.
Please do not remove instances of these sub-templates.
Classes
hCard uses HTML classes including:
- adr
- agent
- category
- county-name
- extended-address
- fn
- label
- locality
- nickname
- note
- org
- region
- street-address
- uid
- url
- vcard
Geo is produced by calling {{coord}}, and uses HTML classes:
- geo
- latitude
- longitude
Please do not rename or remove these classes nor collapse nested elements which use them.
Precision
When giving coordinates, please use an appropriate level of precision. Do not use {{coord}}'s |name= parameter.
