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

Map definition

  • name = USSR
    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
