Template:Coord/doc

This template, {{coord}}, produces a link to a list of map sources, based on the geographical coordinates and other parameters, and provides a standardized notation for the coordinates.

The template is for geographical latitude and longitude coordinates on Earth, expressed in either decimal notation, or degrees/minutes/seconds parameters of arbitrary precision.

It links to http://stable.toolserver.org/geohack/geohack.php?pagename=Template:Coord/doc&params=, then displays the WGS84 coordinate (latitude;longitude) in appropriate, human-readable degree/minutes/seconds precision, and outputs the computer-readable Geo microformat.

This single template supercedes {{coor d}}, {{coor dm}}, and {{coor dms}}.

{{coord|dd|N/S|dd|E/W}}
