A version of the {{Coord}} template where degrees, minutes and seconds are specified.

To add 57°18′22″N 4°27′32″W / 57.30611°N 4.45889°W / 57.30611; -4.45889 to the top of an article, use {{CoordDMS}}, thus:

{{CoordDMS|57|18|22|N|4|27|32|W|display=title}}

No alternate set of parameter are available for this template. See {{CoordDec}} for angles specified as signed decimal degrees, and {{CoordDM}} for when just degrees and minutes are specified.

These coordinates are in degrees, minutes, and seconds of arc.

  • Degrees, minutes and seconds must be separated by a pipe ("|").
  • Map datum must be WGS84 (except for off-earth bodies).
  • Avoid excessive precision (0.0001° is <11 m, 1″ is <31 m).
  • Latitude (N/S) must appear before longitude (E/W).

Optional parameters are all named parameters in the form name=value

  • display
    |display=inline (the default) to display in the body of the article only,
    |display=title to display at the top of the article only, or
    |display=inline,title to display in both places.
  • name
    |name=X to label the place on maps (default is PAGENAME)
  • notes
    |notes= text displayed immediately following the coordinates,
  • format How the coordinates are displayed
    |format=dec decimal format
    |format=dms degrees minutes and seconds format

Optional geodata coordinates parameters, the old geohack format with colon and underscore is not supported

  • dim: approximate size of the object, used to scale the map to fit.
  • scale: Scale of map display for this object, e.g. scale of 300 is 1:300. Gets converted into dim internally using formula dim = scale / 10. If both scale and dim are set, dim has precedence.
  • globe: earth by default, can be one of earth, mercury, venus, moon, mars, phobos, deimos, ganymede, callisto, io, europa, mimas, enceladus, tethys, dione, rhea, titan, hyperion, iapetus, phoebe, miranda, ariel, umbriel, titania, oberon, triton and pluto
  • name: name of this point, up to 255 bytes (UTF-8).
  • region: ISO 3166-1 alpha-2 country code (e.g. US or RU) or an ISO 3166-2 region code (e.g. US-FL or RU-MOS). This parameter is always capitalised internally.
  • type: type of object with these coordinates, can be one of the following: country, satellite, state, adm1st, adm2nd, adm3rd, city, isle, mountain, river, waterbody, event, forest, glacier, airport, railwaystation, edu, pass, camera, landmark.

Thus: {{CoordDM|57|18|22|N|4|27|42|W| dim=30 | region=US-WI | type=event | display=inline,title | name=accident site}}

Use |display=title (or |display=inline,title) once per article, for the subject of the article, where appropriate.

Encodes the latitude and longitude coordinates of a location as degrees, minutes and seconds. Displays the coordinates and provides a link to map of the location.
