The MultiMaps extension is a powerful tool that can be used on any wiki page to highlight locations on the OGF map, tell a story through maps, or to display collaborative efforts. This page will highlight some of the ways the MultiMaps extension can be used.

About Extension:MultiMaps

The MultiMaps extension for wiki markup allows displaying dynamic maps on pages within the OGF wiki. It is a simple code structure that allows the user to define the size of the map, its level of zoom, and place dynamic elements like lines and markers. The original wiki documentation can be found on MediaWiki.

Map basics

A basic map can be placed by including the initial code like a template, and 6 basic attributes. A sample code might look like this: {{#multimaps: | center = 45.0,28.8 | width = 450px | height = 575px | zoom = 7 | maxzoom = 19 | minzoom = 1 }}. The following table shows you how each of these properties of the code breaks down. The sample listed is shown in the table.
