Module:Location map/data/Central America is a location map definition used to overlay markers and labels on an equirectangular projection map of Central America. The markers are placed by latitude and longitude coordinates on the default map or a similar map image.

These definitions are used by the following templates when invoked with parameter "Central America":

• {{Location map|Central America |...}}
• {{Location map many|Central America |...}}
• {{Location map+|Central America |...}}
• {{Location map~|Central America |...}}

• name = Central America

  Name used in the default map caption

• image = Outline map of Central America with borders.svg

• image1 = Relief map of Central America.jpg

  An alternative map image, usually a relief map, which can be displayed via the relief or AlternativeMap parameters

• top = 20

  Latitude at top edge of map, in decimal degrees

• bottom = 5

  Latitude at bottom edge of map, in decimal degrees

• left = -95

  Longitude at left edge of map, in decimal degrees

• right = -75
