This template is a Citation Style 1 specific-source template based on {{Cite map}}. For centralised Citation Style 1 discussions, see Help talk:Citation Style 1. |
This template is used for referencing maps published by Google LLC through their Google Maps service.
The template accepts all parameters that {{cite map}} does, unless |SV=yes
, in which case it accepts all parameters that {{cite web}} does. This template can also be set to emulate Citation Style 2 (CS2) style, via |mode=cs2
.
Note that unlike paper maps, Google offers dynamic sizing at variable scales. Major citation style guides omit a map scale in that situation so this template does not render any scale output.
