The region: parameter specifies the political region for terrestrial coordinates. It is used to select appropriate map resources. If no region: parameter is provided, GeoHack attempts to determine the region from the coordinates.
The region should be supplied as either a two character ISO 3166-1 alpha-2 country code or an ISO 3166-2 region code.
Examples of ISO 3166-1 alpha-2 codes:
2;width:50%
Examples of ISO 3166-2 codes:
- NO-03 Oslo, Norway
- DE-TH Thuringia
- US-NY New York state
In addition, two Wiki assigned code elements can be used with {{coord}}:
- XZ for objects in or above international waters (similar to UN/LOCODE).
- ZZ for use in examples.
