Sets the type of this location, which will be used for the reverse mapping of the points. Type will set default map scale. If the default map scale is not appropriate, consider adding a scale:N parameter.

It is also used to select marker icons for the WikiMiniAtlas.

Types are:

adm2nd Administrative unit of country, 2nd level, see table, e.g. County (United States) 1:300,000

Sample:

  • {{coord|46|43|N|7|58|E|type:mountain}} gives Lua error: callParserFunction: function "#coordinates" was not found.
