This template, {{coord}}, produces a link to a list of map sources, based on the geographical coordinates and other parameters, and provides a standardized notation for the coordinates.
The template is for geographical latitude and longitude coordinates on Earth, expressed in either decimal notation, or degrees/minutes/seconds parameters of arbitrary precision.
It links to Template:Coor URL, then displays the WGS84 coordinate (latitude;longitude) in appropriate, human-readable degree/minutes/seconds precision, and outputs the computer-readable Geo microformat.
This single template supercedes {{coor d}}, {{coor dm}}, and {{coor dms}}.
See also Wikipedia:WikiProject Geographical coordinates and Wikipedia:Manual of Style (dates and numbers)#Geographical coordinates.
Usage
{{coord|latitude|longitude}}
{{coord|dd|N/S|dd|E/W}}
{{coord|dd|mm|N/S|dd|mm|E/W}}
{{coord|dd|mm|ss|N/S|dd|mm|ss|E/W}}
