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. For example:

In addition, two user-assigned code elements can be used with {{coord}}:

  • XZ for objects in/above international waters (similar to UN/LOCODE)
  • ZZ for use in samples
