Template:Coord-doc-dim

An alternative to scale:, dim: defines the diameter of a circle in meters centered on the coordinate. The Geo Hack mapping tool selects map scales best able to display the circle. dim: is particularly useful when geo-coding linear features and areas. Examples: Mill Ends Park → dim=0.61 (the smallest park in the world), Ohio → dim=400000, Dresden → dim=20000, Statue of Liberty → dim=100. dim: will override scale: when both are set.
