Template:Coord-doc-dim

The dim: parameter defines the diameter of a viewing circle centered on the coordinate. While the default unit of measurement is metres, the km suffix may be appended to indicate kilometres.

GeoHack uses dim: to select a map scale such that the viewing circle appears roughly 10 centimetres (4 in)Template:Convert/track/abbr/Template:Convert/track/disp/Template:Convert/track/adj/ in diameter on a 72 dpi computer monitor. If no dim:, type:, or scale: parameters are provided, GeoHack uses its default viewing circle of 30 kilometres (19 mi)Template:Convert/track/abbr/Template:Convert/track/disp/Template:Convert/track/adj/.
