POI stands for point of interest. In a wiki article it denotes some geographic location like a city, port or an anchorage. Such a POI must have a name and a type, also it should have some geographic coordinates and a description text.

There are two styles in using this template.

Usage


Template:Coord style
{{poi |DD|M.M|N|DDD|M.M|E|
| type=
| name=
| text=
}}

Coordinates in this format are quite useful then Template:Coord locations are converted into Template:Poi and similar templates.

In this case the coordinates of a location are represented by 6 positional parameters. The first 3 parameters are: round number degrees of latitude, minutes of latitude, N or S for hemisphere. The further 3 parameters are the similar to the first group, but they denote the longitude part of a coordinate.

NB: Mind a vertical bar "|" at the end of coordinate parameters.

Lat, Lon style
{{poi | lat= | lon=
| type=
| name=
| text=
}}

Here the coordinates are defined by lat and lon parameters represented in decimal degrees (negative values denote either S or W hemispheres).

Parameters

A value of the type parameter should be one of: waypoint, berth, anchorage, buoy (for mooring buoy fields), officials, provisioning (for grocery stores, markets and supermarkets), facilities, service, chandler (for yacht supplies stores), catering (for restaurants, caffes, eateries, etc.) accomodation, beach, other.

Examples


Template:Coord style:

{{poi |41|14.633|N|009|08.904|E|
| type= anchorage
| name= Cala Spinosa
| text= A narrow bay W of Baia di Santa Reparata, good holding on sandy patches.
}}

Lat, Lon style:

{{poi | lat=41.24875 | lon=9.2117833333333
| type=anchorage
| name=Porto quadro
| text=A smaller bay, closer to Santa Teresa Gallura, but unsuitable with W - NW winds. There is an ugly hotel complex on the shore.
}}
