mapframe – Specify yes or no to show or hide the map, overriding the default. Default: no
The default value of the mapframe parameter is also modified by the internal onByDefault parameter. Default:not specified
mapframe-caption – Caption for the map. Default: blank (or if |mapframe-geomask= is set, "Location in geomask's label")
mapframe-custom – Use a custom map instead of the automatic mapframe. Specify either a {{maplink}} template, or another template that generates a mapframe map, or an image name. If used, the subsequent mapframe parameters will be ignored. Default: not specified
mapframe-id or id or qid – Id (Q-number) of Wikidata item to use. Default:item for current page
mapframe-coordinates or mapframe-coord or coordinates or coord – Coordinates to use, instead of any on Wikidata. Use the {{Coord}} template, e.g. |coord={{Coord|12.34|N|56.78|E}}. Default:coordinates from Wikidata
mapframe-wikidata – Set to yes to show shape/line features from the wikidata item, if any, when |coord= is set. Default:not specified
Customise which features are displayed:
mapframe-shape – Turn off display of shape feature by setting to none. Use an inverse shape (geomask) instead of a regular shape by setting to inverse. Default:not specified
mapframe-point – Turn off display of point feature by setting to none. Force point marker to be displayed by setting to on. Default:not specified
mapframe-line – Turn off display of line feature by setting to none. Default:not specified
mapframe-geomask – Wikidata item to use as a geomask (everything outside the boundary is shaded darker). Can either be a specific Wikidata item (Q-number), or a property that specifies the item to use (e.g. P17 for நாடு (P17), P131 for அமைந்துள்ள நிர்வாக ஆள்புலம் (P131)). Default:not specified
mapframe-switcher – set to auto or geomasks or zooms to enable Template:Switcher-style switching between multiple mapframes. Default:not specified
auto – switch geomasks found in அமைவிடம் (P276) and அமைந்துள்ள நிர்வாக ஆள்புலம் (P131) statements on the page's Wikidata item, searching recursively. E.g. an item's city, that city's state, and that state's country.
geomasks – switch between the geomasks specified as a comma-separated list of Wikidata items (Q-numbers) in the mapframe-geomask parameter
zooms – switch between "zoomed in"/"zoomed midway"/"zoomed out", where "zoomed in" is the default zoom (with a minimum of 3), "zoomed out" is 1, and "zoomed midway" is the average
Other optional parameters:
mapframe-frame-width or mapframe-width – Frame width. Default: 270
mapframe-frame-height or mapframe-height – Frame height. Default: 200
mapframe-shape-fill – Color used to fill shape features. Default: #606060
mapframe-shape-fill-opacity – Opacity level of shape fill, a number between 0 and 1. Default: 0.5
mapframe-stroke-color or mapframe-stroke-colour – Color of line features, and outlines of shape features. Default: #ff0000
mapframe-stroke-width – Width of line features, and outlines of shape features; default is "5". Default: 5
mapframe-marker – Marker symbol to use for coordinates; see mw:Help:Extension:Kartographer/Icons for options. Default:not specified (i.e. blank)
Can also be set to blank to override any default marker symbol
mapframe-marker-color or mapframe-marker-colour – Background color for the marker. Default: #5E74F3
mapframe-geomask-stroke-color or mapframe-geomask-stroke-colour – Color of outline of geomask shape. Default: #555555
mapframe-geomask-stroke-width – Width of outline of geomask shape. Default: 2
mapframe-geomask-fill – Color used to fill outside geomask features. Default: #606060
mapframe-geomask-fill-opacity – Opacity level of fill outside geomask features, a number between 0 and 1. Default: 0.5
mapframe-zoom – Set the zoom level, from "1" (map of earth) to "18" (maximum zoom in), to be used if the zoom level cannot be determined automatically from object length or area. Default: 10
mapframe-length_km or mapframe-length_mi or mapframe-area_km2 or mapframe-area_mi2 – Determine zoom level by passing in object's length (in kilometres or miles) or area (in square kilometres or square miles). Default:not specified
mapframe-frame-coordinates or mapframe-frame-coord – Alternate latitude and longitude coordinates for initial placement of map, using {{coord}}. Default:derived from item coordinates
mapframe-type – Set the type of the object, with the same usage as {{coord}}. Default:not specified
mapframe-population – Set the population, useful with type="city", for {{Infobox dim}}. Default:not specified

The HTML mark up produced by this template includes an hCard microformat, which makes the place-name and location parsable by computers, either acting automatically to catalogue articles across Wikipedia, or via a browser tool operated by a person, to (for example) add the subject to an address book. Within the hCard is a Geo microformat, which additionally makes the coordinates (latitude & longitude) parsable, so that they can be, say, looked up on a map, or downloaded to a GPS unit. For more information about the use of microformats on Wikipedia, please see the microformat project.
