This template is used for referencing maps published by Google, Inc. through their Google Maps service.

This template is based on {{Cite map}} so it falls into the Citation Style 1 (CS1) series of templates, although it can be set to emulate CS2 style.

Note that unlike paper maps, Google offers dynamic sizing at variable scales. Major citation style guides omit a map scale in that situation so this template does not render any scale output.

Usage

{{Google maps|url= |title= |accessdate=3 November 2024}}

Parameters

  • url – the URL for the map in question
  • title – a "subtitle" for the map. The link text will appear as "<title>" if "title" is used; otherwise, it will be the page name.
  • accessdate – the full retrieval date.
  • link – set to "no" to unlink the publisher.
  • mode – set to "cs2" to use Citation Style 2 output

Examples

Normal usage with automatic inclusion of page title (i.e. "Cite Google Maps", which is taken from the template's full page title "Template:Cite Google Maps/doc"):

  • {{Google maps|url=http://maps.google.com/maps?hl=en&q=from:+E%20Market%20St/RT-308%20@41.926860,%20-73.912580+to:+RT-308%20@41.970313,%20-73.821096|accessdate=3 November 2024}}

generates this:

  • "Cite Google Maps" (Map). Google Maps. Retrieved 3 November 2024.

Using the optional title parameter:

  • {{Google maps|url=http://maps.google.com/maps?hl=en&q=from:+E%20Market%20St/RT-308%20@41.926860,%20-73.912580+to:+RT-308%20@41.970313,%20-73.821096 | title = Driving directions to RT-308|accessdate=3 November 2024 }}

generates this:
