Summary

Map of the <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Neckar" class="extiw" title="en:Neckar">Neckar</a> watershed in southwest <a href="//commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Germany" class="mw-redirect" title="Germany">Germany</a>, showing largest cities and river names. Large city names (6) have been re-labeled with font-face Arial or Arial Narrow, as font-size 9 or 10; the region names are labeled in italic font. Germany contains over 3,500 cities/towns, but they are evenly dispersed around the main towns.

This map has locator code "GermanyNeckar" for use in map-locator templates, such as English Wiki <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Template:Location_map_GermanyNeckar" class="extiw" title="en:Template:Location map GermanyNeckar">Template:Location_map_GermanyNeckar</a> & <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Template:Location_map_skew" class="extiw" title="en:Template:Location map skew">Template:Location_map_skew</a> (which skews northern coordinates for multiple map markers / labels, skew=0.89).

The latitude/longitude coordinates are NOT <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/equirectangular" class="extiw" title="en:equirectangular">equirectangular</a>, with longitudes converging from south to north by 95% closer: the longitudes at bottom range from 8-9.6 degrees, but at top, range 7.95-9.66 degrees apart. The latitude is calibrated for exactly 48-49.7 degrees N.

The original map image has a GFDL license; the extensions are as follows:

  • narrowed 144px as 370px to magnify 28%; some river names have been added;
  • bolded names of largest towns to be readable as 220px thumbnail size;
  • added town/river names: Neckar, Rhine, etc.
