Code to convert information about physical size of objects into parameters for geohack or mapframes.

The following parameters describe the physical object size:
{{div col|colwidth=15em}}
* length_km
* length_mi
* width_km
* width_mi
* area_km2
* area_mi2
* area_ha
* area_acre
{{div col end}}
When producing scale or zoom, module can use size of object on screen specified via {{para|viewport_cm}} or {{para|viewport_px}}. Defaults to 10cm, to match geohack.

In addition, the module can accept and convert between geohack parameters:
* dim
* scale
* type (e.g., "mountain" or "city")
* population (for type="city" only)

== Usage ==
;<code><nowiki>{{</nowiki>#invoke:Infobox dim|dim<nowiki>}}</nowiki></code>:
Generates dim string (e.g, "24km") suitable for geohack link
;<code><nowiki>{{</nowiki>#invoke:Infobox dim|scale<nowiki>}}</nowiki></code>:
Generates scale (e.g, 100000) suitable for geohack link
;<code><nowiki>{{</nowiki>#invoke:Infobox dim|zoom<nowiki>}}</nowiki></code>:
Generates Open Street Map zoom level (e.g, 12) suitable for use in mapframes
