These are the available ___location maps for the USA on the English Wikipedia. Only the USA2USA has a relief map. The unused sandbox template is the only one that supports positions in all 50 US states, instead of only the continental 48. Which one do you prefer as the standard ___location map (and which should thus reside here at [[Template:Location map USA]])?

:

:For clarity, USA supports a relief map with the <code>|relief=1</code> parameter. If you would like to display locations in all 50 states you could use USA/sandbox, which is accurate, but less detailed and has no relief map; for almost every purpose, however, the standard USA ___location map template is better.
