Full Australia Travel Guide » Australia Interactive Map » Print This Article »
Australia is huge but sparsely populated. By land area it is the world's sixth biggest country, but the population of the entire country is 22,000,000. This means that great distances separate its cities and after leaving one city, you can sometimes expect to travel for hours before finding the next trace of civilization.
Almost all modern Australian maps, including street directories, use the Geocentric Datum of Australia (GDA) as their grid reference, which is for all purposes identical to the WGS84 used by the GPS. You can locate most things on an Australian map or street directory if you just have the "GPS coordinates".
