You can change between standard map view and satellite map view by clicking the small square in the bottom left-hand corner of the map. You can use the zoom buttons on the lower right side of the map to zoom in or out to street-level detail.
This page also offers TOPO MAPS — Geoscience Australia topographic mapping and the classic NATMAP 1:250 000 sheets — plus a labelled MGA grid overlay, a distance and bearing tool, and a GPS grid-reference readout. See How to Use This Map below. You will find live weather, local and world news further down the page.
This interactive map shows the street layout and satellite imagery for Erindale, Australian Capital Territory, Australia. Use the Map and Satellite buttons above to switch between street map and aerial imagery views.

TOPO MAPS — NEW. Click the green 🔍 Search Maps button below the map to open a second map with a Base map row offering three choices. OSM is the standard OpenStreetMap street map. Topo shows the Geoscience Australia National Base Map — seamless topographic mapping covering the mainland, Tasmania and the external territories. NATMAP 250K shows the classic NATMAP 1:250 000 map sheets, mosaicked nationwide — the printed sheets generations of Australians navigated the outback with. The search box finds any Australian town, suburb or landmark by name, so you are not limited to Erindale.
Reading the map like a paper sheet. Click Grid to overlay the Map Grid of Australia (MGA), labelled along the edges exactly as a printed topographic sheet is — at normal zoom the squares are one kilometre across, so you can read a six-figure grid reference by eye and judge distance directly off the map. Click Measure, then tap two points, to get the distance between them together with the grid bearing in degrees and mils, the true bearing, and the magnetic bearing to set on a compass.
Click 📍 My position to take a single GPS reading from your device. It marks where you are and reports your position as an MGA grid reference as well as plain latitude and longitude — the grid reference being what emergency services and search and rescue work from — with a Copy position button so you can paste it straight into a text message. It takes one reading and stops, rather than tracking continuously, to conserve your battery. Note that map tiles need mobile coverage, but a GPS reading does not — your coordinates stay correct even where the map itself cannot load, which across much of inland Australia is most of the time.
Map search is available for a limited number of queries per session to manage costs. Be specific — search precisely for best results.

Erindale is a locality in the Australian Capital Territory, Australia. It has a population of approximately 1,163. It sits at an elevation of around 133 m above sea level. It lies approximately 953 km west of Canberra. Erindale is located at 34.9278°S, 138.6631°E. It observes Australian Eastern Time (AEST/AEDT).
Erindale occupies a high-set position within the Tuggeranong Valley, where the air thins against the backdrop of the distant Brindabella Ranges. It lies 5.7 km east of Adelaide, SA (from Adelaide, SA: bearing 92°T), and is situated 8.1 km south-east of Prospect. The terrain here is defined by a rhythmic rise and fall of suburban hills, where native eucalypts stand in quiet vigil over the manicured verges and paved arteries of the district. During the winter months, a sharp, crystalline frost settles over the grass before dawn, turning the morning light into a pale, bruised violet that clings to the bark of the local gum trees. Erindale feels anchored by this elevation, a place where the wind carries the dry, resinous scent of the surrounding forest directly into the quiet cul-de-sacs, grounding the modern residential grid in the ancient, unyielding geology of the valley floor.
Erindale serves as a central hub for the southern reaches of the capital, evolving from the broader regional expansion of the mid-twentieth century into a focused nexus of commerce and public amenity. The local economy is defined by its service-oriented character, revolving around the bustling Erindale Centre, where the daily trade of groceries, professional offices, and educational facilities creates a steady, predictable hum of activity. This precinct acts as a social anchor, drawing residents from neighbouring suburbs to its library and sports facilities, which have become the primary gathering points for the district. The architecture reflects the pragmatic optimism of its planning, yet the area retains a distinct personality shaped by its proximity to the Murrumbidgee River corridor, ensuring that even amidst the suburban sprawl, the presence of the natural bushland remains a constant, shaping the way residents move through their day.

Search Maps opens a second, independent map. It searches OpenStreetMap for any Australian town, suburb or landmark by name; offers Geoscience Australia topographic mapping and the classic NATMAP 1:250 000 sheets as base layers; overlays a labelled Map Grid of Australia (MGA) so the map can be read like a printed topographic sheet; measures distance and grid, true and magnetic bearings between any two points; and takes a single GPS fix reporting your position as an MGA grid reference and as latitude and longitude. Map tiles require mobile coverage, but a GPS position does not, so the coordinates remain correct even where the map cannot load.
Location data is drawn from Geoscape Administrative Boundaries (GDA2020) and enriched with GeoNames and Australian Bureau of Statistics data, matched by coordinate proximity — ensuring the correct Erindale is identified even where the name is shared across multiple localities.
