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.

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 Couradda.
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.

Couradda rests in a landscape that breathes with the wide, open sky of northern New South Wales. It lies 147.1 km north-west of Tamworth, NSW (from Tamworth, NSW: bearing 322°T), and is situated 27.7 km north-east of Narrabri. The land here rolls gently, a soft undulation of ochre earth and scattered timber, where the dominant hues shift from the dusty greens of drought-hardy shrubs to the pale gold of sun-bleached grass depending on the season. The air, especially in the late afternoon, carries a dry warmth, a subtle scent of eucalyptus and the distant promise of rain, and the light takes on a honeyed quality, slanting across the plains to paint long shadows from every fence post and solitary gum tree. The character of Couradda is one of quiet resilience, a place where the land dictates the pace, and the horizon stretches out, seemingly without end, inviting contemplation.
The story of Couradda is intrinsically linked to the pastoral heritage of this region, with sheep and cattle grazing having long shaped its economy and the very shape of its surrounding country. Early settlers, drawn by the promise of fertile plains, established properties that have been passed down through generations, their weathered homesteads standing as quiet witnesses to the passage of time. The local economy, though perhaps not bustling, is sustained by the steady rhythm of agriculture, a dependable cycle of planting and harvest that underpins the community. While Couradda might not boast grand landmarks, its distinctive character lies in its unassuming simplicity, its ability to endure, and the enduring connection its people feel to the vast, sun-drenched country that surrounds them.

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 Couradda is identified even where the name is shared across multiple localities.
