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 North Woodburn.
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.

North Woodburn lies cradled by the gentle, fertile plains that slope towards the Richmond River. It lies 110.1 km south of Robina, QLD (from Robina, QLD: bearing 182°T), and is situated 9.5 km north-west of Evans Head. Here, the air carries the humid sweetness of sugarcane fields ripening under the Australian sun, and the occasional scent of woodsmoke from homestead chimneys. The landscape is a soft mosaic of emerald green pastures, punctuated by stands of mature gum trees that reach skyward, their rough bark a testament to years of wind and rain. The land itself feels yielding, a rich loam that promises abundance to those who work it, and the distant murmur of the river is a constant, soothing presence. In the late afternoon, the light softens, casting long, warm shadows across the paddocks, painting the world in hues of ochre and gold as the day begins to draw to a close.
The history of North Woodburn is deeply entwined with the bounty of the Richmond River and the fertile soil it irrigates. Early settlers were drawn to its promise, establishing farms that have sustained families for generations, with sugarcane cultivation forming the backbone of the local economy for many years. While the landscape might suggest a sleepy rural existence, there's a quiet industriousness here, a resilience born from the land and the community's enduring spirit. The nearby river, a vital artery for transport and life, has witnessed the ebb and flow of prosperity, and its banks often tell stories of past floods and the tenacious rebuilding that followed. The character of North Woodburn is one of steady, unpretentious living, where neighbours know each other and the seasons dictate the rhythm of daily life, a place where the earth’s gifts are still deeply respected.

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 North Woodburn is identified even where the name is shared across multiple localities.
