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 Derri Derra.
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.

Derri Derra unfolds across a landscape of rust-red earth, a country of gentle rises and sweeping plains where the Queensland sun, a benevolent but insistent painter, washes the world in shades of ochre and gold. It lies 146.8 km west of Maryborough, QLD (from Maryborough, QLD: bearing 262°T), and is situated 14.3 km south-south-west of Mundubbera. The air here carries the dry, clean scent of eucalypt and warm dust, a fragrance that clings to everything, from the weathered bark of scattered ironbarks to the faded paint of homesteads. Cattle graze placidly in paddocks defined by shimmering heat haze, their forms distant and softened by the vastness, and the stillness is broken only by the occasional bleating of sheep or the distant drone of a tractor. The sky above is an immense, pale blue canvas, vast and often dotted with the slow, deliberate circling of raptors, a constant reminder of the wildness that still holds sway in this corner of the country.
The history of Derri Derra is etched into the very bones of the land, a narrative of hardy settlers who coaxed sustenance from this often-challenging terrain. Primarily a region shaped by sheep and cattle grazing, the local economy still draws its strength from the pastoral industry, with wool and beef forming the backbone of its prosperity. While not a bustling centre, Derri Derra possesses a quiet resilience, its character forged by generations who understood the rhythms of drought and flood, of good seasons and lean. The nearby Burnett River, a ribbon of life through the drier country, has always been central to this story, its waters sustaining life and commerce for as long as people have called this country home.

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 Derri Derra is identified even where the name is shared across multiple localities.
