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 Mount Abundance, Queensland, Australia. Use the Map and Satellite buttons above to switch between street map and aerial imagery views. Use the + and − buttons to zoom in or out, or scroll your mouse wheel while holding the Control key to zoom. On a touchscreen, use a two-finger pinch gesture to zoom in and out.

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 Mount Abundance.
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.

Mount Abundance rises as a rugged sentinel against the expansive Maranoa plains, its slopes clothed in a mosaic of hardy bushland and scattered grazing properties. It lies 352.9 km west-north-west of Toowoomba City, QLD (from Toowoomba City, QLD: bearing 283°T), and is situated 39.0 km south-west of Roma. The air here, particularly in the late afternoon, carries a dry, earthy scent, tinged with the subtle perfume of eucalyptus, and the light softens to a warm, ochre hue that washes over the undulating terrain. The massif itself, a significant geological feature in this otherwise relatively flat expanse, offers a stark contrast to the surrounding country, its weathered outcrops hinting at ancient forces that shaped the land. From its higher points, the world unfurls in shades of dusty green and pale brown, a panorama that speaks of resilience and enduring natural beauty.
The history of Mount Abundance is intrinsically linked to the pastoral pioneers who first ventured into this country, their sheep and cattle finding sustenance on its slopes and the surrounding grasslands. Today, the local economy remains anchored in agriculture, with the wool and beef industries continuing to be vital, though the shadow of drought is a constant, unspoken presence. The nearby township of Roma, a hub for the region, draws upon Mount Abundance for its scenic outlook and the sense of permanence it lends to the landscape. This is a place where the vastness of the land imbues life with a particular rhythm, one dictated by the seasons and the enduring spirit of those who call this country home.

These are among the most commonly searched location details for any Australian city, town or locality.
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 Mount Abundance is identified even where the name is shared across multiple localities.
