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 Caulfield East.
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.

It lies 2.4 km west of Malvern East, VIC (from Malvern East, VIC: bearing 261°T), and is situated 8.1 km south-east of Melbourne. Mature trees, their branches reaching like benevolent arms, cast dappled shade across well-tended lawns, creating a sense of established calm. The architecture here is a blend of eras, from solid Federation homes with their wide verandahs to mid-century brick bungalows and more contemporary designs, each contributing to the neighbourhood's quiet character. Even the air seems to carry a softer quality, a hushed stillness punctuated by the distant hum of traffic and the occasional chirping of native birds, a gentle reminder of the natural world persisting within the urban fabric.
This locality, Caulfield East, carries the echoes of Melbourne's post-war expansion, a period that shaped its residential character and established its connection to the broader metropolitan area. While no longer a site of significant agricultural endeavour, its history is rooted in the fertile plains that once supported market gardens, a heritage hinted at in the occasional sprawling block that still retains a sense of generous space. The local economy is now largely driven by its proximity to commercial centres and its role as a residential hub, a place where families and professionals find their footing. Institutions like Caulfield Grammar School, a prominent educational establishment, contribute to the area's distinct identity, drawing a diverse community and influencing the daily rhythm of life, a constant flow of students and families navigating its well-trodden paths.

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 Caulfield East is identified even where the name is shared across multiple localities.
