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 South Yelbeni.
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.

The land here breathes a quiet, dusty scent of dry earth and sun-baked scrub, punctuated by the hardy resilience of wheatbelt trees. Fields of ripening grain, a sea of gold and straw, roll towards horizons that seem to melt into the shimmering heat, their edges softened by the haze of distance. The character of South Yelbeni is etched into the stoic, weathered fences that mark out properties, and the occasional solitary farmhouse, a small sentinel against the vastness. Even the air feels older, carrying the whisper of winds that have swept across these plains for millennia, shaping the land and its inhabitants with a patient, unhurried hand.
The history of South Yelbeni is intrinsically tied to the cultivation of its soil, a narrative of toil and perseverance written in the golden yields of its farms. For generations, this patch of Western Australia has sustained its people through the labour of growing wheat and barley, the grain silos standing as silent, monumental testaments to this enduring economy. The land itself, once home to Indigenous peoples whose connection ran deep, now echoes with the rumble of tractors and the ceaseless murmur of agricultural machinery. Life in South Yelbeni unfolds at a pace dictated by the seasons, a steady rhythm that has weathered boom and bust, and continues to define the enduring spirit of this place.

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 South Yelbeni is identified even where the name is shared across multiple localities.
