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 Viveash, Western Australia, 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 Viveash.
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.

Viveash rests on the eastern fringe of the Swan River's embrace, a place where the flat, alluvial plains begin their slow, patient climb towards the Darling Scarp. It lies 8.4 km east of Morley, WA (from Morley, WA: bearing 80°T), and is situated 12.4 km south-south-east of Ellenbrook. The air here carries the faint, dry scent of eucalyptus and the deeper, richer perfume of the soil, especially after a summer rain. Patches of remnant bushland, a tangled tapestry of wattles and paperbark, cling to the edges of residential streets, offering a sanctuary for the kookaburras and the flash of a rainbow lorikeet. The light at dusk, a pale gold that softens the edges of everything, often catches the quiet hum of sprinklers on manicured lawns, a subtle counterpoint to the wilder scrub beyond.
The history of Viveash is deeply entwined with the fertile lands of the Swan Valley, a region long recognised for its agricultural bounty. Early settlers, drawn by the promise of rich soil and reliable water from the river, established farms and orchards, laying the foundation for the area's enduring connection to the land. While the character of Viveash has shifted over the decades, evolving from predominantly rural holdings to a more suburban setting, the echoes of its agricultural past persist in the names of streets and the occasional lingering vineyard. The local economy, once heavily reliant on produce grown within its boundaries, now draws strength from its proximity to Perth's wider metropolitan area, while still cherishing its unique identity as a gateway to the broader Swan Region.

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 Viveash is identified even where the name is shared across multiple localities.
