8 Things You Didn’t Know About ExplorOz

1. We Create It All
ExplorOz is the only Australian map publisher that develops its own maps and navigation software and services its customers.

2. Full Coverage of Australia
EOTopo offers a detailed digital map covering the entire country, from city streets to remote 4WD and hiking tracks, with 10m contours and high-resolution topography and fully revised annually.

3. Online & Offline Functionality
The ExplorOz Traveller app seamlessly integrates GPS navigation, tracking, and interactive campsite/POI markers—whether you’re connected or offline.

4. Hands-On Fieldwork
Our team doesn’t just rely on third-party data. We drive and verify roads and tracks ourselves, plus we incorporate driven tracking data from thousands of app users, visualised in a heatmap to verify tracks and roads annually.

5. Crowdsourced Precision
With the ExplorOz Traveller app, users can contribute updates by adding markers or alerting us to changes, ensuring community-driven accuracy.

6. Innovative Map-Making Process
Our maps originate from digital data - we don't use traditional graphic cartography, which offers greater precision and flexibility for digital output on modern devices.

7. Optimised for Every Device
Map output is governed by a bespoke stylesheet, ensuring better functionality and clarity.

8. Small But Mighty
While we may be a small team, our strength comes from being the quiet achiever. We focus on efficiency using the best of our I.T know-how. We strive to deliver outstanding quality, rather than building the biggest brand name. Without unnecessary fanfare, ExplorOz Traveller and EOTopo maps are continually proving to be better than the rest - year after year. ExplorOz has been publishing for 24 years and is owned/operated by the private Australian company I.T. Beyond Pty Ltd - the directors of I.T. Beyond are David & Michelle Martin who just like our customers love exploring Australia.
