ExplorOz has expanded into digital topographic map production. The EOTopo map set is now fully released with a significant number of major improvements to other available Australia-wide topo mapping products. In particular, if you've been using the GeoScience NATMAP Raster 250K product, or derivatives thereof, you will definitely want to upgrade your outdated maps to EOTopo200K and enjoy the fresh new look and extra features. EOTopo also comes with a Lifetime Upgrade option.

In addition to the 200K single whole of Australia map file, 10M, 5M, 2.5M, & 1M scale Australia map files are also included, plus 6 separate map files for each State. For more information see EOTopo.
