ExplorOz ImageMember Profile & Rig Pics - Members have the opportunity to post photos of, and information about, their rig in "My Profile". That information can become useful if you post a question on the Forum about road conditions, trip planning, or a specific issue with your rig – people answering your query can easily see what type of vehicle, van camper trailer etc that you have, leading to better informed and more useful answers. Why not take a moment this week to check your Profile and consider adding something interesting about yourself and your rig.
Wildflower Image

Time to celebrate! The wildflower section on ExplorOz was launched in February this year. Five months on and about 400 wildflowers have been posted by a growing band of avid wildflower and photography enthusiasts. Several wildflowers have attracted more than 1000 views.

Here's some things you might not know...

  • you can search the wildflowers by putting a word (eg red, or sand, or the name of a national park) into the search box and get a list of every wildflower post that includes that word.
  • you can see the wildflowers listed in their family groups eg all the pea flowers are in the Fabaceae family, all the daisies are in the Asteraceae family. 
  • You don’t have to be an expert to contribute – if you have a great wildflower photo but can’t identify it, post it up and others will do their best to find a name for it.

How to find it ... fast!

Did you know there is an easy way to quickly search for ALL PRODUCTS stocked in the ExplorOz Shop that cover a particular location? From the Shop Home Page, simply use the second search box to search for Places. As you type for a track, or place by name, a drop down list will appear containing all matching Places in our database. The example below shows how you could search our shop for products (ie. maps/books/atlases) covering Pemberton:

From the given list of Places, you pick one. You'll then see a list of products from our shop that the system can best match to that Place.

Once you've selected a product to view, you can also verify the exact coverage parameters of the map/book by going into the “Coverage” section of the product description. This section will also offer other similar items enabling you to compare with other maps/books.
