About the map

Australia is the largest country in Oceania and the sixth-largest country in the world. It’s the smallest continent on Earth, but it’s also too large to be an island.

Australia is nicknamed the “Land Down Under” because it’s situated below the equator. It also includes the island state of Tasmania to the southeast, which is the 26th largest island in the world.

Australia is located near Indonesia, East Timor, and Papua New Guinea to the north. Also, several islands are situated to the east such as New Caledonia, Vanuatu, and Fiji Islands. Finally, New Zealand is across from the Tasman Sea to the southeast.

SATELLITE IMAGERY

Australia Satellite Map

These satellite images of Australia show the country from coast to gold coast. The country mostly has a yellow tint in the central region because desert landscapes dominate it. For example, Simpson, Gibson, and Tanami deserts cover the central region. All of Australia’s major cities are rimmed around 25,780 kilometers (16,020 mi) of shoreline.

Otherwise, the Great Artesian Basin is the world’s largest and deepest artesian basin, stretching over 1,700,000 square kilometers. Finally, the Great Barrier Reef in northeast Australia is the world’s largest coral reef system in the world. It consists of 900 islands stretching for over 2,300 kilometers (1,429 mi) and is listed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site.
