About Queensland Maps

Queensland is Australia's second-largest state by area — 1.85 million square kilometres covering everything from tropical rainforest and coral reef to red-dirt outback and alpine highlands. That diversity of terrain, climate and travel demand makes Queensland one of the most map-intensive destinations in the country. Whether you're planning a Cape York traverse, mapping a sales territory across the south-east, sailing the Whitsundays, or hanging a wall map of your home state, getting the right map matters.

Mapworld stocks Queensland maps from every major Australian publisher — Hema, UBD-Gregory's, Carto Graphics, Westprint, Spatial Vision and the Queensland government's QTopo and Department of Resources mapping series — plus our own custom-printed regional and electoral maps. We carry current editions only and rotate stock as new editions print.

Queensland Map Types Explained

Touring & Wall Maps

For road-tripping, sales planning, classroom display, or wall décor. Queensland touring maps come folded (1:1.4 million to 1:2 million scale) for glove-box use, or laminated as wall maps in standard (700×1000mm), Supermap (1000×1430mm) and Megamap formats. Hema's Queensland State Map is the standard reference for touring; the Hema Queensland Supermap is the most popular wall-map format.

4WD & Outback Maps

Hema dominates this category with regional 4WD-focused maps for Cape York, the Channel Country, Outback Queensland, and the Western Outback. The Cape York Atlas & Guide is the definitive trip-planning resource for that journey. For coastal 4WD, Fraser Island (K'gari) and the Sunshine Coast hinterland have dedicated regional maps.

Topographic Maps

Queensland's topographic mapping is published by the Department of Resources at 1:25k, 1:50k and 1:100k scales — the standard for bushwalking, orienteering, emergency services and detailed terrain navigation. Mapworld stocks the full QTopo printed range plus paper, waterproof Tyvek and laminated formats. For broader-scale topographic coverage, the Geoscience Australia 1:250k AUSTopo series covers the whole state.

Postcode & LGA Maps

Postcode and Local Government Area wall maps are essential tools for real estate agents, sales teams, marketing analysts and government planners. Mapworld carries Brisbane, Gold Coast, Sunshine Coast, Cairns and full-state Queensland postcode maps in laminated wall format, plus dedicated LGA wall maps showing every council boundary across Queensland.

Marine & Nautical Charts

Queensland's coast is covered by official AUS-numbered Australian Hydrographic Service charts plus state Department of Agriculture and Fisheries inshore boating charts. Standout sheets: AUS 252 Whitsunday Group, AUS 236 Moreton Bay, AUS 246 Hervey Bay. All charts are corrected to the latest Notices to Mariners at time of dispatch.
