| 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In particular, if you've been using the GeoScience NATMAP Raster 250K product, you will definitely want to upgrade your outdated maps to EOTopo200K and enjoy the fresh new look. GeoScience are not releasing further updates and 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. | Business Membership - 6 Month Trial

| ExplorOz Business Membership has always been a great value promotional opportunity for companies in the self-drive travel industry, with a cost of only $200 for 12 Months.
However, we understand that 12 Months can be a long time to commit, particularly if you are new to online advertising, therefore we have just introduced a 6 Month Trial option for all new Business Members.
This coincides with the release of the ExplorOz 2014 Advertising Kit, to receive your copy of this kit, email your request to: info@exploroz.com.
