1:100,000 Topographic Map

A detailed and authoritative topographic map covering the Strathmore region—an expansive stretch of northern Queensland known for its rugged sandstone ranges, wide grazing lands, creek systems, and remote station infrastructure. This 1:100,000 QTopo sheet delivers essential broad-scale clarity for pastoral management, ecological research, regional planning, emergency operations, and long-distance field navigation.

Produced by the Queensland Department of Resources, the QTopo 7462 (Strathmore) map captures key topographic structure, hydrology networks, vegetation patterns, and land-tenure boundaries across a vast and often isolated landscape. Its wide-area perspective is ideal for understanding terrain context, watershed behaviour, property layout, and route selection over considerable distances.

Whether you are conducting land assessments, coordinating station operations, planning remote travel, or studying regional landforms, this map provides reliable and comprehensive geographic detail.
