Discovered an error within Community Maps - AUSTRALIA TOPO MAPS in AQ full version. The following maps give the error code: "(bad code: 410 - Gone)" - Topo Map, Topo 250k (2008), Bathymetry Imagery and Surface Hydrology Layer. The Surface Geology Layer displays okay. Also sent an error report within the app.

Hi and thanks for the report,
The topo map has been removed from the Australian agency map server, do you know if this map is still available online somewhere?

The url below appears to contain just two layers - "Australian Topography" and "Australian Topographic 250k Mosaic"
http://maps.ga.gov.au/interactive-maps/ ... topography

It seems Geoscience Australia has moved its mapping services to a new location:
https://portal.ga.gov.au/restore/
....unfortunately any referenced map's address (and its layers) is tagged with a UID, which I imagine could be a problem.

Probably the only way to get high resolution maps is to access them through each state's mapping services. If I get time, I'll take a look at some of these and provide some info for you. I know that the states of Victoria and NSW have accessible 1:25k maps available. Fortunately you have Tasmania covered!

Hi again,
I've fixed the topo, 250k, hillshade and geology maps of Australia.
I also attach all the map layers provided by the agency, some of them may be of interest.

Thanks Psyberia-Support for fixing those maps. Those additional Aus. layers are brilliant!...especially the submarine canyons - just the thing I need to look out for when next I go hitch a ride in a submarine. :lol:

The following resources may be better for high resolution navigation purposes:
Australia

NSW (state)
