Free Mapping Tools for Australia
We run free, privacy-first mapping tools at maptools.uk and here at maptools.co for the US. This is the Australian version, built from the ground up using Australian postcode and address data, not a US or UK tool with the labels changed.

LiveWhy Australian postcode data needed its own build
Australian postcodes aren't like US ZIP codes or UK postcodes - one postcode can cover a single suburb or two dozen, and some suburbs have more than one postcode. We built this data directly from the Australian Bureau of Statistics' own postal area boundaries, rather than shipping a rough approximation.
Your data isn't stored on our servers. Postcode lookups run locally in your browser; free-text address search uses OpenStreetMap's Nominatim.
Australian postcode and address data, not a relabelled US or UK tool.
Same model as our US and UK sites - no premium tier, no limits.
