Do you need Live or Offline?
Live
Live maps are the most up-to-date version, but you need network reception, and they will use mobile data. They also don’t have contour lines, but apart from that are the same as offline maps. There are also some mobile apps which allow this data to be cached or downloaded for offline use.
You can use our web-app (basically a web-page) or any one of more than a dozen apps which support our map tiles. See below for more info.
Offline (Downloaded)
Downloading the maps to your device lets you run without phone reception, without data usage (even in airplane mode) or use a device which isn’t connected to the internet. Apps which do this include OziExplorer and Avenza.
Getlost Maps Live (including adding to OSMAnd)
Getlost Maps Live has more features all the time as we are actively working on it. It is also used for testing new map features so it’s the first place to see them.
How do I download offline maps?

Huts and Ruins
We’ve created our own huts and ruins datasets and are making them freely available so you can upload them into your GPS unit. There simply isn’t anything else available like this for Australian huts.
Huts confirmed as being there using satellite imagery are listed with names and other information where known, those with locations / status which can’t be confirmed are listed as “approx”. Never rely on a hut being where you think it is – they fall down, they burn down, they might not be there – always take a tent – huts are for emergency shelter only.

OziExplorer Screens and Other Stuff
We use non-standard OziExplorer screen configurations, which you’re welcome to download and use as well if you want. DOWNLOAD THEM HERE or try those made by Ian Davidson here.
Anything else we didn’t have a specific spot for is also available HERE.

You are doing a fantastic job! These maps are excellent. Please try to stay active.
Its a pity you dont have more voluntary support, you deserve it.
Mate. Well done and thanks! Fantastic effort.
Wish you could do this for NSW, actually ALL of Aussie!
Any chance you would add geological maps?
Buggered if I can find King Island.
Great effort though!!
It’s in SPECIAL MAPS.. 🙂
Great maps mate, many thanks for your time and effort. Just donated through Paypal.
Hi,
Is there any way to preview map tiles to determine their location?
For example, I know where Lawn Hill Gorge is in relation to Qld, but where is Yetman and how will I know whether to download it or not. I’d rather not download blind?
Thank you
Definitely use live.getlost.com.au, then switch on the layer telling you the name of the map you want for that spot. 😉
By the way, the King Island map stands out as the best!
Very impressed with the live maps. Just got it running on Motion-X and I’ll be trying it this weekend out on the motorbike.
Love ya work. Any chance of doing Cape York 25k?
These look Great, Terrific work!
I am just downloading all the SA Offline maps for Avenza.
Is there any kind of key to help me work out which map is best for an area without hunting through each one? Have I missed it somewhere?
Sorry!
I found your Key map and have used it to find the maps I need.

Thanks for the new version. Pity the resolution is poorer than earlier versions, worse than v14 when it started to deteriorate. The text is pixelated, to be honest it looks ugly. This might be done to make the map sizes manageable, but for me resolution is the critical factor, size is unimportant. Please dont see this as a complaint, rather a suggestion for future releases. I appreciate that it is free and willing to help and donate more if the maps can be improved.
Thanks guys, really appreciate all your work here. I’m an OziExplorer on Android user – which these work brilliantly on. Will you also be producing a single (or a small number of) map(s) for non-Victorian states (similar to the East/West version of Victoria)?
