R.m. Williams Outback Magazine – Issue 163

From bespoke cartography services to satellite imagery, there is no end to the vital work of mapping Australia. We put the history of the mapping of our island continent under the microscope, from the earliest unfinished maps by European explorers to emblematic indigenous artworks as maps of country, to the modern use of drones to map vegetation, water and boundaries – some real and some imagined. Other highlights of this new 163rd issue of OUTBACK include the Great Australian Charity Cattle Drive; chasing Storm Boy on the Coorong, SA; a deep dive into the challenges and opportunities of carbon farming; side-by-side adventures in the Flinders Ranges; and award-winning indigenous artist Gaypalani Wanambi.
