Getting the most from your enquiry

A clear message helps us reply faster and point you to the right material. Because our desk covers several areas, from map resources to field trip notes and podcast episodes, it is worth mentioning which part of the site your question relates to. If you are asking about a particular map, guide or recording, include its title or the page where you found it so we can locate it quickly.

What to include

• Your topic: for example a landform, a region of Queensland, a historical map or a classroom activity.
• Your purpose: personal interest, school or university study, community group planning or research.
• Any time constraints: if you are preparing for a lesson, outing or presentation, let us know when you need the information.

Common questions

Many enquiries are about upcoming outings, reading suggestions and joining in. Before writing, you may find a quick answer on our field trips page, which outlines the kinds of landscapes and themes we explore around South East Queensland, or on the membership page for details of how to get involved. For background reading, the publications section gathers articles and notes on Queensland geography.

Sharing knowledge

We also welcome contributions from readers. If you have spotted an error in a map description, know a local site with an interesting geological or historical story, or would like to suggest a podcast topic, please tell us. Local knowledge from people who walk the creeks, ranges and coastlines of Queensland often adds detail that maps alone cannot show.

We aim to respond to every genuine message, though replies can take a few days during busy periods. Please note that we are an independent geography desk and cannot answer on behalf of government agencies, universities or other societies; for official matters such as land titles, permits or park access, contact the relevant authority directly.
