Hurrah! It’s finally live for you to check out http://www.australianwineregions.com/

This site, using Google Maps, provides a map for each key Aussie wine region, and pin points selected wineries on the map. This is a personal project that i’ve been working on for a few months.

Some of the features include:
- you can ‘click and drag’ the maps around
- zoom in and out
- get a map, satellite image of a region or both
- generate a printer friendly version
- submit your favourite winery to the site (no doubt it’s probably not there yet. There’s only about 150 in there at the mo’)
- You can create a link directly from your site to any map on ours. So that when you click on it, the region map will load with your winery details showing (see images below).
- Is the winery entry just plain wrong? Well request an update. Easy!

Google’s map service have only been going in Oz since April last year. So satellite imagery is at best patchy in some areas, excellent in others [especially the Barossa (South Australia) and Denmark (Western Australia) regions]. But it can only get better.

So if you’re into wine, operate a winery or tourism board web site, use it to your heart’s content!

Here are a few satellite images generated from the site:
