Lines of latitude and longitude enable any point on the world to be pinpointed. On such a large continent as Australia, the coordinates depend on what is considered the geographic centre (unless a particular city is named). According to the internet, the coordinates are 25.2744° S, 133.7751° E
The geographical centre is at 25º36'36."4S and 134º21'17."3E, which is approximately 200km south of Alice Springs.
Finding coordinates on an Australian map is easier if the lines of latitude and longitude are printed on the map, or is marked round the map's border.
First, look on the map to find the line of latitude that the coordinates reference. If the exact line of latitude isn't shown on the map, estimate it by looking at the lines that are available. Then look on the map to find the longitude line that the coordinates reference. Once you have found the two lines, follow them both towards the point where they intersect. That is the location the coordinates reference.
Use the latitude and longitude lines on the map along with the coordinates. Find where the two coordinates meet and that will be the location you are looking for.
You can find physical maps of Australia at bookstores, map stores, or online retailers. You can also check with local libraries or educational institutions for physical maps of Australia.
Every point on Earth has a different set of geographic coordinates. If your maps have latitude and longitude grids printed on them, then you can estimate the coordinates of any place you see on the map, or find a place if you have its coordinates.
It can be easy to use latitude and longitude to find cities on a map if you are familiar with geographic coordinates. However, if you are not accustomed to using latitude and longitude, it may take some time to get used to. Practice and familiarity with the coordinates will make it easier over time.

The Coral Sea, off Australia's northeastern coast.
No you can' t because it only shows the country or continent that is on Australia. It shows the capital but does NOT show the exact location from that continent or country. ;);)
New Zealand is southeast of Australia on the map. Find Australia and you will find New Zealand.

I'm Canadian but I'm pretty sure that almost anyone can find Australia on a map...
You cant but, you can look at a map to estimate the coordinates!
You would use coordinates, such as latitude and longitude, to find the absolute location of a place on a map. These coordinates provide a precise and fixed point on the Earth's surface.
