In my wanderings I&#8217;ve seen references and sometimes formal markers dedicated to the centre of such-and-such city, town or county. I feel like I&#8217;ve been duped. Here we have Australia, an entire continent no less, and a whole bunch of different centres can be calculated. Each one is as legitimate as the other.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Calculating the Centre<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>I always thought the centre was calculated by imagining a cut-out of the area and seeing where it would balance on the tip of a pin. That&#8217;s indeed one common method. Here are some other possibilities:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Draw a box that exactly touches an area&#8217;s extreme latitudes and longitudes, then draw an X between the opposite corners. The middle of the X is the median point. I use a variation of this method when I&#8217;m embedding Google Maps in my web pages (e.g., <a href=\"https:\/\/www.howderfamily.com\/travel\/australia_ferry_map.html\">Ferries of Australia<\/a>). It&#8217;s a simple mathematical calculation that works great for that purpose.<\/li><li>Draw the smallest perfect circle that completely surrounds the object. Use the middle.<\/li><li>Find the place that is the furthest away from any coastline.<\/li><li>Cut-out an image, pick it up at a point along the coastline and hold it vertically. Then use a plumb line to draw a line through the object. Pick another point along the coastline and do it again. Select the spot where the lines converge.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>There are variations and levels of sophistication. Curvature of the earth might be one consideration. Using the high tide mark as the definition of &#8220;coastline&#8221; might be another. Answers may also vary depending on how or whether one incorporates territorial islands.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Thus, any claims to being the centre of <i>anything<\/i> on a landmass would be somewhat bogus, more entertainment than science. Also, let&#8217;s not discount the tourism factor &#8212; anything to bring outside money to an otherwise nondescript location. That&#8217;s OK. Twelve Mile Circle is all about oddities, dubious or otherwise.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Applied to Australia<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Here&#8217;s what will happen if one places the results of various methods upon the Australian landmass.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.ga.gov.au\/scientific-topics\/national-location-information\/dimensions\/centre-of-australia-states-territories\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.howderfamily.com\/graphics\/blog\/centres_of_australia.gif\" alt=\"Possible Centres of Australia via Geoscience Australia\"\/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>All of the points are fairly close to Alice Springs and Uluru (Ayers Rock). Each of these methods produces a result not too dissimilar from the others but there&#8217;s a definite spread. We still have lots of room for debate and disagreement.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.ga.gov.au\/scientific-topics\/national-location-information\/dimensions\/centre-of-australia-states-territories\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Consider going to the Geoscience Australia page<\/a> and see diagrams of various methods as well as centre calculations for each of the states and territories. I&#8217;ve really enjoy that page.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Nonetheless, one of the measurements gets a lot more attention on the ground than the others.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">A Remarkable Marker<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The Royal Geographical Society of Australia undertook the ultimate calculation and marked the most precise spot as part of the 1988 Bicentennial celebration. They used a centre of gravity method consisting of 24,500 coastal points measured at the high water mark. They named their result the Lambert gravitational centre to honour a former director of national mapping.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/iancochrane_2011\/38002425396\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/live.staticflickr.com\/4493\/38002425396_14eddda9f1_b.jpg\" alt=\"Lambert 20171031 NT.

The drive looks a little challenging, but seemingly feasible with any vehicle designed for off road usage. It&#8217;s quite a remarkable monument given its remoteness.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Who would go out of their way to visit such a remote marker of such questionable significance? Well, someone like me naturally. I&#8217;d love to visit that spot if I ever had an opportunity. I imagine a number of you would too. I guess I&#8217;ll put this one on my list of future travel adventures.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Lastly, I&#8217;ll leave you with this groaner from a Geoscience Australia press release (and don&#8217;t say I didn&#8217;t warn you): &#8220;So where is the dead centre [of Australia]? It&#8217;s the local cemetery!&#8221;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Do you notice anything remarkable about this little patch?
