If you switch to the 2015 world atlas channel, it give a Bortle Estimate.
As I mentioned, Bortle rating is a mix of LP and transparency and varies a lot. Any atlas or survey value is just one point at one time.
When I was in WA in 2023, I noted that the dark skies during my visit were not low Bortle skies and I attributed it to poor transparency from lots of dust suspended in the air.
