All map images are built by running

make gather

and can be found in the res directory.

The world map is shown to consist of (39*4) * (39*4) tiles (as can be seen in the pencil drawing of the map available on the web). The data is stored in DDD1/ddd.mapa (and DDD1/ddd.code) and can be plotted with

./src/worldmap2png.py

The map file contains a 52 x (52*3) data set (52*3 == 39*4). Each entry represents a strip of 3*1 actual tiles (the subtiles).

Most submaps of towns and castles are 35 tiles wide.

./src/map2png.py c64/DDD1/ddd.mapc 35

The druid cottage is 11 tiles wide.
