Default How do you edit maps?

I've been looking at the possibility of editing the maps to show the convoy routes at higher magnification - right now you can only see them at the lowest 2 magnifications in the game - it'd be good to have those routes showing when you zoom into 250km scale for more precise navigation plotting.

I'm using Photoshop 7 to look in the RAW images, and of course I get the image with 2 alpha channels (black and pink). How do I go about converting this to show the map as it appears in game?

In the maps folders there are also a stack of RL files - how do these correspond to the different zoom settings and zones? And how do I edit these to show the routes at the higher zoom settings?
