Neither of those functions are used in the default UI, so documentation actually requires some guesswork, at least for GetAreaMapInfo; some of the returns seem to match up with GetMapInfo, but I'm not sure what the first few are for, and yes, I'm lazy, and since I didn't need to use the function myself I just didn't bother trying to figure out what those values are. >_>

If I type /script GetAreaMapInfo() in the chat frame I get this lua error:

Usage: GetAreaMapInfo(areaMapID) returns: mapID, areaID, displayMapID, locLeft, locRight, locTop, locBottom, minLevel, maxLevel, flags

GetWorldMapTransformInfo(transformID) returns: mapID, newMapID, newDungeonID, newAreaID, minX, maxX, minY, maxY, offsetX, offsetY, flags
GetWorldMapTransforms([table]) returns: table
GetContinentMapInfo(continentMapID) returns: mapID, worldMapID, leftBoundary, rightBoundary, topBoundary, bottomBoundary, offsetX, offsetY, scale
GetContinentMaps([table]) returns: table
GetAreaMapInfo(areaMapID) returns: mapID, areaID, displayMapID, locLeft, locRight, locTop, locBottom, minLevel, maxLevel, flags
GetAreaMaps([table]) returns: table
GetDungeonMapInfo(dungeonMapID) returns: floorIndex, minX, maxX, minY, maxY, mapID, parentWorldMapID, flags
GetDungeonMaps([table]) returns: table
GetCurrentMapZone() returns: zoneIndex, locLeft, locTop, locRight, locBottom
GetCurrentMapDungeonLevel() returns: floorIndex, minX, minY, maxX, maxY
GetMapZones(continentIndex) returns: table
GetMapSubzones(mapID) returns: table
GetMapHierarchy() returns: table

Pretty sure this is all already known for a while...

Thanks for sharing ... but "known" for the rest of us means documented in the wiki
