I am setting this up to record activities of Yutu 2, but it looks as if this will be difficult unless we start to see more data releases. As soon as LRO images the lander (and the image is released) I can put a rough background on the map. When descent images of the actual site are released thay can be improved on. Until then this will be very simple.
Let me know if you see any signs of maps or feature names, including in the background of a TV broadcast or on a forum. Meanwhile, a first contribution. So simple it's almost not necessary, but you have to start somewhere. So rough I am not including a scale yet. I welcome anyone else's maps as well.

The PCAM stereo clusters of images from Yutu-2 allow to generate 3d models of the path on almost a mm resolution. Its interesting to understand the craters patterns on the path.
The smallest craters are within 20 cm of diameters and they exist all over the soil, like a pattern over it. Its interesting to see how the craters overlap beetween each other. They didn't choose a path without craters, but which path has the smallest craters. Data working with from moon.bao.ac.cn, PCAM images from jan19 to mar20. I haven't seen any PCAM batch of images after this date, if anyone has that i would apreciate the link. -------------------- "The Earth is a very small stage in a vast cosmic arena"
