Well imaged as in seeing surface variations or better.

Im still looking for maps of these objects

Idas moon Dactyl
asteroid Annefrank
comet Tuttle
asteroid Juno
Jupiters moon Metis
Saturns moon Pan

If you're looking for global cylindrical maps, they're unavailable AFAIK. Shape models might be a different story. Several of the worlds you've listed have been too poorly resolved for detailed mapping (Annefranke, Calypso, Dactyl, Metis, Pan) , imaged very noisily (Puck, Larissa, Nereid), or imaged by radar (Geographos, ect.) Steins and Borrelly might be decent candidates though.

This forum has a few gifted contributors working on this subject...Phil Stooke has produced excellent maps of Eros and other irregular bodies, and arguably the best existing maps of Larissa, Proteus, and many other nonspherical worlds. Ted Stryk has managed to tease out subtle details from imagery that was otherwise practically useless. John van Vilet has contributed beautiful shape models and surface textures for Celestia, and probably the best existing cylindrical maps of Phoebe and Hyperion.

Welcome to UMSF, too! Hope this was somewhat helpful.
