Crossing Interstellar Distances

See "Planning And Writing The Technic History," here.

I think that someone discussing future histories wrote that one of the questions to be asked and answered is: how long does it take to travel from Earth to any given extra-solar planet?

In Dominic Flandry's super-fast Hooligan:

to Vixen, thirteen standard days;
to Diomedes, seventeen standard days;
from Diomedes to Dennitza, a Terran month.

We are also given some idea of where interstellar realms and Imperial sectors are in relation to each other.

From all such information in the Technic History, someone might be able to reconstruct Anderson's galactic maps?
