Default Map of walls from pre Ming dynasties?

Are there any maps available that will detail the locations and names of all non Ming dynasty wall sections? Much like the fantastic GreatWallForum maps for Google Earth? It would be very interesting especially to see just how much of the older walls still remain, especially within the Beijing area (where I live). I know there may be Qi wall remains in Simatai and Gubeikou, but is there much else and from other dynasties/periods too? I would love to be able to see and photograph as much as I can.

I propose you apply to be added to the Approved Users Forum.
Yes, we have a lot of information about the Walls from Zhao, Qin, Han, Jin, Zhongshan, Qi, Chu and others. And we have a map too ;-).
This summer I visited the walls of Zhao, Qin, Han and Jin in Inner Mongolia and the Walls of Ming and Bei Qi at Gubeikou.

We have so much more information and need all help to improve our maps.

Approved users forum? What is this and how do I get added.

I just saw all your Inner Mongolia shots, you have taken some amazing shots. I am especially interested in seeing the sections of Qin wall that you photographed. i was thinking of planning a lil trip to both inner and outer Mongolia next spring, I think it will be a definite yes now.
