There are plenty of maps of the far side of the moon, simply type "moon map far side" into the web browser of your choice.
But we had to wait until we could get something to orbit the moon to get them, as the Moon always have the same side facing Earth.
The Earth side, we could make maps as soon as we hade decent telescopes.
And of course, you have no way of knowing if they are correct or not.
