Data for Malorn Sector?

Does anyone know (of course someone does :nonono:) where exactly the data for Malorn Sector at Travellermap.com comes from?
I didn't see it listed in the data sources section on the information page.
 
If you center that sector on the map, you'll see the "credits" on the lower left of the screen, with a link to the original data source (if online)

So apparently I got it from CORE, now hosted hereabouts: http://www.ocean-of-storms.com/core/astrogat/grmap.htm

Alas, I don't have more details than that. When I first put travellermap.com up I was aiming for quantity rather than quality of the data. I've been gradually going back and validating sources where possible, trying to establish a "chain of evidence" back as far as possible.

Corrections appreciated! I may not see things posted here (tho I try), so please consider posting a comment at http://travellermap.blogspot.com/ or contacting me via email.
 
Thanks Guys!

What got me started on this is that I am slowly but surely doing up Amderstun Sector to Rimward. By hand at that, I never have cared for the results of the Generators.
 
The Traveller Map has now been updated with the corrected data for Malorn.

Good luck with Amderstun. Looking forward to see the result.

Power to you, I share your disdain for solely computer generated sectors - though computer with some human input can sometimes be tolerated. However, and Malorn seems to be a case of this - sometimes all you get is drek. Look at Malorn Subsector, most probably home of the Malorn Union - most systems pre-stellar, with two C-class ports the maximum rates starports, save for three A-ports, one with 9 people and tech E, another with 9 people and tech 9, and one with 1000 people and tech 8.
