Subject: 264 dates for maps

Hi All,
In going over the new RDA field 264, I’m having a little trouble
understanding just how to apply this to maps cataloging. I thought I’d
ask the maps cataloging community what you think. Since we’re often
missing a date of publication for maps, does anyone have any tips on how
to interpret dates on maps in order to populate the 264 field dates? Is
it even critical for user access to populate all these fields? I catalog
a lot of rare maps that don’t have a copyright date or a publication
date, in some cases.
For example, what do you think belongs in the following fields:
264_0 Production date
264_1 Publication date
264_2 Distribution date
264_3 Manufacture date
264_4 Copyright date
Thanks for any suggestions you may have on this J
