The map files within the zip files have the extension .PDB

There seem to be two parallel directories of maps on the site:

       http://radioroom.org/public/APRS/Maps/

and

       http://radioroom.org/public/APRS-Maps/



The contents of these two directories overlap but are not identical. 

Although the zip files are dated 2004 or 2005, the map files within them 
are dated 1999 or earlier.
