Just spotted there doesn't appear to be a label saying what the scale is on this map, or the Nga-Whenuatoto parent map (in fact they seem to be the same size, although the Rarohenga map is distinctly zoomed-in compared to its parent).
The scale is in miles. I used the standard map template instead of the metric template. The map is the same size as the parent map. The continent is a little bigger because it is farther down (below the other map) Some of the symbols may be a little bigger.
Considering this is the size of a continent, I'd say no to the perspectives option. It would still be great for mapping small individual dungeons of this place, but the scale of a perspectives dungeon (or any floorplan type dungeon) is so tiny that it shouldn't be linked directly from a continent sized map as this.
I would think that for something as big as this, it will need to have regional area maps (and possibly even local maps from those) before even considering going down to the floorplan type of dungeons. And for that, the Dungeon Worlds style is probably the most fitting here, although there are other ways of making large underground areas.
Fortunately, there are plenty of places to put dungeons. In caves, in ruins, under cities, under temples, and many more.
I think this place can also support tons of dungeons in any style, but as I said, I personally think we need some regional/local map first, a dungeon style cannot be used to map areas large enough to be visible from the continent map, the place is just too huge.

I'm currently running a 1e ad&d play by post game, and thats taking up some of my time.
I'll see if i can come up with a small dungeon, maybe under a city.
