How to make and combine tile maps?

 

First, on the matter of dealing with all these tilemaps: should I include all the tmx files, or should I put the encoded data of each into a plist, to be inserted into an XML string? I'll have around 20 tilemaps of ~10×10, each with 3 layers.

Then, and more importantly, to combine them, is the only way to make a separate CCTMXTiledMap for each and align them (and also separate CCTMXLayers for each CCTMXTiledMap's layers)? Can I convert each to a 2d array of GIDs, then use the TMXGenerator (I'm shaky at best on how it works)? The best solution for me would be to have them all in one CCTMXTiledMap, but I don't really know how to make that happen.
