I wanna say the Metropolis-Hastings algorithm is probably the best way to explore any probability distribution like this. The core algorithm is pretty similar to battleships -- pick a random point from a map, then explore neighbouring points, use the difference between predicted and measured results to update the map, and when bored do random restarts.
