We study asymptotic expansions for the exponentially small splitting of separatrices of area preserving maps combining analytical and numerical points of view. Using analytic information, we conjecture the basis of functions of an asymptotic expansion and then extract actual values of the coefficients of the asymptotic series numerically. The computations are performed with high-precision arithmetic, which involves up to several thousands of decimal digits. This approach allows us to obtain information which is usually considered to be out of reach of numerical methods. In particular, we use our results to test that the asymptotic series are Gevrey-1 and to study positions and types of singularities of their Borel transform. Our examples are based on generalisations of the standard and Hénon maps.
