You can check keyboard file for keyboard layout information...
nano /etc/default/keyboard
OUTPUT:
# KEYBOARD CONFIGURATION FILE
# Consult the keyboard(5) manual page.
XKBMODEL="pc105"
XKBLAYOUT="us"
XKBVARIANT=""
XKBOPTIONS=""
BACKSPACE="guess"
Value of XKBLAYOUT is the layout of keyboard. Change it to another possible value and reboot the machine to take effects.

This is way with one direction.
loadkeys modify kernel keyboard driver's translation table by loadind keyboard keymap file.
If nobody issue loadkeys you can check /etc/rc.d/rc.keymap file for loaded keymap.
You can check content of kernel keyboard driver's translation table using dumpkeys. There are no tool to find from which keymap file data was loaded into table.
