Most of my flying is at about 2,000 ft AGL so I use the usual 1/2 mil chart, along with my GPS which displays the identical 1/2 mil chart - and unlike the paper map, you can zoom in and it doesn't have creases!

I'm sure it's only a matter of time before we have Augmented Reality (AR) glasses that allow us to look at any place/road/monument on the ground and it will display the info, a bit like the FlightRadar app I've got on my iPhone that you just point at any passing airliner.....
