I should have touched on this directly in my first response…
Sectional charts are the standard for VFR Navigation. The U.S. ones are all on SkyVector, but other countries are less well represented. It can be difficult to get VFR Charts for a lot of the world in a inexpensive online format. And of course the content varies.
Navigraph’s VFR maps don’t look really like the U.S. sectionals I’m used to, but they are better than the IFR route charts for sure (if you’re flying VFR). And they have good world wide coverage.
Anyhow, my knowledge is all U.S. And I can tell you that skyvectors U.S. sectionals are exactly the charts used here. They do show navaids, and intersections etc that are used by both IFR and VFR pilots, but what they have that IFR do not is topographical shading, markings showing urbanized areas (yellow), major highways, large electrical transmission lines etc that would be useful when navigating by visual reference.
If you have skyvector showing ‘World VFR’ (with all the maps seamlessly connected) you will not see the map legends and notes… So if you’re not familiar with what these charts contain, click the button at the top right corner that just has the chart name. It’ll be up there near the buttons for ‘world vfr’ ‘IFR High’ ‘IFR Low’ etc… you should see one with (for U.S. at least) a major city name, such as Los Angeles.
Once you have the sectional chart displayed with that button, you will be able to see all of the notes on how to use the charts, what the symbology is, etc, and even the back side of the chart which often has a LOT of helpful additional information.
