What SHIV could have is an active map that you can click on and more detailed smaller maps would appear at the location your sub is at that point in time.

Sounds like the right idea. That is how naval charts are used anyways. Big ones with low detail, and several detailed charts of treacherous waters. A captain doesn't need a detailed map of the middle of the atlantic as long as the depth under his keel is sufficiently deep.
