Do you have data that could benefit from a map visualization, but a Google Maps or OpenStreetMaps implementation would be overkill? Do you have the need to display a simple, custom defined map of a specific area?

This session will cover the "Simple Interactive Maps" module; a user-friendly solution that allows your customers or end-users to define and view SVG based maps and to use them to navigate through your site or view topics of interest by simply clicking.

But that's not all – this module allows you to define user interactions individually for each region on the map, or create groups of regions that inherit the same interaction and styling options.

Furthermore this module can be enhanced with custom plugins that enable you to define base maps that meet your specific needs and apply the same user interaction options to them.

This module makes use of Drupal’s plugin API to allow developers to create their own custom base maps or map actions in response to user interaction.

During this demonstration, I will:
- Showcase the module's versatile functionality
- Unveil customization possibilities for site owners, web producers, and content editors
- Illustrate real-world applications and use cases
- Provide comparisons with other common mapping solutions
- (Time permitting) Provide a review of the plugin design that allows developers to define custom maps.

Whether you're a non-technical site owner or an experienced developer, this session promises to be invaluable. The module's intricate design will captivate senior developers, while its simplicity and intuitive nature empower non-technical professionals to deliver high-quality visualizations without the need for coding expertise.
