InfoMap module can be used to display information on a picture dynamically. Its main intention is to position users contact lists on a map but can be used to display any kind of information you imagine. InfoMap presents a clickable map with 'hot' areas where some information has been entered. Upon clicking in any given area, the list of contacts (or any custom information) for this area is displayed.
You can display any picture you want, so this is not tied to just geographical maps. It can be used to present organization charts, network equipment, offices, etc. InfoMap is organized as a series of images (maps) where you can define areas or information points. Maps can be of two different types:
Master map: is a map that where you will define active areas (of any form) which will link to more detailed maps for these areas. This is useful to create high level maps that can be further detailed on following levels.
Information map: is a map that will contain information items. An information can be whatever you can imagine: personal information, branch or department details (on a medium sized business), local office details (for an international website),...
