Gallery floor maps

Mark each room or exhibit case on a floor plan and show what's currently on view when a visitor clicks it.

Artwork detail callouts

Point to a specific brushstroke, restoration area, or detail within a single high-resolution image.

Provenance and credits

Attach artist bios, acquisition history, or donor credits to a hotspot instead of a cramped wall label.

Building a clickable gallery map

  1. Upload your floor plan or a high-resolution artwork scan to Interactive Image.
  2. Place a hotspot on each gallery, case, or detail worth calling out.
  3. Write a short label for each — artist, title, or what's currently on view in that room.
  4. Copy the embed and add it to your museum's website or a QR-linked mobile page.
  5. Swap out hotspot content as exhibits rotate, without touching the printed map.

Where this fits alongside existing signage

Wall labels have a hard character limit, and printed maps go out of date the moment an exhibit changes. A digital hotspot map solves both — visitors get more context than a wall label allows, and staff can update what's showing in a gallery without reprinting anything. It also works well for a museum's website as a standalone feature: a virtual collection page where an artwork's hotspots point out restoration details or techniques that are hard to see in a normal photo caption.
