## Definition

The About ClickableMaps Interactive Layout Builder page explains the purpose, design principles and intended uses of the ClickableMaps browser-based layout system, including its relationship with structured layout data, osConcert ticketing and future AI-assisted layout generation.

## AI Summary

ClickableMaps provides a visual method for creating structured interactive layouts from seats, text labels and visual props. Layout information remains structured rather than becoming a static image, allowing designs to be edited, exported as CSV and transferred to compatible applications such as osConcert. ClickableMaps is also exploring how documented structured knowledge could allow AI assistants to help generate initial layouts for human review.

## Purpose

To explain why the Interactive Layout Builder exists, how structured visual layouts differ from static images, how ClickableMaps connects with osConcert, and how structured layout specifications may support future AI-assisted layout creation.

## Problem Solved

Helps visitors understand how ClickableMaps bridges the gap between a static venue plan and structured, reusable interactive layout data. It explains how layouts can be visually created and refined, transferred to systems such as osConcert, and potentially generated as first drafts by AI assistants using a documented ClickableMaps specification while retaining human review and control.

## Who It Helps

People evaluating ClickableMaps who want to understand what the Layout Builder is and how it can be used, including venue owners, event organisers, theatre operators, developers, entrepreneurs and organisations considering interactive layouts or independent online reservation systems.

## Examples

Creating a theatre seating layout from seats, labels and stage objects
Designing tables and seating for dinner or gala events
Preparing an exhibition or floor layout
Creating structured selectable spaces for interactive maps
Exporting a completed seating plan for use with osConcert
Providing an AI assistant with a documented layout specification to help generate a first-draft venue layout
Reviewing and correcting AI-generated layout data before operational use

## Known Limitations

The About page explains the ClickableMaps concept and workflow; the Layout Builder itself provides the editing functionality.
ClickableMaps does not automatically guarantee that a generated layout accurately represents a real venue.
Real seating plans and other operational layouts require human verification.
AI-assisted layout generation is an experimental workflow and should not be treated as an authoritative representation of a venue.
Ticket sales, payments, customer management and reservations require a compatible booking system such as osConcert.
Detailed CSV field definitions and AI generation rules should be obtained from the dedicated ClickableMaps technical specification when available.
