Why should a map be interactive?
Apart from being in the 21st century, maps should be interactive because you have little to no knowledge as to who is going to be using your map. They might be your local cartography professor or a layman who doesn't know the first thing about maps beside the meaning of the word. Interactivity enables your map to be easier to understand and use. Sometimes it performs a lot of the user's tasks for them. Other times we make them deliberately sophisticated so as to create an out of this world experience for the user. That said, check out this really cool map of middle-earth that preceded the launch of the 2013 Hobbit movie. It really brings to life the meaning of map interactivity, guiding you alongside Frodo and his adventures in J.R.Tolkein's The Hobbit. I hope you enjoy it as much as we did here at Edge Spatial: http://middle-earth.thehobbit.com/map (you should probably check this out on your computer for the best experience)

The study of geography is about more than just memorizing places on a map. It's about understanding the complexity of our world, appreciating the diversity of cultures that exists across continents. And in the end, it's about using all that knowledge to help bridge divides and bring people together. - Barack Obama

The websites of public spaces – such as universities, parks, or museums – you’ll often find a section of their site that offers an accessibility map, that shows paths, entrances, exits and the likes: these maps are often static, or in pdf form, or even in hard copy. This poses a major challenge in terms of user interpretation.
Interesting article by GIS lounge casts a spotlight on this.
A problem our product, Zunguka aims to cure.

For a consistent experience across mobile devices, accessibility maps should be interactive instead of static images or PDFs.
