Interactive Places create a simple and powerful interpretive tool with multiple benefits:

- it uses technology to give each visitor an individual experience
- it sparks and maintains visitors’ interest by granting them access to further layers of information
- it can allow you to show more than you have space to exhibit and to show how your site, or collection, links with other heritage sites, museums, and galleries
- it is robust, portable and easy to use both inside and out.
- it encourages discussion as visitors compare their experience with that of friends or family, reinforcing the experience
