Entity Icon Language
SnS uses a consistent entity icon language across admin, editor, spatial, and digital twin workflows. Each icon gives a quick visual cue for a core platform concept while keeping navigation and editor surfaces predictable.

Place Intelligence Platform
The icon language supports the SnS Place Intelligence Platform by making core entities easier to recognize as workflows move from community context to places, structures, requests, projects, work orders, assets, versions, layers, and twins.
Consistent icons help preserve the relationship between spatial context, operational records, and digital representations without requiring each screen to explain the same concepts again.
Consistency
Icon consistency helps users scan navigation, recognize editor context, understand spatial workflows, and move between reusable UI patterns without relearning the visual language.
The practical rule is simple: when an entity appears in a root bar, list, editor heading, map panel, or reusable component, use the same icon unless the local view has a specific reason to show a different action or state icon.
