Scalable Vector Graphics

Scalable Vector Graphics (SVG) is an XML-based image file format which uses two-dimensional vector graphics.

Description

SVG supports for interactivity and animation.

The SVG specification is an open standard developed by the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C) since 1999.

SVG images and their behaviors are defined in XML text files. This means that they can be searched, indexed, scripted, and compressed.

As XML files, SVG images can be created and edited with any text editor, but are more often created with drawing software.

Web browser support

All major modern web browsers -- including Mozilla Firefox, Internet Explorer, Google Chrome, Opera, and Safari -- have at least some degree of SVG rendering support.
