Map publishing with SVG
We’ve been tinkering with Scalable Vector Graphics (SVG). This rather under-used XML based graphics format is ideal for publishing map data on the web. With the included scripting capabilities some neat effects can be achieved - like this map with selectable countries.
In our view, many websites could vastly improve their usability simply by including this kind of interactivity. It would be great if the next generation of browsers natively supported this format! - in the meantime, download Adobes plugin: www.adobe.com.
