SVG - based graphics provide an excellent alternative to traditional raster-based visualization techniques by enabling variable content resolution without bandwidth cost. The zooming and panning capabilities of the vector graphics enable the application providers to provide a higher information density than with bitmap data. The animation and built-in javascript support provide time-series visualization support at a much lower overhead cost than with bitmap-based systems.
