Design and Interchange

SVG is well suited to the high-end graphical design market common in the Aerospace, Transportation, Automotive and Telecommunication industries.

The extensibility of XML allows SVG diagrams to have embedded metadata in proprietary formats without affecting the presentation.

For example, a CAD program could export to SVG for online display, but embedded data within the file that facilitates future editing or round tripping.

Also, since many design tools support import and export of SVG, it can be used as an interchange format between applications.
