Just stumbled upon this post on Mashable: http://mashable.com/2007/05/15/16-awesome-data-visualization-tools/

Several good ideas what could be implemented in Drupal on the field of visualization. With open formats like SVG there is no stopping us :)

Yah, cool link.

Something I've come across, might be an answer to users with crappy non-svg browsers. Deng allows you to render SVG through Flash.

I'm going to add Deng interface support to SWF Tools. This may give us extra tricks to ensure browser support. But I'd still like to prefer native svg and i'm looking at an extension of what nedjo knocked up here as a solution to that - ways to test for browser svg support and pass that information back to the server via the session.

In other words, I think we are really close to some practical solutions here.
