SVG and X3D: New XML Technologies for 2D and 3D Visualization

Since XML separates content from presentation rules, any appropriate language and technology can be used for displaying the content of an XML document in a visually rich form. Leading Web technologies such as Sun Java (java.sun.com) or Macromedia Shockwave (www.macromedia.com) provide developers with good opportunities to create interactive visualizations on the Web. However, some essentially new visualization technologies are emerging, which are entirely based on XML and therefore can be considered as native to the Semantic Web.
