SVGZ

Scalable Vector Graphics Compressed

The SVGZ (Scalable Vector Graphics Compressed) format is a compressed version of the SVG (Scalable Vector Graphics) format. It offers the same capabilities and advantages as SVG but with the added benefit of reduced file size. SVGZ files are compressed using gzip, a file compression algorithm, which significantly reduces the file size compared to uncompressed SVG files. This compression makes SVGZ files more efficient for web delivery, as they can be downloaded faster and consume less bandwidth. When a web browser encounters an SVGZ file, it automatically decompresses the file and renders it as an SVG image. This means that SVGZ files can be seamlessly integrated into websites and web applications, providing the same scalability, interactivity, and styling options as SVG files. It is important to note that not all web browsers support SVGZ natively, so it is advisable to provide fallback options or convert SVGZ files to SVG format for broader compatibility.
