I am working in Train Traffic Controller software project.
My responsibility in this project is to develop the visual railroad GUI.
By now I am using some svg graphics in that GUI.

I prefer them because of their scalability talents.
Is it good or bad idea to use svg in a desktop application?

Any suggestions?
