   Well you can load the SVG document and then add a path element that
goes back and forth a lot.  I've done that before to overlay a grid.

   Once you had the image with the grid over it you would still need
to do something to set the colors of each cell and then turn that into
a raster document.   I don't know for certain but it seems to me like
you could simply rasterize the SVG document at high resolution and use
something like an icon edit program to create a 'low resolution' version.
I think I've seen things like that before...
