This is the primary purpose of the entire Bridge and GVT packages
in Batik. You can take a look at the 'Boot SVG and CSS DOM' on the wiki:

Simple SVG shapes become a ShapeNode in the GVT, groups become
a CompositeGraphicsNode. You can walk that tree and do whatever you
want.

Such a simple approach will miss things like 'filters', the
semantics of 'use' elements, 'image' elements, etc. Also of course
dynamic content.
Good luck.
