Looks like path triplets. For some insights:

Reading the SVG format is fine (and there are likely libraries for
this), but you can also export the path directly to your own format, see
for instance the path-csv script here:

So in trying to start a project to read the file contents of Gimp's SVG
format I am struggling. I am going on about 6 hours of research and have not
found anything that breaks the format down for me. Since I am new to SVG and
its structure I may just be searching the incorrect key terms. What I am
really looking to find is a detailed explanation, would really help me here.
Opening the file in VS Code I can see that there is an attribute under the
path node, the attribute is "d". Here I can see what appear to be metric
data points. But I cant seem to figure out how they are put together. Being
a developer for CAD systems for several years I expected line / arc data. I
can see points which I assume make up the lines but I do not see arc data
(at least I don't think).
What I think I have figured out is the start and stop of a path. M and Z
(again maybe, I am guessing here)
Here is a small section of what I am trying to decipher.
