Hello Sajid,

Is it possible to create or digitize online (on a webGIS created using
a open server)on a satellite image for example Landsat. My aim is to
create aoi's(area of interests) and it should be able to save the
created layer to the database.

I read that SVG can be used for this. Is it true. Can any one help me
in this regard.

If I understand what you're asking, you have a bitmapped image (like .jpg or 
.tiff) and are wondering if you can use SVG to find regions (like polygons) 
within that image.

Not really... not without some assistance from a human. There are software 
packages than can assist with the automatic recognition of simple edges and the 
like : Adobe Streamline, NIH Image (freeware), and Inkscape (open source), just 
to name a few, have differing levels of capability at "vectorizing" bitmaps. 
Inkscape works natively with SVG, and so it can assist in such matters.

On the other hand, using SVG, one can create a web page which would allow an 
image (in say jpg format) to be inserted into a drawing space, where thereafter 
a human could zoom in and pan about, and then draw polygons atop the image 
(identifying crucial features). The user-created layers could then be exported 
to a server.

Hope this helps,
David Dailey
