Hi Kun,
SVG includes two elements for providing short and long text descriptions: The “title” and “desc” elements. This link on text in an SVG file may be helpful:

Hi

Anyone has experience in creating accessible SVG floor map?  I am wondering
if there is a way to add descriptions in SVG to each block (path or rect).
Or I am being limited to the alt tag in HTML.

Thanks

Kun
