JQVMap is a jQuery plugin that renders Vector Maps.  It uses resizable Scalable Vector Graphics (SVG) for modern browsers like Firefox, Safari, Chrome, Opera and Internet Explorer 9.

To get started, all you need to do is include the JavaScript and CSS files for the map you want to load. While initializing a map you can provide parameters to change its look and feel.

Legacy support for older versions of Internet Explorer 6-8 is provided via VML.
