I would like to convert this svg map example of England into an Arcgis js map

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<meta charset="UTF-8">
<title>Raphaël JS Map</title>
<style type="text/css">
.united-kingdom {
background-image: url(img/united_kingdom.png);
background-repeat: no-repeat;
}

.heaven-on-earth {
fill: yellow;
}
</style>
</head>
<body>
<div id="map" class="united-kingdom">

</div>
<h3 id="region-name"></h3>
<script src="raphael-min.js"></script>
<script src="map.js"></script>
</body>
</html>

you can demo the full example at this link Tutorial - Creating an Interactive SVG map - Blog - Parallax

Is it possible to take the svg file converted to a CAD and then imported to ArcGIS ArcMap?

Hi Michelle,

Did you ever find a solution for this?

If not, maybe it is easier to find open source data of geographic regions of the UK versus converting the SVG file to CAD and then to GIS. I think it might be faster that way.
