That's a good first step, but beyond just saving them as SVG, which is
important, it would be great to have instructions on how they were
made: what software was used? How can one create a new, updated
version when the data changes?
For example, see
http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Category:Images_with_Gnuplot_source_code
- these pictures can be recreated easily.
Kind regards,
