It's HTML5 (no space), and the existing Canvas implementations would merely 
be standardized by that Specification, which is currently only a W3C Working 
Draft (Candidate Recommendation).

An even older – but not worse – alternative to that is SVG, which is at 
least equally well documented, a Web standard (W3C Recommendation), and 
mentioned in said English Wikipedia article.  Both Canvas and SVG can be 
used inline without namespace declarations in HTML5 documents; the latter 
can also be used inline in XHTML 1.1, given the proper DOCTYPE and namespace 
declarations.
