Combining SVG images programmatically

I have a program that generates multiple SVG files in batch, which I then need to be able to combine (tiled) into one file, with a set whitespace and set width in cm (or mm).

I need either an existing script or a pointer to which libraries and languages I can use to accomplish this. Any suggestions where to start?
