Question

In what way WebDAV protocol is better than HTTP protocol in terms of upload.

Is there comparison between Socket Upload protocol and WebDav Upload protocol?

WebDAV is an extension of HTTP, the question requires rethought. — Steve-o

WebDav is an extension of the HTTP protocol. Like AJAX for PHP. The upload progess is much more faster and easy to setup in a big company network than HTTP regular uploads.

A WebDAV-Server supports SSL(Secure Sockets Layer) too. You can upload via HTTP-POST directorys.

Sockets are permanently connected to the destination until the task is done.

WebDAV upload uses PUT, which is the same as in HTTP. So there really is no difference.
