| Abstract | Digital spatial data are underlying strong temporal changes. The typical approach of updating these changes is to check the data manually for their correctness by superimposing them on up-to-date orthophotos. The update cycles of large data sets are in the range of several years. At present shorter update cycles are unrealizable for two reasons. The manual inspection of the data is very cost- and time-consuming and aerial photographs for large areas are very often not available in the needed time intervals. However, a decisive turn can be seen in data availability. With new satellite systems, it will be possible to provide up-to-date high resolution orthophotos in short time periods and high quality in the near future. At September 24th, 1999, the optical high resolution satellite IKONOS, developed by the company Space Imaging (http://www.spaceimaging.com), was brought successfully into orbit. Further systems as for example Quickbird of the company EarthWatch, OrbView 3 and 4 of the company ORBIMAGE or EROS A and B of the company West Indian Space will follow shortly (see also [9, 10]). The data which will be delivered from these new satellite systems will close the gap between existing medium resolution satellite data (as for example Spot, Landsat or IRS-1C) and very high resolution data from airborne systems. In near future users will be able to select images from several providers to use them for their mapping tasks. In order to eliminate the still existing bottle-neck of manual updating of GIS data, the Institute of Photogrammetry (ifp), University of Stuttgart developed a software package which is presented in this article. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
