| Abstract | On behalf of the Program Committee, it is our pleasure to welcome the participants to the 11th International Symposium of ACM GIS, held in New Orleans, Louisiana on November 7th and 8th, 2003. This year's ACM-GIS is the eleventh of a series of symposia/workshops that began in 1993 with the aim of bringing together researchers, developers, users, and practitioners carrying out research and development in novel systems based on geo-spatial data and knowledge, and fostering interdisciplinary discussions and research in all aspects of geographic information systems.Following an international call for papers, 82 papers were submitted and reviewed by an international panel of experts in the field of GIS. Of the 82 submitted papers, 22 were accepted (yielding an acceptance rate of 27%). The size of the submission indicates the continued health of the field and interest in it. All final papers, modified according to comments from the reviewers, appear in this volume.The invited keynote talk was from Dr. David Maguire, who presented a lecture entitled "Beyond the GIS Desktop".We would like to thank the Program Committee for giving so freely of their time and insightful opinions. Their reviews were based upon paper originality, significance, relevance, presentation and technical quality. Many of the submitted papers required further review and discussion. We appreciate the efforts of the reviewers in arriving at consensus on the papers involved. This process requires much time and effort. |

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.
