| Abstract | Spatial Information Grid (SIG) is a spatial information infrastructure that has the capability of providing services on-demand. It provides a new distributed computing pattern for sharing and operating the massive distributed spatial information resources. The global spatial data directory is an information tree organization used to quickly locate spatial data resources and spatial database nodes in SIG and it is a key technology about quickly discovering, querying and locating spatial information resources. In this research, groups of spatial information services and spatial operation services are developed to support spatial data discovery and spatial applications. Spatial database distributed on scattered nodes. They are connected by the network and form a visual super global spatial database. Spatial database on proximity or logically associated nodes combined as a domain spatial database and a domain spatial data directory was built by the local spatial directory service. Directories in different domains build the global spatial data directory by the directory copy and synchronous mechanism. A resource monitoring and discovery service (MDS) was developed to discover new spatial resources and monitor resources' status. Spatial data resources such as layers and digital raster graphics (DRG) were registered to the directory as spatial metadata, and node information and resource security level are also contained in spatial metadata structure. A security spatial resources access control mechanism was implemented based on grid security infrastructure (GSI) and role based access control (RBAC). Global spatial indexes were built by layer type, role permission or minimum bounding rectangle (MBR) based on the global spatial data directory. Spatial data query and quickly locate were well supported by these indexes. Spatial database nodes' dynamic join and exit are also supported, and “Center-Based” global directory's single-point dependence problem was resolved. The Globus Toolkit 4.0 was used as the grid infrastructure in this research. |

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.
