| Abstract | Due to fast urbanization, natural ecosystems are increasingly being replaced by urban development. Human health is also being threatened. Shanghai has been experiencing a rapid urbanization for over two decades. It is challenging to protect the unique natural ecosystem for planners and decision makers because of the complex ecosystems and other factors. This paper presents an integrated method for planning urban land-use by combining HHM (habitat heterogeneity model) and MCA (multi-criteria analysis) with GIS. The authors evaluated the suitability of this method for four types of land usage including nature reserves, forest plantations, residential areas and industrial areas by taking Shanghai, China, as the study area. Factors considered in the model were soil characteristics, topographic attributes, vegetation cover, human population density and landscape heterogeneity. Results indicated that central city is most suitable for residential areas. Nature reserves and forest areas are mainly distributed in the three islands of Chongming County and southern, northwestern and southwestern parts of Shanghai. The industry area is best located in the eastern city. The success of this method in Shanghai can be copied to other developing cities in China. In order to provide a scientific basis for ecological conservation and biodiversity protection during urban development, we propose to establish a technical guidance principle on urban planning and a relatively uniform evaluation system. |

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.
