| Abstract | The city of Beijing is going through a rapid developing period, both in the suburbs and inside the old city. To detect the buildings developed in and around the city at present, Landsat-7 ETM+ and SPOT panchromatic imagery of 2001 were collected. To make use of higher spatial resolution of the SPOT panchromatic imagery and higher spectral resolution of the ETM+ imagery, the two data sources were fused. To reduce the confusion between urban built-up areas and non built-up areas, an unsupervised classification was performed first. Agricultural and large urban green and open areas such as parks and lakes were separated from other built-up areas. Major roads were mapped from ETM+ band8. Buildings were then extracted from the SPOT PAN imagery within the built-up areas using a set of proposed high-pass filters. Traditional Chinese-style houses, which are small in size and unidentifiable individually from the satellite imagery, were not detected. Our result shows that many medium-to-large buildings of regular arrangement can be mapped from the fused dataset. The buildings extracted from the satellite imagery can provide useful information for urban change detection and environmental management. |

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.
