| Abstract | TerraSAR-X is a new generation, high resolution radar satellite, which is planned for launch in 2006. The mission is setup to produce operational remote sensing products for commercial and scientific use from a spaceborne X-Band synthetic aperture radar (SAR) system. After a 5 month in-orbit commissioning phase TerraSAR-X will be operational for an active lifetime of 5 years. TerraSAR-X is Germany's first Earth Observation space project based on public-private partnership of the German Aerospace Center and the ASTRJUM GmbH. The TerraSAR-X mission was designed to serve two main objectives: 1) provide the scientific community with high-quality, X-band SAR-data for research and application purposes; 2) support the establishment of an Earth Observation market; and 3) and develop a sustainable Earth Observation service in Europe, based on TerraSAR-X derived products. The broad spectrum of TerraSAR-X applications, include: Hydrology, Geology, Climatology, Oceanography, Environmental- and Disaster Monitoring as well as Cartography. The scientific potential of TerraSAR-X is based on a combination of unprecedented features of the SAR instrument, which will for the first time be operational in space. The features of TerraSAR-X offer new and promising applications for oceanography. In this work some promising applications concerning wind, wave and current measurements as well as monitoring of morphodynamic changes are introduced. |

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.
