| Abstract | The application of flood forecasting model require the efficient management of large spatial and temporal datasets, which involves data acquisition, storage and processing, as well as manipulation, reporting and display results. The complexity of flood forecasting makes it difficult for individual organization to deal effectively with decision-making. Difficulty in linking data, analysis tools and models across organization is one of the barriers to be overcome in developing integrated flood forecasting system. Therefore, it is required to develop Web- based Spatial Decision Support System (SDSS), supporting information exchange and knowledge and model sharing from different organizations on the web. Such a SDSS provide the framework within which spatially distributed real-time data accessed remotely to prepare model input files, model calculation and evaluate model results for flood forecasting and flood risk prediction This paper develops a SDSS for on-line flood forecasting and flood risk mapping in Oak Ridges Moraine (ORM), southern Ontario, Canada, integrating information retrieval, analysis and model analysis for information sharing and decision-making support. This SDSS will improve understanding of the environmental, planning and management issues and emergency management and response associated with the ORM's water environment, and to develop sustainable solutions. |

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.
