| Abstract | The city of Lynchburg, located 180 miles southwest of Washington, D.C., consists of a population of approximately 70,000 people. As the economy of the city grows, Lynchburg is exploring ways on how to make use of its available vacant land to promote its economic vitality, increase revenue for the city, and at the same time maintain the integrity of its natural and historical environment. Vacant land, as well as land re-development will be analyzed based on three alternatives ranked by a multi-attribute utility function. The three alternatives take into account the five public/private universities and colleges, as well as, its geographic location, current population size, and existing infrastructure, among others. The city database is analyzed using a Geographic Information System to identify vacant plots of land and analyze possible land use plans. Results include cost estimating relationships for urban development build-out alternatives, including utility modifications which are to be included so that city planners can compare an objective utility function vs. estimated costs for a set of future city development scenarios. |

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.
