| Abstract | With the development of society and economy, the rapid urban sprawl in land use is being witnessed of late in urban districts. As a result, many problems in society and environment have appeared in urban districts, such as population expansion, air pollution, etc. Assessment and inventory on urban sprawl is essential for city planning and sustainable development. The objective of this study was to detect the urban sprawl of Chengdu city (1992-2006) following the RS (remote sensing) and GIS technique based on EO data (Earth observation). EO data provided valuable information for understanding and monitoring the process of urban land cover changes. RS and GIS is gaining importance as vital tool in the detecting on urban sprawl of cities based on EO data. The urban sprawl area extracted from EO data of Chengdu city is 9882.808hm2, 2.686×104hm2 in 1992, 2006, respectively. The result shows that the Chengdu city is expanding in different directions resulting in large-scale urban sprawl and changes in urban land use, the spatial pattern of such changes is clearly noticed on the urban fringes than in the city centre. |

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.
