| Abstract | With the rapid rise in site-specific data collection, many research efforts have been directed towards finding optimal sampling and analysis procedures. However, the absence of widely available high quality precision agriculture data sets makes it difficult to compare results from separate experiments and to assess the optimality and applicability of procedures. To provide a tool for spatial data experimentation, we have developed a spatial data generator that allows users to produce data layers with given spatial properties and a response variable (e.g. crop yield) dependent upon user specified functions. Differences in response functions within fields can be simulated by assigning different models to regions in coordinate-(x and y) or feature space (multidimensional space of attributes that may have an influence on response). Noise, either unexplained variance or sensor error, can be added to all spatial layers. Sampling and interpolation error is modeled by sampling a continuous data layer and interpolating values at unsampled locations. The program has been successfully tested for up to 15000 grid points, 10 features and 5 models. As an illustration of the potential uses of generated data, the effect of sampling density and kriging interpolation on neural network prediction of crop yield was assessed. Yield prediction accuracy was highly related (correlation coefficient 0.98) to the accuracy of the interpolated layers indicating that unless data are sampled at very high densities relative to their geostatistical properties, one should not attempt to build highly accurate regression functions using interpolated data. By allowing users to generate large amounts of data with controlled complexity and features, the spatial data generator should facilitate the development of improved sampling and analysis procedures for spatial data. |

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.
