Opening up Data - the benefits and value from a community and funding perspec...
This document discusses the benefits of opening up data from a community and funding perspective. It provides three reasons to support open data: 1) Making data open "makes us mighty" by allowing others to build upon it freely, 2) Open data is more democratic and sustainable as the community can contribute to the growth of knowledge, and 3) Acts of open sharing ("Random Acts of Kindness") can spread knowledge in unexpected ways. Specific examples are given of open data projects related to history and World War I that saw contributions from the public and volunteers, keeping costs low while maximizing community benefits and engagement.

Through various digitization efforts and partnerships, portions of the newspaper, television, radio, and web archives are available online, including the British Newspaper Archive with over 23 million digitized pages. Going forward, the British Library aims to increase the amount of collections available through continued digitization, release of datasets as open data, and potential expanded licensing options.EurnewsLDN_Patrick_Fleming
The British Library Newspaper Programme aims to preserve their collection of 750 million newspaper pages, improve access, and create space for future growth. They partnered with brightsolid (now DC Thomson Family History) to launch the British Newspaper Archive, committing to digitize up to 40 million newspaper pages over 10 years. Through this partnership, DC Thomson scans out-of-copyright newspaper content from the Library's collections and provides free public access online and via micropayments, while also working with publishers to acquire additional content and returning all digitized content to the Library. This partnership has resulted in wider access to newspaper content online and revenue for both the Library and DC Thomson.

HE Forum CCB Realities In Teaching. Andy Clowe
The document discusses a college's media streaming solution and its role in teaching and learning. It examines how streaming can engage learners, reinforce learning, and provide current information. While not all content is useful, streaming provides easy access to information students can revisit. Streaming adds an additional resource to the college's virtual learning environment and increases student engagement. The college aims to build skills sharing between lecturers and improve the sense of community through shared experiences. Future developments include expanding streaming availability, recording more practical skills, and focusing provision based on usage statistics.
HE Forum CCB Streaming. Mark Wilson
The document discusses streaming media and how it differs from downloading by allowing for the simultaneous transfer of digital media so it can be viewed in real-time. It provides definitions of streaming media and discusses various software options for streaming media, including SageTV, RealProducer, Real Helix Server, and CCB Stream. The document also notes some considerations for streaming such as storage needs, disk speed requirements, and backup strategies.
HE Forum CCB LRC. Phyllis McDonald
The LRC has been recording broadcasts since the 1980s and making them available for teaching. They want to make these recordings more widely and easily accessible through streaming while also having backup copies. Staffing needs have changed over time with now a Systems Librarian coordinating, an AV Librarian cataloging, and IT staff assisting.

LAND USE LAND COVER AND NDVI OF MIRZAPUR DISTRICT, UP
This Dissertation explores the particular circumstances of Mirzapur, a region located in the
core of India. Mirzapur, with its varied terrains and abundant biodiversity, offers an optimal
environment for investigating the changes in vegetation cover dynamics. Our study utilizes
advanced technologies such as GIS (Geographic Information Systems) and Remote sensing to
analyze the transformations that have taken place over the course of a decade.
The complex relationship between human activities and the environment has been the focus
of extensive research and worry. As the global community grapples with swift urbanization,
population expansion, and economic progress, the effects on natural ecosystems are becoming
more evident. A crucial element of this impact is the alteration of vegetation cover, which plays a
significant role in maintaining the ecological equilibrium of our planet.Land serves as the foundation for all human activities and provides the necessary materials for
these activities. As the most crucial natural resource, its utilization by humans results in different
'Land uses,' which are determined by both human activities and the physical characteristics of the
land.
The utilization of land is impacted by human needs and environmental factors. In countries
like India, rapid population growth and the emphasis on extensive resource exploitation can lead
to significant land degradation, adversely affecting the region's land cover.
Therefore, human intervention has significantly influenced land use patterns over many
centuries, evolving its structure over time and space. In the present era, these changes have
accelerated due to factors such as agriculture and urbanization. Information regarding land use and
cover is essential for various planning and management tasks related to the Earth's surface,
providing crucial environmental data for scientific, resource management, policy purposes, and
diverse human activities.
Accurate understanding of land use and cover is imperative for the development planning
of any area. Consequently, a wide range of professionals, including earth system scientists, land
and water managers, and urban planners, are interested in obtaining data on land use and cover
changes, conversion trends, and other related patterns. The spatial dimensions of land use and
cover support policymakers and scientists in making well-informed decisions, as alterations in
these patterns indicate shifts in economic and social conditions. Monitoring such changes with the
help of Advanced technologies like Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems is
crucial for coordinated efforts across different administrative levels. Advanced technologies like
Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems

Changes in vegetation cover refer to variations in the distribution, composition, and overall
structure of plant communities across different temporal and spatial scales. These changes can
occur natural.
