At IU, how do I purchase software from ERDAS?

ERDAS IMAGINE is a powerful suite of software designed by ERDAS for image processing and interpretation of remotely sensed imagery. It offers tools for data preparation, spatial modeling, image processing, image classification, stereo analysis, and much more. In addition, Leica Photogrammetry Suite (LPS) provides production-oriented photogrammetric tools for a broad range of geospatial imaging applications.

Students, faculty, staff, and departments

At Indiana University, UITS manages the ERDAS Site License for all campuses. One license of ERDAS IMAGINE is available at an annual cost of $200. Licenses extend from February 1 to January 31 of the following year, but UITS will prorate the cost for one license. For example, if you purchase the software in August, you will only need to pay for the rest of the year's license ($100 for six months).

Departmental software must be ordered by an approved GIS Primary Contact within the department and will be charged to the department's IU account. Students must be registered for at least one IU course to qualify and may pay with a personal check made payable to Indiana University. Cash and credit card purchases are not accepted.

Licenses purchased through UITS cannot be used for profit ventures. Valid licenses entitle the user to one year of the following:

• Technical support from UITS and ERDAS
• Free version and patch updates to the licensed software
• Access to all ERDAS software offered on IUware Online:
