At IU, how do I purchase IDRISI software?

IDRISI is an integrated GIS and image processing system that includes nearly 300 modules for the analysis and display of digital spatial information.

UITS GIS Services manages the Indiana University site license with Clark Labs for IDRISI and Cartalinx software. At IU Bloomington, IDRISI is available in all Student Technology Centers.

• Students: May purchase IDRISI directly from Clark Labs at reduced prices. The Student Starter license is fully functional for a year after the purchase, and includes documentation and tutorial exercises. When ordering, you will need to provide proof of student status, such as your current semester's schedule of classes.

  To order a license, complete the IDRISI Student Order Form, and then mail or fax it according to the instructions on the form. You can pay by check, money order, or credit card. You can order a software CD or download the software online.

• Faculty and staff: May purchase IDRISI for $200 annually from UITS GIS Services. The license year for IDRISI software begins July 1st and ends June 30th of each year. If you have an existing license and would like to continue using the software, you will need to renew in July at a rate of $200 per license.

  To order GIS and remote sensing software, visit the GIS License System (requires CAS login).

  New users must first register with the system by selecting Add User.

If you have questions about IDRISI software or other GIS and remote sensing software, email the UITS GIS Specialists.

For more about statistical and mathematical software, email the UITS Stat/Math Center, visit the center's web page, or phone 812-855-4724 (IUB) or 317-278-4740 (IUPUI). The center is located in Bloomington at 410 N. Park Avenue, and is open for consultation by appointment Monday-Friday 9am-5pm.
