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
At Indiana University, students can purchase ERDAS software directly from ERDAS for $150 per year. See the Student License flyer.
Faculty, staff, and departments
At IU, UITS manages the ERDAS site license for all campuses. One ERDAS IMAGINE license is available at an annual cost of $220. 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 ($110 for six months).
Departmental software must be ordered by an approved GIS Specialist within the department, and will be charged to the department's IU account. 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
- Free version and patch updates to the licensed software
- Access to all ERDAS software offered on IUware
Placing an order
