UW-System Site
License
UW-Madison
is now a part of the UW-System-wide site license which includes most
ESRI products. This supercedes the SIAC negotiated contract, and the
UW-Madison portion is currently administered through LICGF. In essence,
in exchange for $25,000 per year in maintenance, the UW has unlimited
right to copy ESRI products for use by UW-Madison Campus departments,
institutes, and so forth. Some documentation is available on-line,
and printed documentation can be ordered. See the link at left for fees.
Master copies
of the media are kept at LICGF, and can be checked out for installation.
Documentation orders will also be placed by LICGF, which should have
a small stock of printed docs on hand. All others can get the Free
Arc
Explorer software (Windows only, sorry!) directly from ESRI.
A copy of the User's Agreement for the UW-Madison is here.
Technical support
from ESRI is to be funneled through one of 6 named Campus
Contacts, including Math Heinzel at LICGF.
NOTE: Some
patches and upgrades for ESRI products are now available here.
