Features
IDL and ENVI are available for macOS, Windows, and Linux workstations. For labs, a single network license server (Windows and Linux only) can provide licensing for all clients. Faculty, staff and students may download installers for the software; CU Boulder username and IdentiKey password are required. (Note: An X-Windows manager is required for Macintosh; download and install XQuartz from their website.)
The current versions are IDL 8.8 + ENVI 5.6.
Cost
A new or upgrade license involves a $50 service fee.
Who can get it
IDL/ENVI licenses (via our site license) are available for faculty, student and university-owned computers at the University of Colorado Boulder. Generally this means computers in the colorado.edu domain or used in pursuing a degree at CU Boulder. Users are to uninstall this software when they graduate or otherwise leave the campus permanently.
How to get it
To order IDL 8.8 and ENVI 5.6, visit OIT's OnTheHub Software Ordering page for more information and instructions.
