ESRI Geographic Information System (GIS) software, products, and services are available to Northern Arizona University through an Arizona tri-University site license. This site license is managed at our university by a consortium of campus ArcGIS sites*.

Description

1. Software overviews can be found at ESRI's website. 
2. The Software, Data, and Related Materials provided under this agreement can only be installed on NAU machines and can only be used for teaching, research, and administrative purposes by NAU staff, faculty, and students. Some restrictions apply to research and administrative purposes.  "Use of the licensed products for profit or private gain shall be an express violation of the terms..."
   
   "Administrative Use" means use of the Software, Data, Web Services, or Documentation for activities, such as asset mapping, facilities management, demographic analysis, routing, campus safety, and accessibility analysis that are not directly related to instruction, education, or academic research.
