ENVI is the industry standard for image processing and analysis software. It is used by image analysts, GIS professionals and scientists to extract timely, reliable and accurate information from geospatial imagery. This geospatial software is scientifically proven, easy to use and tightly integrated with Esri’s ArcGIS platform.
ENVI geospatial software is written in IDL®, a modern programming language that provides the ability to extend or customize ENVI features and functionality. The ENVI API lets users add their own proprietary algorithms, extend existing tools and models and automate workflows for batch processing.
The College of Forestry has a limited number of licenses available for faculty and staff. Please contact the Forestry Helpdesk for more information.
ENVI is used for processing and analyzing geospatial imagery. ENVI is built on IDL, a powerful programming language, allowing for easy feature and functionality customization.
