Notes:

1   Programs will only be invoiced for actual travel costs upon completion of the installation.  The estimated cost is based on travel within North America and is provided here for budgeting purposes.  Programs can estimate costs based on travel for one NatureServe staff person traveling from Arlington, VA to your program location and remaining on site for approximately one week.

2 Oracle offers a wide range of product licenses, Standard, Standard Edition One or Enterprise edition, for named users or per processor, and for fixed 2-year or 4-year terms or perpetual.  Please consult your local Oracle vendor, the Oracle website, and the NatureServe Biotics Implementation Guide for more details.  The cost reflected in the summary above is a typical example. If your program does not use Oracle contact your Biotics Installer before purchasing licences.

3 Under the current NatureServe MPA with ESRI, US member programs may purchase ArcView 3.X licenses at a cost of $360 for the first license and $145 for each additional license.  This applies to US member programs only.
