Whittle

  • The Internet Archive's capture of Dassault Systemes' GEOVIA Whittle page on 20 January 2021 named it as one of seven distinct GEOVIA mining products (alongside Surpac, GEMS, Minex, MineSched, PCBC, InSite), sold via a 'How to buy' contact process with no price figure published.

Envirosuite

  • Envirosuite publishes no price; the site shows no rate, no per site fee and no minimum, and routes buyers to sales or a demo
  • The offering combines software with physical monitoring hardware, so a deployment requires buying or installing sensor equipment for air, dust, odour, noise, vibration or water
  • Coverage is per monitored parameter, so adding noise or water monitoring to an air quality deployment is a further purchase
