How can we help?
ENVI software is the definitive leader in spectral image processing and analysis with the top tools to analyze multi and hyperspectral data including spectral target detection and identification. These geospatial analysis tools are based on established, scientific methods for spectral analysis – using pixel responses at different wavelengths to obtain information about the materials within each pixel.
ENVI spectral tools can detect targets, calculate vegetation and forest health, map materials of interest, and much more. They are used to measure marine debris and pollution, analyze wildlife habitats, map oil slicks, evaluate water quality, mitigate wildfires, detect methane leaks, identify minerals, map vegetation health, and assist with many Defense and Intelligence applications.
There are interactive capabilities found exclusively in ENVI including spectral library support and workflows that are needed to process hyperspectral data. ENVI’s spectral algorithms have been peer-reviewed, tested, and ultimately proven by the remote sensing community over several decades.

ENVI Modeler, a tool that helps you perform batch processing and effortlessly create custom image processing workflows without writing a single line of code. With the ENVI Modeler, you can also run processing in the cloud with the click of a button. Learn more >
Use ENVI Modeler to effortlessly create custom image processing workflows without writing a single line of code.
ENVI geospatial analysis 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. ENVI image processing and analysis software is also accessible via a Python client library.
If you aren’t a programmer, the ENVI Modeler is a visual programming tool that makes it easy to perform batch processing and effortlessly create custom image processing workflows without having to write a single line of code. In addition, if you are an Esri user, you can run your ENVI Modeler workflows in ArcGIS Pro or ArcMap. With ENVI Modeler’s intuitive user interface, you can also run processing in the cloud, or on remote servers, with the click of a button.
For the developer, ENVI image processing and analysis software enables users to write custom tasks using templates that define the input and output parameters required for data processing. These discrete processing tasks are de-coupled from the desktop and can easily be chained together to build custom workflows. A task can be written once and then run on desktop or enterprise environments.
ENVI image processing and analysis software is tightly integrated with Esri’s ArcGIS platform and lets GIS users seamlessly access and analyze imagery to solve critical problems with confidence. ENVI analytics can be accessed from within any ArcGIS environment and results can be displayed directly from ArcGIS Pro, ArcMap or via ArcGIS Online. By extending ArcGIS with ENVI analytics you can derive quantitative, actionable results from remotely sensed data, share them across your organization and use the information to make better decisions, regardless of your experience.
With the integration of ENVI’s task-based analytics into ArcGIS, it is easy to implement all of the advanced ENVI image processing techniques on the desktop or in the enterprise. Additionally, there are automated workflows exposed out-of-the-box in ArcGIS making it easy to deliver expert-level results regardless of image analysis experience.
NV5 has exposed ENVI tasks through a Python client library, ENVI Py, which enables users to access ENVI’s suite of top image processing and analysis tools directly from ArcMap or ArcGIS Pro. Users also have access to out-of-the-box toolboxes for ArcMap or ArcGIS Pro. This suite enables ArcGIS users to take advantage of ENVI’s advanced imagery capabilities where and how they want.
ENVI Modeler helps you perform batch processing and effortlessly create custom image processing and analysis workflows without writing a single line of code. These workflows can be published directly to ArcGIS Pro.
Not only is the volume, variety and velocity of data increasing, but so too is the spatial resolution and temporal cadence. To make informed decisions in a timely manner, you must be able to efficiently and accurately analyze data and geospatial imagery at scale.
ENVI Server lets you run image processing and analysis in parallel or in the background using ENVI desktop and allows you to take advantage of modern hardware. With ENVI Server, you no longer need to wait for ENVI's progress bars to finish before getting to the next step of your workflows. One of the best features about ENVI Server is that it is free to anyone who has access to ENVI 5.6 or newer. There is no additional fee, license or module that you need to purchase to use ENVI Server.
You can also use ENVI as a client to ENVI Server – meaning that, any machine with ENVI Server and access to the same data as your local ENVI session, can accept processing from ENVI. You can use the ENVI Modeler or ENVI dialogs to send processing to ENVI Server. This allows you to keep using ENVI geospatial image processing and analysis software the same way that you always have to easily take advantage of the power of ENVI Server.
ENVI Server is a great way to try out automated image processing. But if you need to process large volumes of data you should take advantage of the cloud. Using the cloud enables processing to scale up and down according to needs but it can be complex to implement and maintain.
The ENVI Inform cloud platform utilizes the scalability and access offered by cloud processing and makes it easy to deploy and run workflows you have created with the ENVI API or the ENVI Modeler (write once and deploy anywhere). ENVI Inform can scale to process and analyze any amount of data, and deliver geospatial products and insights to decision makers.
