Good Afternoon All

Dan Widner recently sent an email about a memo regarding changes to the
VBMP Data license Agreement. The memo about changes to the license is
available at:

http://www.isp.virginia.gov/geopdf/VBMP_License_Restate_Sept2007.pdf.

In this document you will see that localities are empowered as "agents"
to distribute the imagery for their jurisdiction using the pricing
guidelines established by VGIN. The pricing document is now available
for your use. You may find it at:

http://www.isp.virginia.gov/geoxls/JurisdictionalPrice_06_07.xls

There are two sections to this document. The top portion includes prices
for imagery for an entire jurisdiction. The bottom section lists prices
for small numbers of individual tiles. You will find that the prices are
established to make small numbers of tiles affordable but for the person
wishing to purchase large numbers of tiles, it quickly becomes more
economical to purchase the entire jurisdictional set. It may make sense
to create a small number of jurisdictional DVD sets, as inventory, if
you anticipate many sales.

Please remember that any funds collected by a jurisdiction for imagery
sales are retained by the jurisdiction. Any requests for data outside of
your area should be forwarded to the relevant jurisdiction.

For the most part, VGIN will refer data sales requests to the relevant
jurisdiction. Should you not wish to distribute data, VGIN can
distribute the data for you. Of course, we will retain the funds for any
orders that we fill.

Feel free to contact me if you have any questions.
