EQuIS EnviroInsite (EQuIS EI) is an easy-to-use, powerful tool for visualization and analysis of environmental and geotechnical data. EnviroInsite is a separate windows application that must be installed on the workstation. EnviroInsite connects directly to an EQuIS database. More information about EQuIS EnviroInsite is available here.
EQuIS EnviroInsite requires an EQuIS EnviroInsite License for each end user. Before using the EQuIS EI functionality, users must add EQuIS EnviroInsite Licenses to the database. These licenses are included in the original EQuIS EnviroInsite purchase, but will require an additional license key. Contact EarthSoft Support for more information on how to obtain an EQuIS EnviroInsite License.
EQuIS EnviroInsite can be used with EQuIS Professional and Enterprise. Where it is used with Enterprise, it is not a requirement for EQuIS Professional to be installed locally. For an Enterprise user to connect to the EQuIS database via EnviroInsite, they must be assigned to an Application Level Security (ALS) role. It is possible for an Enterprise user to have other roles (non-ALS roles), in which case the user could use Enterprise but not Professional/EnviroInsite. The client could create an "EQuIS EI" role that is specific to users who will be using the program. At the very minimum, the ALS role will need INSERT/UPDATE permissions to the ST_LICENSE_USE table and DB_DATAREADER for the EQuIS Database. See below for the complete list of EQuIS tables used by EnviroInsite.
EQuIS EnviroInsite is a 'standalone' installation. The program can be opened directly, using the following application:

The EnviroInsite shortcut button in EQuIS Professional is located on the Decision Support ribbon:

This button may be deactivated upon first connecting to EQuIS. To enable it, click on the license level at the bottom-right of the EQuIS Professional screen (typically Standard upon first logging in), click on the Decision Support tab, and check EnviroInsite. A yellow square will appear in the bottom bar.

The connection to the desired EQuIS Database can also be made after opening EnviroInsite. Select File > Open Database > EQuIS Database (shown below) or press the EQuIS button on the taskbar.
