FEH Web Service credit pricing increased from the 3rd January 2023.
The FEH Web Service was launched in 2015 with a pay-as-you-go charging model replacing the previous FEH CD-ROM upfront three year licence fee. Income generated through the FEH Web Service pays for the maintenance and development of the web service platform itself and is also re-invested into the web service's underpinning scientific research base. Pricing for the FEH Web Service has remained unchanged since launch in 2015, but rose for the first time in January 2023. The increase in pricing reflects the 12 month CPI rate increase at August 2022 of 10% and will be applied equally across all purchasing size bands.
The discounted rate for Educational and Research Use has not increased.
Educational and Research users
A discounted rate is available for Educational and Research Use*. The cost is £150 (excluding VAT) for 1,000 credits (£1.50 per catchment retrieval).
The credits will all be assigned to a single, designated Web Service account.
If you qualify for this offer we will issue you with a licence certificate along with a pro forma invoice for payment — we do not accept credit/debit card payments for Educational and Research Use licenses. The signed licence certificate and payment must be received before the credits are allocated.
Please contact us if you would like to set up an Educational and Research Use account.
* Educational and Research Use means use of the Service for the purpose of teaching and learning, and/or teacher training and which does not involve direct or indirect commercial gain, or for bona fide research to further a body of knowledge, the resulting research papers of which, will be disseminated widely and without delay within the academic community or in the public domain. Such research papers will not be held for the exclusive information or use of the research sponsor or sponsors or in any way restricted from access to the academic community or the wider public.
