Conclusion

SUSTAINABLE TOOLS DEVELOPMENT

Total 5-6 Hour $500-$600

Start with guided input process

Multiple step/tool

Copy/paste large amounts of data from multiple files = large room for error

Output graphics a bit too complex, required a great deal of user input

Total 2-3 Hour $200-$300

Start with guided input process

One tool

Ability to see and understand data

Output graphics in a standard format

Total 12-15 Hour

$1200-$1500

Each analysis started from scratch each time

Multiple step/tool

Various Methods for analysis

Output graphics varied from project to

project
