Comments:

  1. when companies do ROI, it is based on cost-to-produce, and they anticipate an amount in return. Ours: it costs $x to produce, and we give it all away. so no value is really known.
  2. Universities when economic impact for their existence: what methodology do they use?
  3. studies on NSDES - valuation of satellite data (economist with UCAR)
