SOME BACKGROUND…

Below is a brief discussion about the process of logging in to IMPLAN. For more information about credentials, see How to Reset Your IMPLAN Password.

Who is this tutorial for?

This tutorial is for anybody who doesn’t know how to log in to IMPLAN. Brand new to IMPLAN and have never logged in before? Don’t worry, it’s crazy easy. Follow THE STEPS herein and you’ll be running analyses in no time.

Why is this process important?

Every single user is required to log in to IMPLAN each time they use the software. New users? Longtime users? Yes. And yes. In order for anyone to use IMPLAN, they must first log in. So, before you can start exploring the absolute playground of analytical possibilities inside, you’ll need to log in too.

Do I need anything before I can do this?

Yes. Before you can log in to IMPLAN, you must first have valid and active credentials. Valid IMPLAN credentials consist of two components: a username and a password, both of which are exclusive to each individual user. To acquire a username and password, you must first have an active IMPLAN data subscription. To purchase a data subscription, visit IMPLAN.com or contact us directly at (800) 507-9426.

Will I need to do this often?

Technically, yes. But, IMPLAN makes logging in laughably convenient by offering you the option to let the tool remember your password after you’ve logged in for the first time. This way, every time you find yourself at the Log in screen in the future, just click the big blue LOG IN > button and you’re in!

THE STEPS

The procedure to log in to IMPLAN begins at the Log in screen (see fig. 1) and ends at the IMPLAN Dashboard (fig. 3.b). The instructions below include links to other user’s guide tutorials and/or articles which may prove helpful in the event that you encounter any roadblocks during the course of your analysis. If challenges persist, visit the ADDITIONAL RESOURCES section for a more extensive selection of supplementary material.

END OF PROCEDURE

WHAT NEXT?

IMPLAN is designed to allow for analyses to be launched or resumed from multiple points of entry. So, you can choose to start or continue your studies from whichever stage best fits your needs—your process doesn’t have to be linear! However, if you’re brand new to IMPLAN and need some guidance, or would just prefer some professional advice, we’re happy to offer our suggestion about what to do next.

WHAT WOULD IMPLAN DO?

If you’re performing your very first impact analysis, then after logging in to IMPLAN, we suggest becoming familiar with the IMPLAN Dashboard. The IMPLAN Dashboard is a streamlined location from which you can visit many of IMPLAN’s most important screens and serves as a “hub” from which to launch or resume studies in the tool. If you feel like familiarizing yourself with the IMPLAN Dashboard is the right “first step” for your study, the resource below may help you become comfortable maneuvering it.
