Initial one-time setup is moderate but can escalate if a dedicated observation chamber or major research campaign is required; main drivers are facilities conversion, research instrumentation, and software/hardware purchases. Annual operating costs are modest under conservative monitoring but rise with continuous staffing, AI subscriptions, and recurring research.
