    HUNTSVILLE, Ala.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--March 7, 2005--

High-precision technology aims to speed and automate processing for imagery data
    Intergraph (NASDAQ: INGR) Mapping and Geospatial Solutions is demonstrating its refined suite of earth imaging solutions for the photogrammetric workflow, today, through March 11, at the American Society for Photogrammetry and Remote Sensing (ASPRS) 2005 annual conference in Baltimore, Maryland. Intergraph end-to-end digital solutions streamline each stage of the photogrammetric project lifecycle from mission planning to data acquisition, project management, measurement and triangulation, data collection, orthophoto generation and enterprisewide image distribution. The solutions speed and automate processing for earth imagery data, thus increasing end user productivity for producing basemaps, digital terrain models and orthophotos.
    During the conference, Intergraph will showcase its Earth Imaging solutions featuring some of the latest enhancements including:

--	The company's TerraShare(TM) client/server solution now offers distributed processing among many computers throughout the enterprise to expedite post processing of just acquired imagery data and orthophoto generation. This increases throughput speeds of batch jobs to dramatically reduce processing times. This is in addition to TerraShare's innovative image management and distribution capabilities.
--	Enhanced ImageStation(R) software capabilities, such as enhanced true orthophoto generation, one-button ortho generation and Photo-T online bundle adjustment, optimize photogrammetric production processes. For example, new Photo-T processing capabilities have been optimized to make aerotriangulation run much faster than before. Other refinements include enhanced point matching for large-scale 12-bit and 16-bit imagery, enhanced Automatic Shadow Point Reduction, additional GPS/INS correction models, Direct Georeferencing and Enhanced Exterior Orientation (EO) Analysis.
--	A technology preview of new stereo feature collection capabilities within ImageStation. Tools for collecting and editing 3D geospatial features directly in a GIS warehouse give users enhanced productivity by eliminating manual import and translation steps. In conjunction with ASPRS, Intergraph is hosting a user group meeting, today, to provide a detailed look at product updates and technology directions.
