Italy`s National Mapping Agency Purchases Digital Elevation Mapping Data from Intermap Technologies

Istituto Geografico Militare Italiano Acquires Accurate Elevation Models for
One-Third of Italy
DENVER & MUNICH--(Business Wire)--
Intermap Technologies today announced it has delivered 100,000 square kilometers
of 3D digital elevation data to the Istituto Geografico Militare Italiano
(IGMI), a national institution delegated to provide the Italian government with
digital cartography and integrated feature data.

This most recent delivery to the IGMI reinforces the value of Intermap`s
proactive creation of elevation data across Italy under the Company`s NEXTMap
Europe program. Before the completion of NEXTMap Europe, organizations were
forced to settle for outdated, inaccurate, and non-uniform digital elevation
data, or had to rely on expensive custom data collection efforts, to meet their
needs.

IGMI is using the NEXTMap elevation data to improve the national geospatial data
infrastructure in Italy. The decision to acquire NEXTMap data was based on the
success of the Torino 2006 IFSAR elevation mapping project. Covering 5,600
square kilometers of the Piemonte region, that project included some of
northwestern Italy`s most varied terrain, including the three most challenging
environments to model - high alpine, lowland floodplain, and urban. The extreme
differences in elevation, from mountain areas in the Alps to deeply incised
river valleys, provided a serious test of the integrity of data collection and
processing systems. The project earned Intermap top honors in the Photogrammetry
/ Elevation Data Generation category at the Management Association for Private
Photogrammetric Surveyors (MAPPS) Geospatial Products and Services Excellence
Awards in 2007.

"We are pleased to expand our relationship with the IGMI beyond the initial
program we performed in 2005 as the country prepared for the Torino Olympics,"
stated Adam Denman, Intermap`s vice president & general manager, Europe. "IGMI
performed rigorous testing on the data we previously supplied and was so
satisfied with the quality of the NEXTMap data that it chose to acquire this
additional dataset. As we have now added the remainder of the Western European
countries to our data library, Intermap continues to see a trend of customers
recognizing the value that NEXTMap datasets provide."
