Intergraph Announces the Launch of a New Global Division Called IntelliWhere


New division brings industry-proven technology to emerging wireless and location-based services industries

HUNTSVILLE, AL, Dec. 14, 2000 - Intergraph Corporation today announced the launch of a new global division called IntelliWhere(tm) (www.intelliwhere.com). A division of the Mapping and GIS Solutions vertical business, IntelliWhere is a software and solutions infrastructure provider focused specifically on the wireless and location-based service industries.

Viewed as a "killer application" in the mobile-commerce arena, location-based services will have enormous impact in both B2B (business-to-business) and B2C (business-to-consumer) markets. IntelliWhere is positioned to be a leading player in this rapidly expanding market space, estimated by the Strategis Group to grow to US$3.9 billion by 2004.

IntelliWhere's lead product, IntelliWhere Genie, enables customers to provide real time, location-based services and content, using an architecture that builds on an impressive pedigree of Intergraph's GeoMedia technology to deliver device and data format independent solutions. IntelliWhere Genie solutions are open, scalable and proven in large-scale deployed applications.

IntelliWhere Genie offers IT, Telecommunications and Corporate Enterprises a leading-edge location-based services development environment. IntelliWhere Genie combines advanced location-based functionality with an open, industry-standard software development architecture. IntelliWhere Genie will revolutionize the global location-based services marketplace with its superior data access and integration capabilities, unmatched ease-of-use and productivity, and support for open standards.

"The IntelliWhere team has built on Intergraph's industry-proven core GIS technology, GeoMedia, to deliver IntelliWhere Genie, a location-based services solution that is highly differentiated from other offerings in the market - it is device independent and data format independent," said Lee Finniear, director of the IntelliWhere Division. "IntelliWhere combines its unique solutions with an established global infrastructure and industry partnerships. As a result, we are able to rapidly deploy this technology for customers around the world so they can capitalize on the wireless and location-based services phenomenon."

Preetha Pulusani, executive vice president of Intergraph Mapping and GIS Solutions states, "IntelliWhere is a natural next step for Intergraph and reaffirms our commitment to the emerging technologies of wireless Internet and location-based services. We foresee fast growth and a broad audience for this industry, and through the focused and dedicated team at IntelliWhere we will be a key provider for solutions that deliver intelligence - about where you are, wherever you are - using the mobile Internet."
