FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Intergraph Announces New GeoMedia 5.0 Product Suite

GeoMedia gives mapping, GIS, and IT professionals the tools, performance, and peace of mind to do their job better than ever

HUNTSVILLE, Ala., May 6, 2002 - Intergraph Mapping and GIS Solutions today
announced its newest GeoMedia(R) products, version 5.0, delivering new levels of
performance, flexibility, and scalability for mapping, GIS, and IT professionals.
GeoMedia technology is broadly implemented in government and commercial enterprises
worldwide. It connects and integrates geospatial and business information
throughout the enterprise and provides tools to develop custom client applications.

The GeoMedia product suite comprises GeoMedia and GeoMedia Professional for the
desktop and GeoMedia WebMap and GeoMedia WebMap Professional (formerly GeoMedia
WebEnterprise) for the Web. In addition, GeoMedia industry products that address
workflow solutions for public works, land information, and transportation greatly
expand the level of functionality provided in the GeoMedia core products. For
detailed product information visit www.GeoMedia5.com.

With this latest release, the enterprise-ready GeoMedia product suite offers
significant features and enhancements spanning the desktop to the Web in the
following areas:

-- Exceptional data access, integration, and analysis tools - GeoMedia's well-known
data server technology now includes more choices by supporting Oracle 9i(TM),
IBM(R) DB2(R), MapInfo 6.5, and AutoCAD 2002 as well as Microsoft(R) SQL Server and
many other common data formats. This capability provides the most robust GIS data
access and integration tools available today and helps maximize the value of an
organization's data.

Powerful spatial analysis tools are a hallmark of GeoMedia. New dynamic query
functions include aggregation, analytical merge, buffer zoning, linear analysis,
and more, making GeoMedia uniquely suited for what-if analyses on the desktop or
over the Web. If a user changes the source data or the parameters of a query, the
query results automatically reflect the changes. Users get the most current data
for their analyses, enabling better decision support.

-- Enhanced map presentation, plotting, and viewing features - Cartographers will
appreciate the enhanced professional desktop tools for creating and labeling grids
and graticules in the layout window. New text placement tools include curved text,
auto-orientation of text to a feature, dynamic leader lines, style overrides
without creation of a new legend entry, user-defined line styles, and conflict
resolution capabilities.

GeoMedia's smartmap presentation tools for the Web have improved with rich text,
multicolor symbols, and raster transparency. A new vector generalization function
ensures that users are creating a map that is appropriate to the client map scale.
This avoids wasting valuable Web bandwidth and time waiting for a map with
superfluous detail. A new Java applet provides an alternative client-side vector
map display technology for customers who prefer a more secure viewing environment.
GeoMedia 5.0 also adds image transparency, supports the ECW (ER Mapper Compressed
Image) format, and enables bulk insertion of raster files.

-- Solid support for industry standard interfaces and data formats - Version 5.0
supports the Web interface initiatives of the Open GIS Consortium (OGC). A
configurable application that demonstrates how to build an OGC Web Map Server (WMS)
site is delivered with GeoMedia WebMap, enabling customers to create their own
OGC-compliant Web site. The GeoMedia 5.0 product suite now runs with the Oracle 9i
Standard Edition, providing a considerable overall price improvement for GeoMedia
customers. 

-- Productivity improvements - The GeoMedia 5.0 product suite provides a boost to
user productivity with improvements including more CAD-like data capture and edit
commands, expanded export options to popular GIS or CAD formats for performing
local analysis or distribution, and enhanced application generation tools for the
Web. In addition, a configurable, ready-to-run Web GIS application increases
performance of large map data files over the Web.

-- Focused industry workflows for public works, land information, and
transportation - New industry-specific workflow solutions significantly expand the
level of functionality in the GeoMedia core products. GeoMedia Transaction Manager
supports all the industry products with its long term transaction and temporal
history workflows.

GeoMedia PublicWorks Manager provides for the creation and maintenance of water and
wastewater systems. GeoMedia Parcel Manager delivers powerful parcel and boundary
maintenance capabilities. GeoMedia Transportation Manager provides linear
referencing system (LRS) maintenance and dynamic segmentation analysis.

Merging traditional GIS with an IT enterprise vision
Unlike other mapping and GIS software, GeoMedia was designed and built from the
start as an open, easy-to-use, and cost-effective platform for enterprisewide GIS.
Version 5.0 reflects the maturity and proven performance of GeoMedia technology,
merging GIS with information technology (IT) and business applications to help
customers meet enterprise and operational goals and to enable seamless data sharing
across an entire organization.

"GeoMedia technology continues to revolutionize the mapping and GIS marketplace,"
said Preetha Pulusani, president of Intergraph Mapping and GIS Solutions. "Version
5.0 reaffirms our commitment to deliver the most robust and efficient geospatial
solutions to meet our customers' business and enterprise requirements.

"With input from our valued users community and partners, we continue to push the
envelope with pioneering technology and open solutions that remove the boundaries
of traditional GIS. GeoMedia 5.0 reflects the technology's maturity, which has led
to broader use and integration of geospatial technology with enterprise business
systems," adds Pulusani. "GeoMedia's open architecture and support for industry
standards offers peace of mind to mapping and GIS professionals who need increased
productivity and to IT professionals who are concerned with industry standards and
cost effectiveness in systems maintenance. This is evident in the breadth and depth
of the new GeoMedia 5.0 product suite, supporting our customers' business goals of
achieving maximum return on investment on their data and business assets."

An effective enterprisewide GIS system should integrate geospatial solutions into
business systems, deploy and share data broadly, and disseminate information in a
timely manner. GeoMedia technology supports the enterprise model with
out-of-the-box solutions as well as flexible tools for customizing solutions for
the desktop, Web, and handheld platforms.

Intergraph Mapping and GIS Solutions continues to make advancements in its software
and services to deliver open, highly productive solutions that provide
uncompromising value to customers. This includes initiatives for improving
interoperability and ease of use; expanding data creation, analysis, modeling, and
management capabilities; and leveraging Web and wireless services. These
initiatives contribute to better solution offerings that apply to numerous market
segments and emerging markets such as location-based services, and create viable
tools and solutions for current issues such as homeland security planning.
