Italy Digital Maps Added to Intermap Technologies’ Geospatial Database

All of the Company’s NEXTMap datasets include uniform digital surface models (1 meter or better vertical accuracy) that depict the earth’s surface (including cultural features such as vegetation, buildings, and roads). These highly reliable datasets also include digital terrain models displaying the bare earth (with all cultural features digitally removed) and orthorectified radar images corrected to remove normal geometric distortions (grayscale and color images that accentuate topographic features).
 
“This month’s delivery of data for Italy follows closely the addition of France to our NEXTMap data library and demonstrates the incredible progress the Company is making on its NEXTMap Europe initiative. We now have geographic coverage representing over 50% of the population for the entire European Union. In a couple of months, we will have Europe complete and will then direct the bulk of our effort on completing the NEXTMap program in the U.S.,” commented Brian Bullock, Intermap Technologies’ president and chief executive officer.
 
Over the coming months, the Company will continue adding entire country datasets to the NEXTMap Europe library until the completion of its NEXTMap Europe program. Data is currently available through the Company’s direct sales team, online via www.TerrainOnDemand.com, or through Intermap’s worldwide partner network.
