INTERGRAPH EMBARKS ON GEOMATICS

HUNTSVILLE, Ala., July 17, 1995 -- Intergraph Software Solutions today
announced the merger of its AEC and UMSD divisions to create a single
division under the leadership of Executive Vice President Larry Ayers.
"This new division has the critical mass and improved efficiency to
continue to strengthen our product offering of utilities, mapping, GIS,
civil engineering and buildings applications software. A strong synergy
exists between these applications, and the new division will place
emphasis on workflow integration between technical applications and office
automation products, " said Tommy Steele, president of Intergraph Software
Solutions.

The change occurred as a direct response of the market pressure for
providing a fully integrated range of software for Geomatics, i.e.
complementary disciplines for handling spatial information. "No longer is
GIS required as an isolated tool. Users around the world are demanding
that GIS be integrated within the context of a global information system,
including a number of complementary disciplines such as geodetic sciences,
imaging, facility management, civil engineering, urban landscape and map
scanning," said Larry Ayers.

The consolidation of AEC and UMSD will allow Intergraph to optimize its
offering and provide the best workflows for the production, analysis, and
presentation of spatial data. Civil engineering and facility management
software will complement the existing broad range of Intergraph mapping
and GIS software. This merger enables Intergraph to position itself as the
sole worldwide provider of advanced Geomatics solutions.
