System Improves Production Throughput by Eliminating Film Processing
and Scanning

Intergraph (NASDAQ: INGR) Mapping and Geospatial Solutions today
announced Ordnance Survey of Great Britain has purchased Intergraph's
Z/I Imaging(R) DMC(R) (Digital Mapping Camera) system to complete
conversion of its photogrammetric operations into a fully digital

orthophoto and mapping production.com (in Europe) or

And the striking images would be part of many more interior designs if the
cost wasn't so prohibitive -- a single bird from the original 1830s-era
engravings can cost more than $200,000.
