Dear T.V.,

The past month has been an exciting time for Intergraph and our
customers. The GeoSpatial World conference in Miami was buzzing with 20
percent more attendees than previous years, representing 55 countries.

The conference hosted the first Intergraph Education Symposium. Professor
Michael Goodchild^Òs keynote started the day to a packed room and was
followed by diverse international presentations on open standards,
international problem-based learning, hurricane tracking, and more. The
afternoon session began with a keynote from Professor Mauro Salvemini on
the challenges and vision of European research, followed by the Education
Network discussion that provided insight into future educational
activities.

Best Practice and Poster Competition Award winners received their prizes
on stage from President Preetha Pulusani ^Ö read on for more details.

GeoSpatial World was also the forum to launch the new Intergraph image.
Intergraph has seen significant changes in recent years, and the updated
corporate identity is representative of the company's future vision,
mission, and core values. More information is below.
