Pictometry Rejects GEOSPAN Claim

ROCHESTER, NY – March 28, 2008 – Pictometry International Corp., a leading provider of geo-referenced aerial image libraries whose patented and proprietary technology is used globally to capture oblique image libraries, expressed strong disappointment at the recent filing of an action by GEOSPAN Corp. against Pictometry claiming patent infringement.

Pictometry’s patent considerably predates GEOSPAN’s. “We had contacted GEOSPAN several months ago to express our concern that their products may incorporate technology covered by our patent,” said Richard Kaplan, President and CEO of Pictometry. “Instead of participating in productive discussions on the topic, GEOSPAN’s reaction was to file suit. We find their adversarial stance particularly disappointing in light of the fact that we tried to initiate open discourse.” Kaplan continued, “that said, Pictometry is committed to actively and aggressively defending its proprietary technology and is confident it has meritorious positions in this matter.”
