Case Study Shows +20% Efficiency Gains With New Information Visualization Technology

Integration of Pliable Display Technology into Boeing Autometric products results in significant productivity increases for forward-looking Boeing Autometric customer

VANCOUVER, British Columbia - August 28, 2002 � Case study results are in on the integration of IDELIX� Software Inc.�s Pliable Display Technology (PDT) with Boeing Autometric�s SoftPlotter� 4.0 and KDSP� 1.2 applications and the results are extremely positive for both IDELIX and Boeing Autometric. Atlantic Air Survey Ltd., a geographic information technology firm, has reported efficiency gains of at least 20% in their data editing and collection process.

"Atlantic Air Survey Limited has been using Boeing Autometric's new stereo PDT lensing capability in SoftPlotter 4.0 and KDSP 1.2," reports Paul Lumsden, President of Atlantic Air Survey Ltd. "We have found that the increased functionality in using the stereo lensing option has made a significant contribution to our production process. The real-time zoom option enables us to edit and collect data concurrently resulting in a time savings of at least 20%. This approach has proven to be especially useful when editing contours and DEM data and performing quality control tasks."

Pliable Display Technology from IDELIX is a visualization technology that addresses the challenge of viewing high-density data sets and images on a limited size screen display. Integrated into the spring 2002 releases of Boeing Autometric�s photogrammetric production solutions SoftPlotter 4.0 and KDSP 1.2, the PDT lens enables photogrammetrists to perform vector collection and quality control tasks more efficiently by magnifying a portion of the imagery under the lens in real time. This allows the close-up view of imagery beneath the lens while maintaining a connected overview of imagery surrounding the lens, thereby facilitating navigation and editing within the imagery without the need for zooming in and out.

"Labor represents a very large percentage of the overall operations costs for our customers, so a 20% labor eduction translates to a significantly improved operating margin and competitive advantage," said Todd Ham, Product Manager at Boeing Autometric. "Simply put, the productivity gains achieved as a result of using PDT in our software are tremendous."

"The results of this case study are validation for PDT�s effectiveness in increasing end-user productivity when integrated in our customer�s applications," commented IDELIX CEO, Bijan Sanii. "The universal adaptability of PDT means that the productivity gains attained in Boeing Autometric�s photogrammetric applications are fully translatable across many markets and opens significant opportunity for IDELIX Software Inc."

The Atlantic Air Survey case study is available for viewing at www.idelix.com/pdt_atlanticair.shtml, and provides strong support for IDELIX�s mandate to embed PDT within the world's leading software applications. Current market opportunities for PDT include: Geographic Information Systems & Remote Sensing, Handheld and Wireless Devices, Defense, Digital Imaging, Seismic, Electronic Media, Computer Aided Design, Medical Imaging, and Electronic Games.
