===NEXTMap<sup>®</sup>===
In 2002, Intermap commenced its NEXTMap program, which is focused on collecting and processing 3D digital elevation datasets for entire countries, including the United States<ref>[http://www.airphotousa.com/Aboutus/PressRelease/033010/airphoto_intermap.html "Intermap to Map Continental USA to 1-Meter Accuracy, Including Elevation; Launch of ‘NEXTMap USA’ Now" Underway.] Airphoto USA. October 29, 2003.</ref> (due for completion in 2009), countries in Western Europe<ref>[http://www.geoconnexion.com/geo_online_article/Intermap-Technologies-completes-NEXTMAP-Europe/234 Intermap Technologies Completes NEXTMap Europe] GeoConnexion International. July 25, 2008</ref> (completed in July 2008) and Southeast Asia. In contrast to historic mapping [[business model]]s in which customers pay for the completion of specific mapping projects, Intermap is self-financing the NEXTMap program. The company then sells the use of its data through [[License agreement|licensing agreements]].
===Technology & Applications===
Intermap's NEXTMap data is used in commercial applications, including:
* [Geographic_Information_System|Geographic Information Systems] (GIS)
* [Engineering] and [Infrastructure|infrastructure] design
* [Global positioning systems] (GPS)
* Flood modeling and watershed analysis
* [Image_rectification|Image rectification]
* Line-of-sight analysis
* Base mapping
* [3D visualization] and [navigation]
* [Flight simulation]
* [Precision farming] and [forestry]
* [Surface analysis]
* Landslide hazard analysis
* [Internet mapping]
* [Intelligent transportation systems] (ITS)
* Auto safety / Advanced Driver Assistance Systems (ADAS)
