Sunnyvale, Calif., Jan. 24, 2008 — Trimble (NASDAQ: TRMB) announced today it has acquired privately-held Géo-3D Inc. of Montreal, Canada in an all-cash transaction. Géo-3D is a leader in roadside infrastructure asset inventory solutions. Financial terms were not disclosed.

The acquisition of Géo-3D extends Trimble's portfolio of field solutions to include mobile mapping specific to the transportation and utilities market. Géo-3D's geo-referenced land videography system rapidly documents images and positioning information to catalog roadside infrastructure such as road signs, guardrails, light poles and other assets. With a customer base in Canada, Europe, and the U.S., Géo-3D products are used by service companies collecting geospatial data by photogrammetry and LIDAR as well as state authorities and municipalities involved in supplying geospatial information.

Surface transportation infrastructure is critical to the continued growth of a country's economy. Many transportation programs are expected to be hard pressed to meet the challenges of the future as demands for safety and efficiency grow faster than the available resources. In the U.S. alone, the vehicle-miles traveled is growing twice as fast as the population, and concerns over land use and the environment are driving new approaches to address infrastructure needs. To face these challenges, transportation managers are looking to the benefits of technology to contribute to improvements in the development and maintenance of infrastructure systems.

The acquisition of Géo-3D's mobile mapping solutions augments Trimble's existing positioning solutions by providing exceptional as-built views of infrastructure assets. By automating roadside asset inventory management, transportation and utility organizations can increase productivity throughout the infrastructure?s lifecycle.

"Géo-3D complements our existing Integrated Surveying, Spatial Imaging, Site Positioning, Mapping and GIS, and Mobile Mapping solutions used in the transportation and utilities industries. Our focus is on integrating these solutions to streamline the collection and maintenance of high accuracy as-builts drawings for the transportation, civil engineering, utilities and telecommunications industries," said Ken Spratlin, director for strategy and business development for Trimble. "As part of the Trimble Connected Site model, high accuracy as-builts enable advanced process and workflow integration from the design phase through construction to the subsequent maintenance phase—delivering significant improvements in productivity through the infrastructure lifecycle."

"Géo-3D provides a core competency in roadside infrastructure asset inventory to augment Trimble's portfolio of solutions," said Daniel Desgagne, president of Géo-3D. "The acquisition reinforces our best-in-class technologies and provides us access to Trimble's global resources that we can leverage to enhance our existing organization, and more so, our ability to service our existing and future clients worldwide. We are extremely pleased to be a part of the Trimble family."

Daniel Desgagne and the staff of Géo-3D will join Trimble and operate as part of the Engineering and Construction segment.
