"Intergraph is pleased to partner with IQ Biometrix
and views their FACES software as an integral addition
to our Video Analyst system," said Gene A. Grindstaff,

to help identify and apprehend criminals. Eventually, we'd
like to fully integrate FACES with Video Analyst."
Rajesh

Analyst are like two sides of the same coin. Video Analyst
is a leader in analyzing
