     Cash  Flows for the six  months  ended  March  31,  1996  includes  certain
     reclassifications  to  conform  the  presentation  to that used in the 1996
     annual  report and the current  period.  The  computation  of earnings  per
     common share is based on the weighted average number of shares  outstanding
     plus common stock equivalents as follows (in thousands):

                     Management's Discussion and Analysis of
                  Financial Condition and Results of Operations

     This discussion  contains  certain forward  looking  statements,  primarily
those which discuss the future goals of the Company. There are important factors
that could cause  results to differ  materially  from those  anticipated  in the
forward looking statements including factors which are beyond the control of the
Company. These factors include the competitive  environment such as the entry of
new competitors,  improved  technical  capabilities by existing  competitors and
capacity  utilization  achieved by all competitors.  Market  conditions that may
also affect future results include,  but are not limited to, the competitive and
regulatory  environments  in the  utilities  market,  local tax  collections  by
municipalities and spending levels by local, state and federal governments.

1997 Compared to 1996

Results of Operations:

     Three  Months  Ended March 31, 1997
     -----------------------------------

The Company  implemented  a strategy to
enter the  utilities  facility  data  conversion  market by the  acquisition  of
Intelligraphics  International  ("Intelligraphics")  on December 22, 1995.  This
utility market is competitive  and margins are generally lower than those earned
by the  Company  in its  traditional  markets.  The lower  margins  are  usually
mitigated by the larger  contract size and term and the expected  greater volume
of conversion work to be done in this market. A second acquisition in July 1996,
Westinghouse  Landmark GIS, also contributed to the growth strategy and provided
the  capability to perform  deeds  research tax mapping as opposed to the use of
outside  subcontractors  to perform this work.  This  acquisition  also provided
additional  capacity in the Company's  traditional  photogrammetry and cadastral
markets  as well as an  enhanced  regional  presence  in the east and  southeast
regions of the country.

Sales for the three months ended March 31, 1997 were 50%
greater  than sales for the same  period one year ago.  The  increase  is due to
increased  production and the acquisition of the ASI Landmark subsidiary in July
1996.  Costs  and  expenses  for the three  months  ended  March  31,  1997 also
increased  50% over the same period of the previous  year,  again due  increased
production and the normal costs and expenses of ASI Landmark.  Increased  aerial
photography caused  subcontractor costs to increase to 21% of sales in 1997 from
13% of sales in 1996. Aerial photography is a seasonal  expenditure related both
to the early  stages of new projects and the time of year when leaves are off of
the trees.  The  remaining  components  of costs and  expenses  are in line with
normal  expectations as percentages of sales.  

Interest expense increased 30% in
the three  months  ended  March 31, 1997 over the same period of 1996 due to the
greater term debt balances incurred as part of the ASI Landmark acquisition. 

Net
income (all from  continuing  operations)  for the three  months ended March 31,
1997 was 56%  higher  than  the  same  period  of the  previous  year due to the
increased  sales  described  above.  Earnings per share increased 50%, which was
less than the  increase  in net income  due to the  effect of shares  issued for
stock option exercises and the effect of common stock equivalents on the average
number of shares  outstanding.  

Six Months  Ended March 31, 1997 
---------------------------------

     Net income (all from continuing  operations) for the six months ended March
31, 1997 increased 77% over the first half of 1996.  Increased  production  plus
the effects of the two  acquisitions  caused  sales to increase 73% and earnings
from  operations  to increase  81%.  Salaries  expense  increased 74% due to the
acquisitions and increased production. Subcontractor costs increased 80% due the
greater use of aerial photography  subcontractors in the second quarter. The 72%
increase in general and administrative  expenses was primarily the result of the
acquisitions, increased selling and marketing activity and increased production.
Interest expense was 106% more than the same period of the previous year due the
term debt  incurred as part of the  acquisitions.  Earnings per share  increased
64%,  which was less than the increase in net income due to the effect of shares
issued for stock option exercises and the effect of common stock  equivalents on
the average number of shares outstanding.
<PAGE>
     Cash flows presented on the  Consolidated  Statements of Cash Flows for the
six  months  ended  March  31,  1996 have been  reclassified  from the  original
presentation  in 1996 to conform to the  presentation  in the September 30, 1996
annual report.

     Cash flow provided by operations in the six months ended March 31, 1997 was
$2,124,000  compared to $2,000 in the same six months of the previous year. Cash
flow from operations was improved by normal variations in investment in unbilled
revenues and accounts  receivable.  The Company maintains an open line of credit
to finance the normal  variations in investment in unbilled revenue and accounts
receivable.

Cash flows from  investing  activities  include  the  proceeds  from the sale of
surplus equipment and the expenditures for routine capital equipment  additions.

Cash flow from financing activities consists of the financing of equipment using
capital  leases,  the  scheduled  repayment of debt and  capitalized  leases and
proceeds from the exercise of stock options by employees.  

     The Company's  backlog of contracted work increased to $43,678,000 at March
31, 1997 up 69% from 1996.  The Company's  expansion  strategy has enabled it to
sign  significant  contracts with  utilities  customers as well as municipal and
commercial companies.  Some of these projects are large multiple-year  contracts
which offer the Company the  benefits  of  increased  work but also  subject the
Company to increased risk due to possible  inflation  and/or  changing  customer
expectations.  The Company continues to seek and perform both larger and smaller
projects for future work.

     The Company's  management  believes  that the domestic  market for its data
conversion  services is growing at annual rates of 15% to 20% per year. Over the
next  several  years,  the Company is seeking to more than  double the  market's
annual  growth rates by  capitalizing  on a variety of  opportunities  including
increased  participation in selected  international markets.  Additionally,  the
Company is seeking to develop new products  and services  which could expand its
sales by offering even more  solutions to customer  needs than it does today.  A
third strategy for growth includes acquisitions where opportunities can be found
that meet the Company's criteria for quality,  technology,  personnel and growth
opportunity  and that can be acquired in a manner  that will  contribute  to the
long term success of the Company. There is no assurance that the Company will be
successful  in any or all of these  strategies  and  there  are  business  risks
inherent in seeking growth at these rates. Among the risks faced in successfully
implementing these strategies are the continuing  possibility of new competitors
in the industry,  possible attempts by others to consolidate the industry by the
acquisition  and  combination  of existing  competitors,  and the ability of the
Company's  management  team to manage all of the  elements of a rapidly  growing
business.  There can be  substantial  variation in the short term rate of growth
even if the Company is successful in achieving its longer term growth goals.


<PAGE>
     Liquidity  and  Capital  Resources:  

     Management expects to meet long-term  liquidity  requirements  through cash
flows  generated  by  operations  supplemented  from time to time by short  term
borrowings on a bank line of credit. There was no balance owed under the line of
credit at March 31,  1997 and the line of credit  agreement  was  renewed for an
additional  year with the  existing  bank.  Routine  capital  expenditures  will
usually be financed with term debt and/or capital leases.

     The Company has not committed to significant capital  expenditures at March
31, 1997.

     Management  believes  the line of  credit  combined  with cash  flows  from
operations are adequate to finance ongoing operations.  Management also believes
the Company will be able to finance any  required  capital  expenditures  from a
combination of operating cash flows and new term debt or lease arrangements. The
Company  is  dependent,  however,  upon  its  ability  to  successfully  deliver
acceptable products in order to maintain adequate operating cash flows.

     Other Risk Factors:

     The Company faces,  as do all  businesses,  a wide variety of  increasingly
complex legal, regulatory and compliance requirements.  The Company is not aware
of any  substantial  risk of loss from  product  liability  litigation  nor from
noncompliance with environmental, labor or other laws and regulations.

     The Company has been awarded  several  projects with contract values in the
range of $3 million to $10 million,  usually on a fixed-price basis. While these
projects provide improved availability of work, the projects may extend over two
to four  years.  The  extended  production  period may  increase  the  Company's
exposure to the risk of inflation, changes in customer expectations and customer
funding capabilities.

     The Company has not paid any dividends since its inception, and there is no
intention to pay  dividends in the  foreseeable  future.  Under its present bank
loan agreement,  the Company must obtain the bank's prior written consent should
the  Company  wish to pay a  dividend.  The bank has agreed to not  unreasonably
withhold such  consent;  however,  there is no assurance  that the Company would
receive the bank's consent to pay a dividend.

Part II Other Information
-------------------------

Item 2. Legal Proceedings

     The Company is not a party to any material  pending legal proceeding nor is
its property the subject of a pending legal proceeding.  The Company is involved
in routine litigation from time to time, which is incidental to the business and
the outcome of which is not expected to have a material effect on the Company.
