PlanGraphics' New Xmarc Fire Forms Tool Set Enhances Oracle Web Forms at Port of Rotterdam

Business Wire, June 29, 2004

FRANKFORT, Ky. -- PlanGraphics, Inc. (Pink Sheets: PGRA) recently released a new tool set, called "Fire Forms," for the Xmarc middleware technology. Fire Forms enhances and extends Oracle's new Web Forms architecture by allowing Fire applications to run seamlessly within Oracle Web Forms applications. Fire-enhanced Web Forms take full advantage of Oracle's three-tier Web architecture. The integration with Fire uses the new enhanced JavaBean support provided by Oracle's PL/SQL FBEAN package. Use of PL/SQL triggers and built-ins within the form make possible direct interaction with Xmarc Fire applications. An Xmarc Fire application can also raise events to be handled within the Web Forms environment.

The tool set, now available to any Xmarc licensee as a license extension, was developed for the Port of Rotterdam (Netherlands), which recently migrated its port management system from Oracle Forms to Web Forms. Integrated with the Xmarc Fire spatial tool, this has enabled the Port to Web-deploy its applications, which were previously restricted to stand-alone client-server deployment.

The new Xmarc/Oracle Web Forms integration permits the Port of Rotterdam's existing Forms applications to take advantage of the full capability of the Xmarc Fire spatial engine and to serve a wider client base.
