Imagis Technologies to Provide Another California Police Department with Computerized Arrest and Booking System

VANCOUVER, British Columbia--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Dec. 11, 2002-- Pleasant Hill Police Department to become Imagis' 50th Law Enforcement Customer in California

Imagis Technologies Inc. ("Imagis") (OTCBB:IGSTF) (TSX:NAB) (Germany:IGY), a leading developer of law enforcement software and biometric systems using advanced facial and image recognition technology, announced today that the Pleasant Hill Police Department of Contra Costa, CA has purchased a site license of Imagis' CABS(TM) Computerized Arrest and Booking System. The agreement will also see Imagis' CABS system integrated into the Records Management System (RMS) of Data911, one of Imagis' premier business partners for the public safety market. Pleasant Hill's purchase brings to 50 the number of California-based public agencies that are using Imagis' software.

Imagis' CABS solution is an integrated offender management system that features traditional arrest and booking functionality with additional, pre-integrated modules that enhance the investigative process. This includes easy integration with Imagis' ID-2000(TM) advanced biometric face and image recognition technologies or integration with Imagis' Integrated Justice System(TM), a regional information sharing solution that facilitates data and image sharing between disparate databases.

"We have been proud to work with Data911 on this and many of our other installations in the California law enforcement and public safety markets," says Iain Drummond, President & CEO. "With 50 police department and law enforcement agencies using our software in California alone, we are rapidly approaching the point of broad public adoption of Imagis technology."
