The local entity that should have been referred to in the article is Underhill & Underhill – a partnership of Land Surveyors and Engineers, founded in Vancouver, BC, Canada, in 1913. Underhill Geomatics Ltd. is wholly-owned by the partners of Underhill & Underhill, and is the entity responsible for the products/services examined in the article.
