Consider the following Florida scenario: Company ABC is hired by the county to deliver a digital elevation model (DEM). Company ABC subcontracts Company XYZ to produce a classified point cloud using their Geiger-mode GmAPD LiDAR sensor. Company ABC performs the field work for the control points required to calibrate the point cloud and post-processes the point cloud into the DEM. Company ABC has a licensed professional surveyor and mapper on staff while Company XYZ does not. Can Company ABC certify the DEM to their client? Why or why not?
