The direction cosines used in equation 18 are obtained by using
the image coordinate system (Fig.8) and the rotation matrix M.
The direction cosines of a line from the exposure station to the
image point is

The matrix of coefficients in equation 18 is symmetrical and the
solution is obtained from these three linear equations. This
newly developed procedure can be used for any data acquisition
system configuration based on more than two stations.
(ii) Optimisation using Planes
The second method of obtaining the spatial coordinates is based
on optimisation using the planes at the four sides of the quad-
rustational pyramid (Fig.5). However, it should be emphasised
that this method cannot be used for a two-station system.
The general equation of a plane in the system is given by the
following expression:
X-X Y-Y Z-Z
S S, m

Expanding equation 21 we get: A.X + B.Y + C,Z + D, = 0 (22)
