7 DISCUSSION 
In this paper we have shown the theoretical background of circular image blocks estimation. With simulated data we 
have been able to prove the convergency of the system. Further tests will though be required to discover the full 
cabability of this kind of imaging system. Especially in photogrammetric intersection, the potential of this system is 
really worth of investigation. The presented system is one additional tool for photogrammetric measuring systems, 
designed especially for tasks and applications where traditional methods are too unflexible and heavy to be used.
