The above characteristics have been validated by the experiments conducted with the two satellite image pairs, 
one from SPOT (B/H ratio 0.75, maximum height difference of 800m) and one from MOMS-2P (B/H ratio 
0.76, maximum height difference of 180m). For a range of different control point configurations, with a modest 
number of GCPs, the affine-based orientation produced ground point triangulation accuracies to sub-pixel level, 
namely about 0.5 to 0.7 pixels.
