This origin is saved in the point cloud as well using the tag
``POINT_OFFSET`` in the GeoTiff header. To output point clouds using
double precision with the origin at the planet center, call
double precision with the origin at the planet center (ECEF), call
``stereo_tri`` with the option
``--save-double-precision-point-cloud``. This can effectively
double the size of the point cloud.
