Abstract

Several astrometric models are tested on entire and limited plate areas to analyze their ability to remove systematic errors from interpolated satellite directions using a rigorous photogrammetric reduction as a standard. Residual plots illustrate the absence or remainder of systematic effects in measured plate coordinates after the astrometric reduction is performed using the method of least squares. Conclusions are made as to what conditions will permit the reduction by astrometric means to achieve comparable accuracies to those of a photogrammetric reduction on the short focal length camera.
