Description:The reduclion of Satellite Triangulation raw (photographic) data and their preparation for analysis is described. The reduction method is closely related to the technique of plate measurement. The operations are carried out by means of three computer programs. The first sets up the framework for identifying images and computes a first approximation to camera orientation. The second program reduces the star and satellite image measurements to a single. consistent, plate-centered system. with comparator and operator biases removed. The third program associates each image with the celestial coordinat.es of the star and the lime of exposure.
