Abstract
High precision of mapping camera boresight directly affects the positioning accuracy of geographical location and photogrammetry. Although it can fulfill the request of good performance for unobscured TMA optical system, which adopted computer aided alignment method, single lens was unobscured which unable ascertain boresight by using lens centering technology, and boresight is randomicity as a result of compensating relation of multivariables. A novel method using the measurement of theodolite space intersection was proposed to rapidly and high accurately complete establish the relation between boresight and a cube in precision alignment stage, simultaneously, the relation of component deflexion and boresight have been simulated by computer model reverse optimization. Thus, the image quality and precision of boresight was effective operated according to the request of satellite assembly.
