| Abstract: |
The building of a 2D-digitizer facility of high geometric and
radiometric resolution and precision, started under the D4A
pilot-project (2002–2005), has been continued during the DI/07 production-project financed by the Belgian Science Policy for the
digitization of the astro photographic archives of the Royal
Observatory of Belgium (ROB), the aerial photographic archives of
the Belgian National Geographic Institute (NGI) and of the Belgian
Royal Museum of Central Africa (RMCA) and the photographic archive
of the Belgian Royal Institute for Cultural Heritage (RICH).
An international collaboration has been set up between the US
Naval Observatory (USNO) in Washington DC, the IMCCE of Paris
Observatory (OBSPM) and the Royal Observatory of Belgium (ROB) to
make a new astrometric reduction of archival photographic plates
of planetary satellites. |
