The method is based on application of two reference points, having the geographical coordinates de fined. The first point was situated high on the sea shore, where also the camera was installed. The second point was intended for use to determine the topocentric horizon plane and it was situated at the water-level. The first section of the Paper contains the definition of space and disposed therein reference systems: connected with the Earth, water-level and the camera system. The second section of the Paper provides a description of the survey system model and the principles of the Charge Coupled Device – CCD array pixel’s coordinates (plate coordinates) transformation into the geographic coordinates located on the water-level. In the final section there are presented the general rules of using the worked out method in the optical system.}, type={Artykuły / Articles}, title={Optical fixing the positions of the off-shore objects applying the method of two reference points}, URL={http://journals.pan.pl/Content/98350/PDF/art5_Naus.pdf}, doi={10.2478/geocart-2014-0005}, keywords={optical navigation, fixing position, land-based positioning}, }
