The navigation results obtained by the operational processing of NOAA/AVHRR images at the Center for Regional Satellite Monitoring of Environment of the Far-Eastern Branch of the Russian Academy of Sciences (CRSME FEB RAS) are presented. The navigation method of satellite images created in CRSME FEB RAS allows fully automatic navigation of each image obtained during a full receiving session with pixel accuracy. The developed navigation method is based on the orbital motion model SGP4 (with propagation NORAD TLE telegrams) and a mathematical model of physical image deformation. Pixel navigation accuracy for each image is achieved by computing satellite attitude angles (roll, pitch and yaw) based on ground control points that are automatically defined in an image or forecasting. Transfer of satellite attitude angles calculated by images ground control points is executed at the navigation forecast. The above mentioned images have been received on close satellite orbits in the same direction. The navigation results are presented and discussed for the long series of AVHRR imagery obtained with operational satellites NOAA (-15, -18, -19) from 2009 to 2015 in the CRSME FEB RAS. The comparison with alternative methods navigation results from foreign satellite centers is considered. Outcomes of NOAA/AVHRR automatic navigation can be seen in the RGB image gallery at the CRSME FEB RAS website (http://www.satellite.dvo.ru/gallery/sat_image).
Keywords: NOAA, AVHRR, satellite images, automatic navigation, ground control points, satellite attitude (roll, pitch and yaw), navigation attitude forecasting, close satellite orbits, map projection
