In-flight geometric calibration technique and software were developed for MSU-201 and MSU-202 cameras of the Multispectral Satellite Imaging System (KMSS-M) on board Meteor-M No. 2 satellite. The push-broom CCD cameras have a resolution of 60 m in three spectral bands of 0.535–0.575, 0.63–0.68 and 0.76–0.90 μm. The calibration is performed using a bank of ground control points (GCP) that is being developed on the basis of geo-referenced Sentinel images with the resolution of 10 m in the spectral bands similar to KMCC-M bands. The calibration is demonstrated using KMSS-M images of Aegean and Black sea shore, where from 287 to 714 GCP were recognized depending on channel and camera. The maximal GCP number were recognized in 0.76–0.90 μm channel, the minimal — in 0.535–0.575 μm channel. As a result, the parameters of the geometric camera model were defined: channel effective focal lengths and distortion parameters, as well as the orientation parameters of the channel reference systems in the auxiliary camera reference system that is fixed in the basic star sensor reference system. The residual GCP root-mean-square deviation from the projection function ranged from 0.23 to 0.42 pixel.
