We will devoted this session to the astrometric analysis of CCD images obtained during the observing sessions of the two previous midnights(*). We will explain the process to apply to get calibrated the images, then to apply stellar astrometry, identify the moving objects and to get the celestial coordinates of these objects. The students will apply the process to their images and will be able to compare each other, and to compare with theoretical positions for known objects.
(*) In case of unsucessfull observations, already registered CCD images will be provided for this training.
