The history and application of the block adjustment (BA) in the reduction of overlapping photographic plates are reviewed in this paper. The reasons that the anticipated results have not been obtained by this method are analyzed. The new progress in the BA of overlapping CCD frames with small field of view is introduced. Investigation and reduction of CCD frames show that BA can play an important role in the reduction of overlapping CCD frames. In the case of long focal length of telescope and small plate scale, the BA of overlapping CCD frames can enlarge the field of view, cover more reference stars, and consequently improve the local reference frame and the precision of reduction results.
