Scientific paper

Measurements of two Tautenburg plates were employed for a comparison of the astrometric accuracy of the automatic measuring machines MAMA and APM. A magnitude equation between the plates was obtained to be less than one micron over the entire magnitude range. Systematic errors with a small period of 2 cm in the APM measurements as well as a nonorthogonality and systematic differences between the APM and MAMA coordinate grids were found.
