Scientific paper

The paper examines errors in the snap-exposure method (SEM) connected with the effect of atmospheric turbulence, telescope guidance, and the nonuniformity of the exposure of different zones of the lunar image. It is shown that these errors do not exceed the measurement accuracy (0.2 arcsec). The optimum number of plates for a single night of observation and the maximum acceptable value of lunar exposure in the SEM are determined. A comparison of the SAO and AGK3 catalogs shows that the main error of the method is due to the reference catalog.
