VLBI is at present the most accurate technique for measuring radiosource positions and the only method capable of high precision for a reasonable number of sources. The applications of VLBI astrometry in stellar, Galactic and extra-Galactic regimes are reviewed.

Observational Data and Orbits of the Asteroids Discovered at the Baldone Observatory in 2008–2013
The paper presents statistics of the asteroids observed and discovered at the Baldone Observatory, Latvia, in 2008–2013 within the project for astrometric observations of the near-Earth objects (NEOs), the main belt asteroids and comets. CCD observations

Astrometric detection of exoplanets from the ground
Astrometry is a powerful technique to study the populations of extrasolar planets around nearby stars. It gives access to a unique parameter space and is therefore required for obtaining a comprehensive picture of the properties, abundances, and ...

Astrometry with Schmidt Telescopes [PDF]
Photographic astrometry, including work with Schmidt telescopes, can be divided into two main fields, (i) the measurement of positions of objects relative to a reference frame of stars with known celestial coordinates, and (ii) the measurement of relative proper motions and trigonometric parallaxes from a series of plates taken on the same field.

Multi-wavelength differential astrometry of the S5 polar cap sample
We report on the status of our S5 polar cap astrometry program. Since 1997 we have observed all the 13 radio sources of the complete S5 polar cap sample at the wavelengths of 3.6 cm, 2 cm and 7 mm. Images of the radio sources at 3.6 and 2 cm have already

Discovery, Observational Data and the Orbit of the Amor Group Asteroid 2010 BT3
A project devoted to astrometric and photometric observations of asteroids at the Molėtai Observatory is described. One of its most important results is the discovery of the asteroid 2010 BT3 belonging to the Amor group of the near-Earth objects.

The 35-km interferometer at NRAO was used at 2.7 GHz during 1974–1979 to determine pulsar proper motions. Observations from each epoch were reduced to pseudo-position vector offsets which include both unknown, and constant, absolute position errors for the pulsars and their reference sources, as well as the time-varying proper motion of the pulsars ...
