Theodolite measurement system is non-contacted 3-dimensional measurement system. The system accuracy is 0.5 mm or better for distance 0 ~ 100 m. And the system is used for the measurement of a product for middle and large scale. This study was performed for finding the measurement error factors of the system. We could know that the main error factors are temperature, illumination and expertness. And we could find the measurement errors are $\pm$ 0.045 mm at temperature conditions is 2$0^{\circ}C$ and $\pm$ 0.012 mm at illumination condition is 300 lux. Also the results had significant differences by combinations of operator's expertness.

It is a matter of great importance that the elements of error in measurements be minimized in various surveying methods. It is also essential in photogrammetry to reduce the errors of ground control coordinates as their influence on the accuracy of the results is enormous, especially when the object distance is increased. In this paper, the techniques of surveying and photogrammetry were appropriately combined to obtain three-dimentional coordinates of considerable accuracy. By observing only the related angles with theodolite were obtained to prove its effectiveness. The major advantage of the presented method is its simplicity and accuracy as only the measurements by theodolite is required.

Because satellites operate in space, it is impossible to repair them when they malfunction. Therefore, to ensure the normal function of the payload used in the satellites, accurate assembly and installation of parts are crucial. To prevent abnormal functioning in the extreme environments during launch and in space, it is essential to test changes at the parts and system levels by performing alignment measurement before and after the launch environment test and the space environment test. Recently, noncontact three-dimensional precision machinery for medium- and large-sized parts has been developed. One of these is the theodolite measurement system, which is widely used in the aerospace industry. This study measures the angle of the dual thruster module that is used to control the attitude of KOMPSAT by using a theodolite, and alignment measurement and a reliability analysis are performed.

In this research, the operational principle and the internal algorithm of theodolite measuring systems are studied and coded for a new software, and the feasibility of the laser system for the above mentioned usage is studied by simulation set-up of the system in the laboratory environment, and for the theodolite system modules for the communication between theodolite and computer is implemented, the data collection and storage, the simultaneous photogrammetric ' bundle ' adjustment for the theodolite position and the target points are coded, compiled and tested. for the simulation set-up of the laser system extensive studies on laser sources and laser detectors are performed, the system composition for the system simulation in the laboratory environment is studied and implemented, and the beam fluctuation due to the environmental changes in the course of the laser beam, such as changes in current of wind or in temperature is experimented. According to Experiment on the Source of 17 meters interval and the Detector, Laser beam is almost doesn't depend on air How, but it is effected by variations of temperature and light. Selecting cloudy day and time without change of temperature, it was realized that it is possible to perform deformation measurement more than approximately 2mm precision.precision.

A measurement of spacecraft alignment is an important process of spacecraft assembly, integration and test. Because, it is necessary that a operator of a ground station controls the precise positions of on-orbit spacecraft by using the alignment data of attitude orbit control sensors(AOCS) on spacecraft. And, an accuracy of spacecraft alignment requirement is about $0.1^{\circ}{\sim}0.7^{\circ}$. A spacecraft alignment is measured by autocollimation of theodolite. This paper describes the measurement principle and method of spacecraft alignment. The result shows that all the AOCS on the spacecraft are aligned within the tolerance required through the alignment measurement.

The longitude and latitude of the Kongju National University Observatory was determined by using TM-1A theodolite and GPS(model: 4000SSI, GPS 45). In the observation using theodolite TM-1A observed the meridian transit time(KST) and meridian altitude of the 2 stars, ${\alpha}$ Aur and ${\alpha}$ Boo. In the observation using GPS measured the longitude and latitude by receiving data of 6 GPS satellites. The longitude and latitude of the Kongju National University Observatory was determined to 127$^{\circ}$8'33'.16 and 36$^{\circ}$28'14'.20, respectively.

Accurate alignment between high-performance payloads and attitude control sensors is essential factor to guarantee accurate attitude orientation and high pointing stability of the satellite. Space craft developers often use theodolite measurement system for satellite alignment during ground AIT(Assembly Integration and Test) phase. When measuring theodolite, errors may occur due to line of sight error, tilting axis error, vertical index error, and vertical axis error. In addition, errors that can occur during alignment measurements with multiple theodolites are analyzed through the alignment cube measurements test. Based on the alignment cube measurements test, a technical method that can improve the alignment measurement accuracy was suggested and it's measurements results satisfied the satellite design requirements.
