The present work has been performed to study in
detail the Epson Expression 10000 XL scanner for
photographic archive collection of the Ulugh Beg
Astronomical Institute (UBAI) of the Uzbekistan
Academy of Sciences. The specially developed
software in the LINUX/MIDAS/ROMAFOT was used to
process the plates. The test plate was digitized
with grayscale 8 and 16 bits with different
resolutions of the scanner. Astronomical and
photometric parameters were obtained from the
plate and an assessment of the accuracy of the
developed method for determining rectangular
coordinates and photometry, the repeatability of
astrometric and photometric errors of the
scanner for the digitized resolutions were
processed.
