Sumario:The ESO S-3000 measuring machine which was installed in 1974 in the Sky Atlas Laboratory is capable of measuring photographic plates up to 14*14 inch/sup 2/ with a formal accuracy of +or-1 mu m and +or-.02 D in position and density. It is controlled by a 8 k Alpha 16 minicomputer. Software has been written for the ESO-TP HP 2100 computer system, that permits recognition and accurate measurement of stellar and extended images and filtering of plate faults. (1 refs).
