Currently, there are a number of works focusing on the study of the geodynamic situation near the large reservoirs. These studies cover many areas of research from geodynamic models of the Earth's crust and geodynamic activity of water reservoirs (e.g. lakes) to dynamics of the Earth's rotation and oil deposits. This paper presents a new method of analyzing the geodynamic situation near the large reservoirs. As an example, the geophysical conditions near Kuybyshev are determined using the method and data on latitu...

As known, all GIS (geographic information system) coordinate systems tied to the dynamic coordinate system. In this paper, the method of determining the orientation of the dynamic coordinate system in relation to the HCRF (Hipparcos Celestial Reference Frame) system is described. The lunar occultation observations (LOO) were used for this purpose. The photoelectric method of recording an LOO that allows obtaining LOO moment with an accuracy up to 0.001s (i.e. 100 times more accurately than by visual method) is the...

This paper focuses on the creation of accurate methods for analyzing star catalogues. The method is based on the multifactorial comparison between coordinates and proper motion from the catalogs studied and the Hipparcos Celestial Reference Frame (HCRF). The HCRF system has been considered the astronomical standard by IAU. Therefore, in this paper HCRF is used for assessing the accuracy of modern star catalogues. The method allows the use of different catalogue epochs at the standard equinox. The stellar digital c...
