Abstract

See full text

A method of controlling a satellite and a computer-readable recording medium are provided. The method is for controlling a satellite moving along an orbit having an inclination angle from the equatorial plane to capture due-north images. The method includes: determining a position of the satellite; calculating a roll angle and a pitch angle of the satellite for pointing a line-of-sight vector of the satellite to a first ground surface being a photographing point; determining a compensation angle by considering effects of the inclination angle and rotation of the Earth so as to capture images in the due north direction of the photographing point; calculating a yaw angle based on the compensation angle; and rotating the satellite according to the calculated roll angle, pitch angle, and yaw angle.
