Abstract
The paper presents a method for processing positional observations of near-Earth objects using a numerical model of satellite motion developed at the Research Institute of Applied Mathematics and Mechanics of Tomsk State University (NII PMM TSU). The root-mean-square error of orbit improvement without rejection of observations for such objects does not exceed 0.3″ over a seven-day time interval. The results of the presentation of observations for the next occurrence of the object are obtained, which makes it possible to find the object in a time interval of five months. The orbit has been refined in the joint processing of measurements on several occurrences of the object over a six-month time interval. All results were obtained from observations made on the equipment of the Terskol Observatory Shared Use Center.
