AbstractThis article presents a new method for observing minor planets. The observation is operated with a photo–electronic imaging devise CCD and a lower latitude meridian circle.The CCD is mainly used except it is during the favourable opposition of the minor planet when the meridian circle is mainly used in this method. The method can improve precision of observation of planetary position and enlarge scope of observation of planetary orbit. Therefore, the measured precision of zero point of stellar coordinate could be increased. The key of succeeding is that more precise result is got using the CCD.The experiment in this article indicates that this method is a good way:While a minor planet and calibration stars locate in the same image of the CCD, the measured precisions of the minor plant areσα = ±0″.03, σ´ ±0″.035;While the minor planet and calibration stars are located in different images of the CCD, the precisions areσα = ±0″.06, σδ = ±0″.08.

In spite of important delays in the initial planning, the full automation of the Bordeaux meridian circle is progressing well and will be ready for regular observations by the middle of the next year. It is expected that the mean square error for one observation will be about ±0.”10 in the two coordinates for declinations up to 87°.
