The control networks of the satellites of Uranus

The present photogrammetric derivation of control networks for the five Uranus satellites Miranda, Ariel, Umbriel, Titania, and Oberon, on the basis of Voyager 2 images, covers the illuminated southern hemisphere of each satellite and respectively yields 103, 52, 43, 46, and 34 coordinate points. It is found that Titania is ellipsoidal, with 241-, 235-, and 232-km radii.In addition, mean radii are determined to be 579 km for Ariel, 586 km for Umbriel, 790 km for Titania, and 762 km for Oberon. Some of the control points used have been identified on the U.S. Geological Survey maps of these satellites.
