Abstract
Systems and methods for determining the position of a device or vehicle by using celestial information captured by an imaging apparatus. The systems and methods identify a star set in the celestial information, generate a star set fingerprint and compare the star set fingerprint with reference celestial information. Once a comparison is made, the location of the device or vehicle can be determined and used within a celestial navigation system.
