The widespread use of global navigation satellite systems (GNSS) has made possible to identify the dangers of its use. In the merchant shipping GNSS are only positioning device and any its interruptions becomes high threat to the safety of navigation. A solution to the problem by using celestial navigation is proposed. A new method for measuring the height of a celestial body based on processing of a digital photograph of the sky is considered. Mathematical models and computational algorithms for photos processing are described, and the results of their testing with imitation examples are presented..
