Radio positional measurements have achieved an accuracy as high as that of optical astrometry, with uncertainties no greater than a few hundredths of an arc second in each coordinate. Declinations and relative right ascensions are determined absolutely. Since the principal sources of systematic error are different for radio and optical astrometry, radio measurements can be useful in the preparation of future fundamental catalogues.
