The invention discloses an imaging 
simulation method and 
system for a decimeter-scale 
satellite-borne TDI CCD stereoscopic mapping camera. Stereoscopic images of a commercial 
satellite Worldview-3 which has the highest resolution at present as a 
data source, and a data form of image+ground point is formed through stereoscopic matching 
processing. To acquire the instant imaging face 
irradiance of a TDI CCD is regarded as a core step, an 
orbit, attitude parameters, camera installation parameters, TDI CCD geometric parameters, camera MTF and the like are organically linked up. The multistage dynamic integral 
simulation of the TDI CCD is achieved through 
time domain integral and TDI CCD multistage charge accumulation, and then, the strict 
simulation of 
radiation response and 
linear array image imaging of the camera are achieved. According to the method and the 
system, the 
disadvantage in the traditional imaging simulation that the difference of geometric and 
radiation information corresponding to different vision angles in high-resolution 
satellite stereoscopic imaging is hard to simulate due to the adopting of a single 
data source can be avoided, and the accuracy of simulating stereoscopic mapping satellite images is improved.
