Astrometrica is custom made for asteroid work, but, depending on your accuracy 
requirements, it may be helpful.
You can only achieve sub-arcsecond positional accuracy with starlike images, so 
that wont work with satellites, but you can still get the ra and dec of every 
image pixel. This may be good enough.
