A quick, reliable and accurate method and device for measuring an
optically reflecting surface, enabling quantifying of the curvatures
and/or slopes and raised parts of the optically reflecting surface
without risk of deteriorating the measured surface and adapted to
measurement of large-dimension surfaces. The system and method for
measuring the geometry of an optically reflecting surface to be measured
S includes observing with a camera (2) the image of the surface to be
measured S set in a measuring space (1), then interpreting the image in
quantitative values characterizing at least one geometric quantity of the
optically reflecting surface to be measured S.
