Abstract
A target measuring apparatus includes: an image capturing unit configured to capture a picture image of a target output from a target supply unit; a moving unit configured to move at least a part of the image capturing unit; and a control unit configured to perform a first process of updating information on a coordinate system in the picture image based on an amount of movement of the image capturing unit by the moving unit, and a second process of measuring a parameter of the target based on the image captured by the image capturing unit and the information on the coordinate system. Updating the information on the coordinate system can calibrate a deviation of a measurement result of the target due to movement of the image capturing unit.
