A method for optimizing a flight speed of a remotely-sensed scan imaging platform. The method comprises: selecting a reference point; obtaining a remotely-sensed scan image in a reference point region, and processing data; and optimizing a flight speed of a remotely-sensed scan platform. By optimizing a movement speed of a remotely-sensed movement platform, the method can prevent a geometric dimension of a target in a remotely-sensed scan image from being distorted, so as to obtain a high-precision remotely-sensed image of a ground target; and the method can be used for airborne and satellite borne remotely-sensed images.
