Abstract: The paper presents a description of the developed technique for monitoring of the mirror positions of the Imaging Atmospheric Cherenkov telescopes based on the Bokeh method. The telescopes are part of the experimental complex TAIGA, located in the Tunka valley (Republic of Buryatia, Russia), 50 km from Lake Baikal. The results of the analysis of CCD-camera images to determine the position of mirror segments are presented.

Keywords: TAIGA-IACT, Bokeh method, gamma astronomy, mirror monitoring.
