This solution has been conceived to suit the accuracy achievable by the ESA Gaia satellite (launched on December 19, 2013) consistently with the measurement protocol in General Relativity adopted within the RAMOD framework. Aim of this study is to provide a general relativistic tool for the science exploitation of such a revolutionary mission, whose main goal is to trace back star directions from within our local curved space-time, therefore providing a three-dimensional map of our Galaxy. The calculations are performed assuming that the massive bodies of the Solar System move uniformly and have monopole and quadrupole structures. The results are useful for a thorough comparison and cross-checking validation of what already exists in the field of Relativistic Astrometry. Moreover, such an analytical solutions can be extended to model other measurements that require the same order of accuracy as that expected for Gaia.ELETTRONICOenConference paper10.1142/9789813226609_04602-s2.0-85059062099https://www.worldscientific.com/doi/abs/10.1142/9789813226609_04602018mgm..conf.3549CFIS/05 - ASTRONOMIA E ASTROFISICA
