Coler Storage Ring of Heavy Ion Research Facility in Lanzhou (HIRFLCSR) belongs to China great scientific project in China. The alignment for it is very difficult because of very large area and very high accuracy. For the special case in HIRFLCSR, some new methods and new instruments are used, including the construction of survey control network, the usage of laser tracker, and CSR alignment database system with applications developed to store and analyze data. This paper describes the whole procedure of CSR alignment.
