At its heart, this is straightforward mechanics using precision measurements of the tangential motion of a statistically large sample of bright stars in Andromeda, as opposed to trying to track every single star in Andromeda (impossible of course), combined with radial motion easily measured by the Doppler shift on spectral lines. We know how to do this.
There are three separate papers that have been accepted for publication in The Astrophysical Journal but haven't appeared yet. Let's see what they say.
