A CsI(T1) scintillation detector with a two-dimension position-sensitive photomultiplier readout at RIBLL is developed. The position resolution of the detector was obtained with RIB 17N, and the performance of detector was simulated by using GEANT4. The simulation results accorded with the experimental ones. The reflection factor of the aluminum foil outside the scintillator plays an important role on the position resolution.
