There seem to be some real imaging wizards around here ( you know who you are wink.gif ) and since my mosaicing skills can be summarized as: put one image next to the other, I wanted to ask you guys if you know of some good tutorials / tools on the subject.

For years now I have been trying to make mosaics out of Galileo images. There are many, many, many images that haven't been released on the 'general public' sites. Unfortunately the images do not align very well without projecting them properly. sad.gif (see attached image)

I'd appreciate some pointers. cool.gif

Thing is - with orbiter imagery - it's not particularly valid to use something like Panotool etc - because it's not a panorama from a fixed camera. The camera's moving. Quite quickly - and infact the camera probably isnt changing it's pointing at any point in that series of images at all.

When that's the case, I'm affraid photoshop is probably your best answer - unless you use one of the panorama programs to reproject the image using the focal length and f.o.v. of the galileo camera which may give you something slightly easier to align!
