Great !
So Hugin can take lens parameters that sounds good. 
I don't understand define 
horizontal and vertical lines to bias the optimisation. In fact this needs 
to be fully automatic. No GUI / manual interaction at all.just the grid of 
pictures with rather well known only minimally changing relative  locations 
and angles. 
Now the algorithm should optimize the grid by fitting the overlapping 
areas. 
Additional  question: maybe the grid is not really a rectangular grid but 
the colums are slightly shifted up respectively by a known bias. Can Hugin 
handle this or should the pictures be cut by a preprocessor ?
