Chris, Thanks for your response. For my purpose, the images won't have to be 'perfectly' matched, but hopefully as close as possible. Registration algorithms won't work for this reason--the images aren't identical to each other because of the different perspectives. -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
