Have you looked at ROT.

Cheers,

ROT will rotate the image, but I think his question is about a procedure
to automatically determine the correct rotation angle, given a
unrotated reference image.

I don't have code to do this myself, but I know there are techniques
based on Fourier transforms that do this in addition to determining
the image shift. Maybe one of these will get you started:


"Fourier-Based Image Registration Techniques"
http://www.censsis.neu.edu/hstone_fourier.pdf

"An image registration technique for recovering rotation scale and
translation"
http://www.cs.brown.edu/people/morgan/papers/(McGuire%2098)%20Registration.pdf

B. S. Reddy and B. N. Chatterji, "An FFT-based technique for
translation, rotation and scale-invariant image registration," IEEE
Trans. Image Processing, vol. 5, pp. 1266--1271, Aug. 1996.
(I can't find this online but it was referenced from a few papers which
were...)
