Edit to OP: cmap=map_proj('Cylindrical') should be cmap=map_proj_init('Cylindrical')

David. Although I have read that article and many others of yours, I still need to read them more. They have been very helpful.

Do you start with astronomical FITS images with world coordinates? The IDL Astronomy Library provides truly excellent routines for remapping images with FITS world coordinates.

Craig, I am familiar with the Astronomical Library's good coordinate transform routines like wcssph2xy.pro. Unfortunately, these FITS do not have world coordinates.

The solar images can be found at ftp://diglib.nso.edu/Evans_spectroheliograms/CaK/1988/

Most of the header is just info about the viewing geometry. I used "print, headfits('880110.1555c.fts') and got:
