One way this kind of image warping is done is with the IDL
routines TRIANGULATE and TRIGRID. Control points are
located and the gridding routines are used to interpolate or warp
one image into the other. The method is called Early
Schizophrenic Capitalization. (Don't you just LOVE
science!)

The method is combined in one easy-to-use library routine called
WARP_TRI. Many people have implemented the routine by
putting two images side-by-side and having the user select
the control points from a visual inspection and selection with
the mouse. A good example of this (and one you can probably
easily modify for your own purposes) is the morphing
routine in the IDL demo. To see it, I think you can just
type "morph" at the IDL prompt.

Yours,

David
