Stitching images based on fixed coordinates

[phlphil]

I have single jpg images that, when combined, are a full 360° spherical photo. When stitching them with automatic mode in different softwares the results are, of course, sometimes better sometimes worse.

My question would now be if I can somehow define coordinates in a spherical ball, that the pictures are always mapped on to. That would mean I have the pics in a folder, labeled with predefined names and the software that puts them to their fixed position in the sphere, so that I have constant results.

And yes, the images are all the same (focal length, etc) and always taken from the exact same positions and the same time. (I am using a Panono Ball Camera)

Does someone have some idea, if that is possible or how I can achieve this?
