I suppose what is meant here is orientation as a compass would provide it. If you had a precise compass, you could use it's readings with successive shots as yaw values, and you'd even gain a reference which you could use to augment your panorama with artifical vistas or metadata. Sadly, though, the cheap earth magnetic field sensors I know of available are - not very precise - not foolproof (tilt!) - sensitive to other magnetic fields If, on the other hand, you use, like, a gyroscope, you can set it up in relation to a reference coordinate system. You then receive yaw, pitch and roll values for every orientation relative to the reference coordinate system. But such sensors are expensive.
