David, 

are you sure that the projection of your image matches that on the underlying 
base maps?  Sounds to me like one is on British National Grid, and the other is 
on Long & Lat

Subject: MI-L Image Registration


All,

I am having unexplained and inexplicable problems trying to register a
scanned raster image to the British National Grid coordinate system. I have
registered it several times with a variety of different control points at a
number of different locations and each time when I view it the vector
coastline data that I am using to register the image gets distorted and the
UK gets a nasty backward lean!!! I haven't had this problem before (except
when I have made obvious mistakes) and I have successfully registered two
other images (for Devon)...its just Cornwall does not want to conform!

Can anyone shed any light on this...please?

Best regards
