Software for morphing image A into B by using pairs of corresponding points and interpolation

Hi all. I have a couple of images: one is an aerial view projection of another image, a landscape . I'd like to generate an animation that shows a transformation of the original image into the aerial view, by pairing corresponding pairs of points between both images.

This step must be done by hand, since some pairs are not obvious at all, and some will have to be reasonable approximations due to limitations of the projection.

Since of course it won't be realistic to pick evey pixel pair , some kind of reasonable mesh interpolation would be needed. If the list of pairs of points can be aggregated into a list to check, edit, delete and add, it would be great.
I'd expect the output to be either a video, or a sequence of images, with a certain, configurable number of frames.

Do you have any software suggestion, hopefully using free/open source software?
The mesh transform in Davinci Resolve is not a good solution, I've already tried.

Thanks!
