A new method for automated coronal loop tracking, in both spatial and temporal
domains, is presented. The reliability of this technique was tested with TRACE 171A observations.
The application of this technique to a flare-induced kink-mode oscillation, revealed a
3500 km spatial periodicity which occur along the loop edge. We establish a reduction in oscillatory
power, for these spatial periodicities, of 45% over a 322 s interval. We relate the reduction
in oscillatory power to the physical damping of these loop-top oscillations
