Abstract

Automatic image splicing with metadata retention is disclosed. An image is retrieved from an image repository and checked for missing or invalid pixels. Additional images are retrieved from the image repository based on the missing or invalid pixels. Valid pixels from the additional images are used to replace the missing or invalid pixels in the original image. The resulting spliced image is complete. Metadata from all images represented in the spliced image are included in a metadata lineage associated with the spliced image.
