Abstract

Systems and methods are provided herein that can include capturing a plurality of images of a document, analyzing the plurality of images to identify a plurality of acceptable portions within the plurality of images, combining the plurality of acceptable portions to generate a composite image of the document, and transmitting the composite image to a depository. Additionally or alternatively, the systems and methods can include capturing an image of a document, identifying a designated portion of the captured image of the document that fails to satisfy a predetermined image quality criteria, recapturing an image of only the designated portion of the document, generating a composite image from the captured image of the document and the recaptured image of only a portion of the document, and transmitting the composite image of the document to a depository via a communication pathway.
