Abstract

The system described herein relates to a method for generating a composite image of an object using, for example, a particle beam device such as an electron beam device and/or an ion beam device. A composite image is generated by relatively arranging a first sub image to a second sub image such that the first sub image overlaps the second sub image in the entire common region, a calculated first image position of a first marking in the first sub image is arranged on the first image position of the first marking in the second sub image, and a calculated second image position of a second marking in the first sub image is arranged on the second image position of the second marking in the second sub image.
