1. A computer-implemented method comprising: obtaining a captured image including, (i) a latent fingerprint, and (ii) a template, surrounding the latent fingerprint, that contains a plurality of symbols; extracting, using an image processing technique, one or more characteristics for each of the plurality of symbols; calculating a resolution for the captured image based at least on the extracted one or more characteristics for each of the plurality of symbols; generating a reconstructed desired image, based at least on (i) the calculated resolution of the captured image, and (ii) the one or more extracted characteristics for each of the plurality of symbols; and providing the reconstructed desired image to a fingerprint identification system to perform a particular fingerprint operation.
