Embodiments of present disclosure discloses system and method for reconstruction of FOV. Initially, presence of one of single object and distinct objects in FOV of image of sample comprising one or more objects is determined based on sharpness of one or more objects. A single optimal representation of FOV may be generated when presence of single object is determined.
