Affected areas of images captured by cameras that are experiencing one or more anomalies may be modified by inpainting portions of counterpart images onto the affected areas. Where a camera provided aboard an operating vehicle (e.g., an aerial vehicle) is experiencing an anomaly that adversely affects the quality of images captured thereby, counterpart images that are captured by other cameras (e.g., cameras provided aboard the vehicle or elsewhere) at the same time, or by the affected camera at an earlier time, may be used for inpainting. Portions of counterpart images may be selected for inpainting according to a transform function that takes into account a pose of an affected camera, dynamics of an operating vehicle or any other factors. Images that have been modified by inpainting may be utilized by an operating vehicle for any purpose, such as computer vision applications, navigation, guidance, or collision avoidance.
