Systems, devices, media and methods are presented for generating biometric image data. In one example, a system accesses a set of images stored on a mobile computing device. The system identifies one or more faces depicted in the set of images and generates a set of face images from the set of images. The system determines a set of positions of a set of facial features depicted within the set of face images and generates a set of biometric reference maps based on the set of positions. The system transmits the set of face images to a reference server and stores the set of biometric reference maps on the mobile computing device.
