1. A calibration assembly for use with an endoscopic imaging system having a field of view, the calibration assembly comprising:
an interface configured for constraining engagement with the endoscopic imaging system;
a target coupled with the interface so as to be within the field of view, the target including a plurality of calibration features, wherein the calibration assembly is reconfigurable from a first spatial arrangement between the target and the endoscopic imaging system to a second spatial arrangement between the target and the endoscopic imaging system; and
a processor configured to:
obtain, from the endoscopic imaging system, first and second images of at least some of the calibration features of the target at the first and second spatial arrangements, respectively; and
generate calibration data for the endoscopic imaging system using the first and second images.
