Claim One:
1. An organism characteristic data acquiring apparatus, comprising: a sampling section for sampling a partial image of a portion of an organism; a detection section for detecting, every time a partial image is sampled by said sampling section, a relative positional relationship between the partial image and one of other partial images sampled already; an extraction section for extracting, every time a partial image is sampled by said sampling section, characteristic portion data including characteristic information unique to the organism portion from the partial image; and a synthesis section for synthesizing, every time a partial image is sampled by said sampling section, the characteristic portion data of the partial image extracted by said extraction section and characteristic portion data of the other partial image based on the relative positional relationship of the partial image detected by said detection section and outputting a result of the synthesis as organism characteristic data of the portion of the organism.
