Systems and methods for on-image navigation and direct image-to-data storage table data capture

A system for on-image navigation and direct image-to-data storage table data capture, the system comprising:

• a processor;
• a non-transitory computer-readable medium;
• and
• stored instructions translatable by the processor for:
• receiving or obtaining, from a recognition engine, positions of table data of a table in a document image processed by the recognition engine;
• generating an overlay using the positions of the table data found by the recognition engine in the document image;
• presenting a data entry form, the document image, and the overlay on a display screen, the overlay overlaying the document image on the display screen, the overlay having a focus corresponding to a table cell on the document image;
• receiving, responsive to a user navigating the overlay overlaying the document image, a user indication to select the focus to correspond to a selected table cell on the document image;
• automatically determining a field of the data entry form that corresponds to the selected table cell on the document image based on a correlation between a location of the selected focus and the overlay overlaying the document image;
• and
• populating the determined field of the data entry form with a value from the selected table cell on the document image.
