Measuring higher order correlation functions is an emerging technique in the field of imaging to overcome the classical resolution limit [1-3]. We propose to use higher order spatial correlations of photons emitted by independent classical sources with thermal statistics to implement an imaging technique capable of reconstructing arbitrary two-dimensional source geometries. The detection scheme generalizes our earlier imaging scheme which resolved one-dimensional source geometries with sub-Abbe resolution [3]. The scheme is able to isolate all spatial frequencies of the system sequentially what allows to retrieve the geometry of the sources. We present experimental data verifying the theory.
