Colloidal gold particles are used as hard, spherical imaging targets to assist in the three‐dimensional reconstruction of the atomic force probe apex. Probe reconstructions are shown to be accurate to 1 nm resolution and dynamically change as the sample is scanned, emphasizing the utility of colloidal gold particles as in situ calibration standards for image reconstruction of a coadsorbed specimen.
