The paper introduces OVRSISBench, a unified benchmark for open‑vocabulary remote sensing image segmentation, and evaluates existing OVS/OVRSIS models, uncovering their shortcomings in remote sensing contexts. Leveraging insights from this evaluation, the authors propose RSKT‑Seg, a new framework featuring a Multi‑Directional Cost Map Aggregation module, an Efficient Cost Map Fusion transformer, and a Remote Sensing Knowledge Transfer module. Experiments on the benchmark demonstrate that RSKT‑Seg outperforms strong baselines by +3.8 mIoU and +5.9 mACC while achieving twice the inference speed.
arXiv:2608. 15790v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Crevasse mapping from uncrewed aerial vehicle (UAV) imagery matters for glaciological research and for field safety in glaciated terrain.
arXiv:2607. 23024v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: High-resolution satellite imagery is the backbone of good land-cover classification, and without that, environmental monitoring, urban planning, and sustainable resource management all fall short.
Open-vocabulary remote sensing segmentation has recently emerged as a promising paradigm that enables pixel-level recognition of arbitrary categories specified by natural language, including classes unseen during training. However, geospatial domain shifts caused by heterogeneous regions, spatial resolutions, and acquisition platforms weaken visual-text matching and limit cross-dataset generalization.
arXiv:2606. 00548v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Concentrated Animal Feeding Operations (CAFOs) play an important role in agricultural production but are also associated with environmental, public health, and disease surveillance concerns.
arXiv:2606. 02092v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Semantic segmentation of remote sensing imagery requires models that capture both global context and local detail under tight computational budgets.
arXiv:2608. 03023v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Remote sensing semantic segmentation is hindered by costly pixel-level annotations, motivating training-free open-vocabulary methods.
The paper introduces SARTM, a framework that adapts the Segment Anything Model (SAM) for RGB‑thermal (RGB‑T) semantic segmentation. It fine‑tunes SAM with LoRA layers, incorporates language guidance, and employs a Cross‑Modal Knowledge Distillation module to bridge modality gaps. The approach also modifies the segmentation head and adds an auxiliary semantic head, achieving superior performance on MFNET, PST900, and FMB benchmarks.
arXiv:2607. 15942v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Remote sensing vision-language models are increasingly expected to support open-ended reasoning over Earth Observation data and a variety of tasks.
Semantic segmentation of remote sensing imagery requires models that capture both global context and local detail under tight computational budgets. Prior work typically optimizes for one of these axes: attention for global context, convolution for local detail, or compactness for efficiency.
