The paper presents a modular, scalable framework for estimating the probability of failure (PoF) of power‑line assets using geospatial machine learning. It integrates diverse environmental predictors—topography, vegetation indices, lightning climatology, proximity features, and operational records—to model vegetation‑ and lightning‑related failure modes. The architecture is designed to be computationally efficient, easily extensible to new data sources, and suitable for large‑scale utility deployment, enabling asset‑level risk stratification for inspection and resilience planning.

arXiv:2606. 19363v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: The deployment of Time-Series Foundation Models (TSFMs) in physical sciences is hindered by a critical trade-off: while these models encode rich, universal temporal dynamics, they suffer from severe distributional misalignment when applied zero-shot to specific scientific domains, and their computational cost prohibits deployment in edge-computing sensor networks.

Newly triggered landslides rarely carry immediate annotations, so cross-domain transferability determines the value of landslide mapping for emergency response and regional risk assessment. Vision foundation models have strengthened representational transfer, yet on unseen regions, events, and data sources they still generate high-confidence false alarms.
