Gaussian Splatting has been recently explored for satellite 3D reconstruction, demonstrating flexibility and efficiency in representing radiometrically diverse satellite scenes. However, the limited top viewpoint of satellite imagery results in insufficient supervision on building facades, leaving surface holes and degraded visual fidelity.

SpatialCrafter introduces a two‑stage framework for single‑image world modeling that first generates a global 3D proxy using a Point‑anchored Sparse Structure Flow module, then refines appearance with a Generative Deferred Refiner built on a video diffusion model. The method incorporates Parallel Geometry Injection and Proxy‑Aware Corruption training to integrate the proxy without disrupting the pretrained generative manifold, and it is evaluated on a newly constructed dataset of 115K scenes. Experiments demonstrate that SpatialCrafter outperforms existing approaches, reducing long‑term drift and maintaining consistency under rapid camera motion and extreme viewpoints.

SatUnreal is a synthetic dataset created with Unreal Engine that offers 10,000 high‑resolution (0.3 m GSD) satellite stereo pairs. It addresses key limitations of existing benchmarks by ensuring physical geometry simulation, spatio‑temporal consistency, topographic diversity, and mathematically precise occlusion masks via a two‑step line‑trace algorithm. Models trained solely on SatUnreal outperform those trained on real datasets when transferred to real‑world benchmarks such as US3D and WHU‑Stereo.

Bi-FlowGS introduces a bidirectional co-refinement framework that links generative view completion with 3D Gaussian Splatting geometry. It employs Video-to-Geometry Flow Distillation (V2G) to transfer temporal correspondence from restored videos into Gaussian geometry, mitigating the Geometry Cheating problem. Simultaneously, Geometry-to-Video Flow-Guided Restoration (G2V) uses the current 3DGS geometry to guide temporally consistent video restoration, creating a loop where restored videos and optimized geometry iteratively improve each other, leading to better rendering quality and geometric consistency on wide-baseline and 360° benchmarks.

DecomVoxel introduces a guided in‑situ denoising optimization that fuses 3D‑native priors with neural scene reconstruction to improve decompositional scene reconstruction. The method employs an epsilon‑based distillation loss for stable latent refinement and adaptive spatial guidance using occupied and vacant anchors with temporal annealing to reduce hallucinations and spatial drift. Experiments on Replica and ScanNet++ demonstrate that DecomVoxel outperforms state‑of‑the‑art approaches while preserving spatial layout, structural fidelity, and style‑consistent texture, yielding high‑quality textured meshes with clean topology.
