arXiv:2608.30895v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Performance evaluation for surface-water segmentation commonly uses an aggregate metric such as global intersection-over-union (IoU) to rank model conf...
The paper presents a method for distilling a large 300‑million‑parameter geospatial foundation model (Prithvi‑EO‑2.0) into a compact 0.7‑million‑parameter EfficientViT‑B0 student for flood segmentation. By using the teacher to supervise additional unlabeled Sentinel‑2 imagery, the student’s training set expands without new manual labels, achieving competitive performance on Sen1Floods11 and STURM‑Flood while remaining smaller and faster. After quantization, the student runs as a 1.5‑MB INT8 TensorRT engine on a Jetson Xavier NX, processing 512×512 images in 5.57 ms with ~14 MB of memory.
arXiv:2607. 18504v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Benchmarks for Geospatial Foundation Models (GFMs) increasingly rank models by aggregate score, but such rankings obscure why models differ: how much of the gap is architecture, how much is decoder capacity, and how much is a use-case-specific artefact?

arXiv:2606. 07780v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Floods are among the most destructive natural hazards, and their increasing frequency under climate change makes satellite-based inundation mapping essential for disaster response.
arXiv:2609.37565v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Deep learning surrogates can produce high-resolution coastal flood maps orders of magnitude faster than physics-based hydrodynamic simulators, yet tran...
