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.
Over the past decade, interest in applying machine learning (ML) to automate forest monitoring has grown significantly. However, existing training datasets are predominantly drawn from North America, Europe, Asia, and Australia, leaving a critical gap in African forestry data.

arXiv:2607. 06105v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: High-resolution RGB imagery acquired from low-altitude UAV surveys was processed through a modular pipeline incorporating transformer-based semantic segmentation, connected-component vegetation extraction, fine-grained species classification using a ConvNeXt architecture, and grid-based dominance scoring at 2x2m resolution.
