Agricultural monitoring faces unique challenges, arising from the landscape's complex temporal, phenological, and climate dynamics, yet monitoring them is critical for ensuring food security. Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) satellites offer all-weather day-night imaging capability supporting key monitoring tasks including crop type mapping, yield prediction and phenological event detection.

arXiv:2607. 14509v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: This paper describes DS@GT ARC's third-place solution to the PlantCLEF 2026 challenge on multi-species plant identification in vegetation quadrat images, where systems must predict every species present in high-resolution (~3000 x 3000 pixel) plot photographs while training only on single-label images of individual plants.
