Cross-view geo-localization is challenging due to drastic viewpoint changes and large appearance discrepancies between street-level and satellite imagery. Although existing methods often use geometric warping to expose co-visible cues, such transformations rely on restrictive spatial assumptions and inevitably introduce severe visual distortions under view-dependent visibility, yielding noisy supervision and fragile correspondences.
GaussianDS introduces a depth‑supervised framework for 3D Gaussian Splatting that jointly optimizes RGB appearance, depth, and compact semantics from scratch. By arranging multi‑view images into a pose‑aware pseudo‑video and propagating view‑consistent masks via SAM2, the method aligns semantic lifting with geometric cues, using depth supervision and edge‑aware refinement to curb semantic drift and boundary leakage. The approach achieves state‑of‑the‑art performance on LERF and 3D‑OVS benchmarks while preserving high‑fidelity reconstruction and enabling downstream tasks such as 3D object removal.
