Multi-temporal change detection (CD) plays a crucial role in the remote sensing application field. In recent years, supervised deep learning methods have shown excellent performance detecting changes very-high-resolution (VHR) images. However, these require large number of labeled samples for training, making process time-consuming and labor-intensive. Unsupervised approaches are more attractive practical applications since they can produce CD map without relying on any ground reference or prior knowledge. this paper, we propose novel unsupervised approach, named Transformer-based Multivariate Alteration Detection (Trans-MAD). It utilizes pre-detection strategy that combines Compressed Change Vector Analysis (C 2 VA) Iteratively Reweighted (IR-MAD) to generate reliable pseudo-training samples. More accurate robust results be achieved by leveraging IR-MAD detect insignificant incorporating attention mechanism model difference similarity between two distant pixels an image. The proposed Trans-MAD approach was validated VHR bi-temporal satellite datasets, obtained experimental demonstrated its superiority comparing with state-of-the-art methods.

The foundation model has recently garnered significant attention due to its potential revolutionize the field of visual representation learning in a self-supervised manner. While most models are tailored effectively process RGB images for various tasks, there is noticeable gap research focused on spectral data, which offers valuable information scene understanding, especially remote sensing (RS) applications. To fill this gap, we created first time universal RS model, named SpectralGPT, purpose-built handle using novel 3D generative pretrained transformer (GPT). Compared existing models, SpectralGPT 1) accommodates input with varying sizes, resolutions, series, and regions progressive training fashion, enabling full utilization extensive Big Data; 2) leverages token generation spatial-spectral coupling; 3) captures spectrally sequential patterns via multi-target reconstruction; 4) trains one million images, yielding over 600 parameters. Our evaluation highlights performance improvements signifying substantial advancing Data applications within geoscience across four downstream tasks: single/multi-label classification, semantic segmentation, change detection.

Enormous efforts have been recently made to super-resolve hyperspectral (HS) images with the aid of high spatial resolution multispectral (MS) images. Most prior works usually perform fusion task by means multifarious pixel-level priors. Yet intrinsic effects a large distribution gap between HS-MS data due differences in and spectral are less investigated. The might be caused unknown sensor-specific properties or highly-mixed information within one pixel (due low resolution). To this end, we propose subpixel-level HS super-resolution framework devising novel decoupled-and-coupled network, called DC-Net, progressively fuse from pixel- subpixel-level, image- feature-level. As name suggests, DC-Net first decouples input into common (or cross-sensor) components eliminate before further fusion, then thoroughly blends them model-guided coupled unmixing (CSU) net. More significantly, append self-supervised learning module behind CSU net guaranteeing material consistency enhance detailed appearance restored product. Extensive experimental results show superiority our method both visually quantitatively achieve significant improvement comparison state-of-the-art.

Flood models rely on accurate topographic data representing the bare earth ground surface. In many parts of world, only available are free, satellite-derived global Digital Elevation Models (DEMs). However, these have well-known inaccuracies due to limitations sensors used generate them (such as a failure fully penetrate vegetation canopies and buildings). We assess five contemporary, 1 arc-second (≈30 m) DEMs -- FABDEM, Copernicus DEM, NASADEM, AW3D30 SRTM using diverse reference dataset comprised 65 airborne-LiDAR surveys, selected represent biophysical variations in flood-prone areas globally. While vertical accuracy is nuanced, contingent specific metrics character site being assessed, we found that recently-released FABDEM consistently ranked first, improving second-place DEM by reducing large positive errors associated with forests buildings. Our results suggest land cover main factor explaining (especially forests), steep slopes wider error spreads (although resampled from higher-resolution products less sensitive), variable dependency terrain aspect likely function horizontal geolocation problematic for DEM).
