Spatial Representation Learning Beyond Pixels: Unifying Raster Data and Vector Semantics for Human-Centric Geospatial Foundation Models
Steffen Knoblauch, Hao Li, Gengchen Mai +3
Earth Observation (EO) has fundamentally transformed the monitoring of environmental processes and human activities up to planetary scale. Recent advances in self-supervised learni…
The NetMob26 Dataset: A High-Resolution Multi-Source View of Public Bus Mobility in Niterói
Felipe Domingos, Humberto T. Marques-Neto, Bruno Pereira +3
The NetMob Data Challenge releases a comprehensive public transportation dataset from Niterói, addressing the lack of high-quality mobility and passenger demand data. Based on oper…
Open-access model for detecting openly dumped dispersed municipal solid waste from crowdsourced UAV imagery in Sub-Saharan Africa
Steffen Knoblauch, Ram Kumar Muthusamy, Luis M. A. Bettencourt +8
Managing municipal solid waste in rapidly urbanizing Sub-Saharan Africa remains challenging due to dispersed informal dumping and limited high-resolution datasets for spatial monit…
Unbox Responsible GeoAI: Navigating Climate Extreme and Disaster Mapping
Hao Li, Steffen Knoblauch
As climate extreme and disaster events become more frequent and intense, Geospatial Artificial Intelligence (GeoAI) has emerged as a transformative approach for large-scale disaste…
AI-based Waste Mapping for Addressing Climate-Exacerbated Flood Risk
Steffen Knoblauch, Levi Szamek, Iddy Chazua +3
Urban flooding is a growing climate change-related hazard in rapidly expanding African cities, where inadequate waste management often blocks drainage systems and amplifies flood r…
Assessing Building Heat Resilience Using UAV and Street-View Imagery with Coupled Global Context Vision Transformer
Steffen Knoblauch, Ram Kumar Muthusamy, Hao Li +4
Climate change is intensifying human heat exposure, particularly in densely built urban centers of the Global South. Low-cost construction materials and high thermal-mass surfaces…
Automated Road Crack Localization for Spatially Guided Highway Maintenance
Steffen Knoblauch, Ram Kumar Muthusamy, Pedram Ghamisi +1
Highway networks are crucial for economic prosperity. Climate change-induced temperature fluctuations are exacerbating stress on road pavements, resulting in elevated maintenance c…
Towards Generative Location Awareness for Disaster Response: A Probabilistic Cross-view Geolocalization Approach
Hao Li, Fabian Deuser, Wenping Yin +5
As Earth's climate changes, it is impacting disasters and extreme weather events across the planet. Record-breaking heat waves, drenching rainfalls, extreme wildfires, and widespre…
SHRUG-FM: Reliability-Aware Foundation Models for Earth Observation
Maria Gonzalez-Calabuig, Kai-Hendrik Cohrs, Vishal Nedungadi +7
Geospatial foundation models (GFMs) for Earth observation often fail to perform reliably in environments underrepresented during pretraining. We introduce SHRUG-FM, a framework for…
GeoDEN: A Visual Exploration Tool for Analysing the Geographic Spread of Dengue Serotypes
Aidan Marler, Yannik Roell, Steffen Knoblauch +3
Static maps and animations remain popular in spatial epidemiology of dengue, limiting the analytical depth and scope of visualisations. Over half of the global population live in d…
