EARTHVISION 2024

EARTHVISION 2024

June 17th, Seattle, USA

Aims and Scope

Earth Observation (EO) and remote sensing are ever-growing fields of investigation where computer vision, machine learning, and signal/image processing meet. The general objective of the domain is to provide large-scale and consistent information about processes occurring at the surface of the Earth by exploiting data collected by airborne and spaceborne sensors. Earth Observation covers a broad range of tasks, from detection to registration, data mining, and multi-sensor, multi-resolution, multi-temporal, and multi-modality fusion and regression, to name just a few. It is motivated by numerous  applications such as location-based services, online mapping services, large-scale surveillance, 3D urban modeling, navigation systems, natural hazard forecast and response, climate change monitoring, virtual habitat modeling, food security, etc. The sheer amount of data calls for highly automated scene interpretation workflows. 

Earth Observation and in particular the analysis of spaceborne data directly connects to 34 indicators out of 40 (29 targets and 11 goals) of the Sustainable Development Goals defined by the United Nations ( https://sdgs.un.org/goals  ). The aim of EarthVision to advance the state of the art in machine learning-based analysis of remote sensing data is thus of high relevance. It also connects to other immediate societal challenges such as monitoring of forest fires and other natural hazards, urban growth, deforestation, and climate change.

A non exhaustive list of topics of interest includes the following:

  • Super-resolution in the spectral and spatial domain

  • Hyperspectral and multispectral image processing

  • Reconstruction and segmentation of optical and LiDAR 3D point clouds

  • Feature extraction and learning from spatio-temporal data 

  • Analysis  of UAV / aerial and satellite images and videos

  • Deep learning tailored for large-scale Earth Observation

  • Domain adaptation, concept drift, and the detection of out-of-distribution data

  • Data-centric machine learning

  • Evaluating models using unlabeled data

  • Self-, weakly, and unsupervised approaches for learning with spatial data

  • Foundation models and representation learning in the context of EO

  • Human-in-the-loop and active learning

  • Multi-resolution, multi-temporal, multi-sensor, multi-modal processing

  • Fusion of machine learning and physical models

  • Explainable and interpretable machine learning in Earth Observation applications

  • Uncertainty quantification of machine-learning based prediction from EO data

  • Applications for climate change, sustainable development goals, and geoscience

  • Public benchmark datasets: training data standards, testing & evaluation metrics, as well as open source research and development.

All manuscripts will be subject to a double-blind review process. Accepted EarthVision papers will be included in the CVPR2024 workshop proceedings (published open access on the Computer Vision Foundation website) and submitted to IEEE for publication in IEEEXplore. Publication in IEEEXplore will be granted only if the paper meets IEEE publication policies and procedures.

Welcome and Awards Announcement

9:15-10:00 

Keynote 1 –  Dan Morris, Google AI for Nature and Society

“Geospatial ML work you want to do for conservation”

Abstract

In this talk, I’ll highlight several translational research areas where the work that the EarthVision community is already doing is poised to have an immediate impact on conservation, specifically around EUDR compliance/enforcement, urban forestry, and aerial wildlife surveys, and I’ll try to convince everyone to get involved in translational work. If I don’t give the audience clear calls to action, I owe the whole room fancy coffee.

Bio

Dan Morris is a researcher in the Google AI for Nature and Society program, where he works on AI tools that help conservation scientists spend less time doing boring things and more time doing conservation. This includes tools that accelerate urban forest canopy assessments and image-based wildlife surveys. Prior to joining Google, he directed the AI for Earth program at Microsoft, and prior to that he spent approximately a zillion years in the medical devices group at Microsoft Research, working on signal processing and machine learning tools for wearable devices that supported cardiovascular monitoring, fitness tracking, and gesture interaction. He received his PhD from Stanford, where he worked on haptics and physical simulation for virtual surgery.

Keynote 2 – Marta Yebra, Australian National University

“Remote sensing technologies to support wildfire management and secure our future”

Abstract

As climate change worsens fire weather and increases the number of areas burned by wildfires worldwide, high-tech solutions are critical to changing how wildfires are battled. Remote sensing technologies provide access to dynamic and real-time information that helps fire managers to better understand the likelihood of a catastrophic bushfire, the whereabouts and intensity of active fires and accurately assess wildfire scale and environmental impacts. This remote sensing-derived information is critical to plan, prepare and respond to future wildfires. In my talk, I will provide an overview of the technological trends including sensor integration, planned satellite earth observing missions and state-of-the-art modelling approaches.

Bio

Dr. Yebra is a Professor in Environmental Engineering at the Australian National University (ANU) and the Director of the Bushfire Research Centre of Excellence which is undertaking advanced interdisciplinary research to develop an innovative system that aims to detect bushfires as soon as they start and suppress them within minutes. Her research focuses on developing applications of remote sensing to the management of fire risk and impact. Yebra led the Australian Flammability Monitoring System development, which informs landscape flammability across Australia in near real-time. It is now designing Australia’s first satellite mission to help forecast vulnerable areas where bushfires are at the highest risk of starting or burning out of control. She has served on several advisory government bodies including the Australian Space Agency’s Earth Observation Technical Advisory Group (2019-2021) and the Australian Capital Territory Multi Hazards Council (Since 2021). Dr Yebra has been awarded several awards for her contributions to bushfire management, including the Australian Space Awards Academic of the Year (2023), the Bushfire and Natural Hazards Cooperative Research Centre’s Outstanding Achievement in Research Utilization award (2019) and the Inaugural Max Day Fellowship by the Australian Academy of Science (2017).

This panel at the EarthVision workshop at CVPR 2024 will discuss various approaches to developing self-supervised “foundation” models for remote sensing data. The discussion will highlight diverse motivations, approaches, and considerations to model design as well as the challenges that remain for future work in this area.
