EO-VGGT: Orbital Ray-Conditioned 3D Foundation Models for Satellite Multi-View Reconstruction
arXiv:2607.00417v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: In the era of satellite constellations, multi-view optical satellite imagery is pivotal for Earth Observation (EO) and high-quality Digital Surface Model (DSM) reconstruction. Although feed-forward 3D foundation models have transformed computer vision, their deployment in satellite remote sensing is inherently constrained by the structural discrepancy between implicit perspective assumptions and explicit orbital pushbroom geometry. This geometric incongruity is further compounded by pronounced view-set heterogeneity. We present EO-VGGT, a frame
The proliferation of satellite constellations requires advanced methods for Earth Observation (EO) and geospatial intelligence, coinciding with advancements in 3D foundation models for computer vision.
This development enhances the accuracy and efficiency of satellite imagery analysis, crucial for numerous applications from environmental monitoring to defense and urban planning, reducing reliance on conventional photogrammetry.
The explicit incorporation of orbital pushbroom geometry into 3D foundation models overcomes a significant structural constraint, enabling more precise and robust multi-view satellite reconstruction.
