Survey on Remote Sensing Scene Classification: From Traditional Methods to Large Generative AI Models
arXiv:2603.26751v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Remote sensing scene classification has experienced a paradigmatic transformation from traditional handcrafted feature methods to sophisticated artificial intelligence systems that now form the backbone of modern Earth observation applications. This comprehensive survey examines the complete methodological evolution, systematically tracing development from classical texture descriptors and machine learning classifiers through the deep learning revolution to current state-of-the-art foundation models and generative AI approaches. We chronicle the pivotal shift from manual feature engineering to automated […]
