Researchers have developed new frameworks for cross-view object geo-localization, a task that involves identifying an object's location from one image perspective (e.g., ground view) within a reference image from another perspective (e.g., satellite). The first approach introduces a large-scale dataset called \dataset with over 220,000 ground-satellite and drone-satellite pairs, alongside a single-stage framework called GAGeo that leverages a 3D foundation model. The second paper focuses on geo-localization for planetary surfaces, creating a benchmark dataset from lunar terrain models and demonstrating the effectiveness of transformer-based methods for vision-based navigation.
