Researchers have developed a new algorithm called Deficit-Driven Stratified Acquisition (DDSA) to address the challenges of building co-registered SAR-optical corpora for self-supervised Earth Observation. Unlike opportunistic data collection, DDSA treats corpus construction as a constrained maximum-coverage problem, ensuring temporal pairing and quality control through a multi-stage process and a human-in-the-loop repair stage. This method successfully populates all strata from the initial budget and recovers a significant portion of pairs through its repair loop, resulting in the release of the STRATA-S12 corpus, which is confirmed to be suitable for self-supervised pre-training.
