- Abstract: We introduce OpenEarthMap, a benchmark dataset, for global high-resolution
land cover mapping. OpenEarthMap consists of 2.2 million segments of 5000
aerial and satellite images covering 97 regions from 44 countries across 6
continents, with manually annotated 8-class land cover labels at a 0.25--0.5m
ground sampling distance. Semantic segmentation models trained on the
OpenEarthMap generalize worldwide and can be used as off-the-shelf models in a
variety of applications. We evaluate the performance of state-of-the-art
methods for unsupervised domain adaptation and present challenging problem
settings suitable for further technical development. We also investigate
lightweight models using automated neural architecture search for limited
computational resources and fast mapping. The dataset is available at
https://open-earth-map.org.

We introduce MapEval, a benchmark designed to assess diverse and complex map-based user queries with geo-spatial reasoning.
MapEval consists of 700 unique multiple-choice questions about locations across 180 cities and 54 countries.
Our detailed analyses provide insights into the strengths and weaknesses of current models, though all models still fall short of human performance by more than 20% on average.
This gap highlights MapEval's critical role in advancing general-purpose foundation models with stronger geo-spatial understanding.
