• Abstract: Craters are amongst the most important morphological features in planetary exploration. To that extent, detecting, mapping and counting craters is a mainstream process in planetary science, done primarily manually, which is a very laborious and time-consuming process. Recently, machine learning (ML) and computer vision have been successfully applied for both detecting craters and estimating their size. Existing ML approaches for automated crater detection have been trained in specific types of data e.g. digital elevation model (DEM), images and associated metadata for orbiters such as the Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter Camera (LROC) etc.. Due to that, each of the resulting ML schemes is applicable and reliable only to the type of data used during the training process. Data from different sources, angles and setups can compromise the reliability of these ML schemes. In this paper we present a universal crater detection scheme that is based on the recently proposed Segment Anything Model (SAM) from META AI. SAM is a prompt-able segmentation system with zero-shot generalization to unfamiliar objects and images without the need for additional training. Using SAM we can successfully identify crater-looking objects in any type of data (e,g, raw satellite images Level-1 and 2 products, DEMs etc.) for different setups (e.g. Lunar, Mars) and different capturing angles. Moreover, using shape indexes, we only keep the segmentation masks of crater-like features. These masks are subsequently fitted with an ellipse, recovering both the location and the size/geometry of the detected craters.

  We show that the key to a zero-shot single-view metric depth model lies in the combination of large-scale data training and resolving the metric ambiguity from various camera models. We propose a canonical camera space transformation module, which explicitly addresses the ambiguity problems and can be effortlessly plugged into existing monocular models. Our method enables the accurate recovery of metric 3D structures on randomly collected internet images.
