• Abstract summary: We introduce Skyeyes, a novel framework that can generate sequences of ground view images using only aerial view inputs. More specifically, we combine a 3D representation with a view consistent generation model, which ensures coherence between generated images. The images maintain improved spatial-temporal coherence and realism, enhancing scene comprehension and visualization from aerial perspectives.

• Abstract: Integrating aerial imagery-based scene generation into applications like autonomous driving and gaming enhances realism in 3D environments, but challenges remain in creating detailed content for occluded areas and ensuring real-time, consistent rendering. In this paper, we introduce Skyeyes, a novel framework that can generate photorealistic sequences of ground view images using only aerial view inputs, thereby creating a ground roaming experience. More specifically, we combine a 3D representation with a view consistent generation model, which ensures coherence between generated images. This method allows for the creation of geometrically consistent ground view images, even with large view gaps. The images maintain improved spatial-temporal coherence and realism, enhancing scene comprehension and visualization from aerial perspectives. To the best of our knowledge, there are no publicly available datasets that contain pairwise geo-aligned aerial and ground view imagery. Therefore, we build a large, synthetic, and geo-aligned dataset using Unreal Engine. Both qualitative and quantitative analyses on this synthetic dataset display superior results compared to other leading synthesis approaches.

  We propose a scalable framework combining pseudo-synthetic renderings from 3D city-wide meshes with real, ground-level crowd-sourced images. The pseudo-synthetic data simulates a wide range of aerial viewpoints, while the real, crowd-sourced images help improve visual fidelity for ground-level images. Using this hybrid dataset, we fine-tune several state-of-the-art algorithms and achieve significant improvements on real-world, zero-shot aerial-ground tasks.

  We propose Scene123, a 3D scene generation model that ensures realism and diversity through the video generation framework. Specifically, we warp the input image (or an image generated from text) to simulate adjacent views, filling the invisible areas with the MAE model. To further enhance the details and texture fidelity of generated views, we employ a GAN-based Loss against images derived from the input image through the video generation model.

  We propose a novel architecture for direct 3D scene generation by introducing diffusion models into 3D sparse representations and combining them with neural rendering techniques. Specifically, our approach generates texture colors at the point level for a given geometry using a 3D diffusion model first, which is then transformed into a scene representation in a feed-forward manner. Experiments in two city-scale datasets show that our model demonstrates proficiency in generating photo-realistic street-view image sequences and cross-view urban scenes from satellite imagery.
