AEF-Econ: Toward Plug-and-Play Socioeconomic Foundation Embeddings from AlphaEarth for Urban Remote Sensing

arXiv:2606.20697v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: AlphaEarth Foundations (AEF) unify global remote sensing foundation embeddings through multimodal self-supervised learning, but their pretraining focuses on physical land-surface signals, limiting plug-and-play use in socioeconomic tasks. We integrate seven heterogeneous data streams across 36 Chinese cities over eight years - AEF embeddings, population, nighttime lights, remote sensing indices, points of interest (POIs), urban morphology, and cros...
