Date : 2025-07-18 => 2025-07-19
Lieu : Vancouver, Canada

ICML 2025 workshop on global datasets and models for Earth Observation

When: 18/19 July 2025

Where: Vancouver, Canada

Submission website: https://openreview.net/group?id=ICML.cc/2025/Workshop/TerraBytes

Important dates

Papers submission deadline: May 16th, 2025
Papers acceptance notification: June 6, 2025
Workshop: July 18/19, 2025

Earth Observation (EO) presents unique challenges and opportunities that set it apart from other fields of machine learning (ML) and computer vision (CV) (Rolf et al., 2024). EO data is abundant, repeatedly covering a large but limited environment: our planet. The colocation and evolution of these observations is a rich, emergent source of information, of multimodal and multitemporal nature. However, due to both local and global changes, especially climate change, the statistical distribution of EO data is inherently non-stationary (Tarasiou et al., 2023). These properties break some of the usual assumptions of ML, and EO data require special care for data handling and modeling (Mai et al., 2022). In addition, current EO datasets are sampled with spatio-temporal biases. Some areas, e.g., the global South, are strongly under-represented within EO datasets (Cornebise et al., 2022). In optical imagery, cloud cover is undesirable, thus leading to datasets that remove cloudy images at the risk of biasing their geographical coverage (Tiede et al., 2021). Addressing these distributional biases is of primary importance, as they have an impact on the performance and reliability of models for downstream applications in ecology, geosciences, agriculture, urban planning, etc. (Kattenborn et al., 2022).

TerraBytes is an initiative to address these challenges. At the intersection of data curation, data archiving, and representation learning, this workshop will foster a holistic discussion covering major steps in the EO from downlinked satellite data, training paradigms to downstream applications.

Call for submissions

We invite submissions on the following topics:

Large-scale Earth observation datasets and benchmarks:
curation of new large-scale vision datasets for EO,
augmentation techniques for EO data and their impact on learning, data traceability and expansion of existing datasets,
re-use and adoption of existing datasets in new scenarios,
impact of training data quality and size on downstream tasks under domain shifts.
Efficient and continual representation learning for remote sensing:
weakly and self-supervised learning for EO data,
domain adaptation strategies to deal with temporal, geographical or sensor gaps,
continual and online learning, to update models when facing distribution shifts,
active learning and reinforcement learning.
Real-world applications:
early detection, monitoring and assessment of disasters e.g. floods, landslides, wildfires,
large-scale Land Cover and Land Use mapping,
2D and 3D change detection in urban and rural areas,
estimation of biophysical parameters (biomass, biodiversity, soil stress, etc.).

PAPER SUBMISSION

The Paper strand provides the opportunity for researchers to present their new state-of-the-art research in Distributed Computing Systems, which makes, or has the potential to make, a significant contribution to the field.
Papers must be original and unpublished and must not be submitted concurrently for publication elsewhere. All paper submissions should follow the IEEE 8.5” x 11” two-column format using 10pt fonts and the IEEE Conference template (downloadable by selecting “Conferences” in the IEEE-Template Selector https://template-selector.ieee.org/).
Each submission can have up to eleven (11) pages (including figures, tables, appendices, and references).
Papers exceeding this page limit or with smaller fonts will be desk-rejected without review.

The paper review process is double-blind. Authors are required to take all reasonable steps to preserve the anonymity of their submission.
The submission must not include author information and must not include citations or discussion of related work that would make the authorship apparent. While authors can upload their paper to institutional or other preprint repositories such as arXiv.org before reviewing is complete, we generally discourage this since it places anonymity at risk.
If authors decide to upload their paper to a preprint site, they must make sure that the title and abstract of their submission to
ICDCS are different from the title and abstract of the preprint version, so that it is not immediately
obvious that the two versions are by the same authors and with the same content.
To encourage reproducibility, we encourage the authors, whenever it is possible, to include in their paper a link to an anonymised GitHub repository with all source code, scripts and data needed for the reproduction of their results.

For each accepted paper, at least one author is required to pay a full author registration and attend the conference in-person to present their work on-site. Any no-show papers will be reported to the publisher and removed from the conference proceedings. For authors with multiple papers accepted by the conference, a separate author registration is required for each paper. The authors should adhere to ethic and professional standards of IEEE. Please refer to IEEE Code of Ethics and IEEE Policy of AI-Generated Text.

Note: A set of highly selected IEEE ICDCS 2025 papers will be considered for publication in the IEEE Transactions on Parallel and Distributed Systems (TPDS). The selected papers will undergo an extension process, transforming them from their initial IEEE ICDCS conference format. These extended versions will then be subject to a review by an editor from IEEE TPDS.

*** Paper Deadline Dates – Time zone: Anywhere on Earth (AoE) ***

MACLEAN: MAChine Learning for EArth ObservatioN

19 September 2025

KEY DATES

Paper submission deadline: June 14, 2025
Paper acceptance notification: July 14, 2025
Paper camera-ready deadline: TBA

CONTEXT

The huge amount of data currently produced by modern Earth Observation (EO) missions has raised up new challenges for the Remote Sensing communities. EO sensors are now able to offer (very) high spatial resolution images with revisit time frequencies never achieved before considering different kind of signals, e.g., multi-(hyper)spectral optical, radar, LiDAR and Digital Surface Models.
In this context, modern machine learning techniques can play a crucial role to deal with such amount of heterogeneous, multi-scale and multi-modal data. Some examples of techniques that are gaining attention in this domain include deep learning, domain adaptation, semi-supervised approach, time series analysis and active learning.
Even though the use of machine learning and the development of ad-hoc techniques are gaining increasing popularity in the EO domain, we can witness that a significant lack of interaction between domain experts and machine learning researchers still exists.
The objective of this workshop is to supply an international forum where machine learning researchers and domain-experts can meet each other, in order to exchange, debate and draw short and long term research objectives around the exploitation and analysis of EO data via Machine Learning techniques. Among the workshop’s objectives, we want to give an overview of the current machine learning researches dealing with EO data, and, on the other hand, we want to stimulate concrete discussions to pave the way to new machine learning frameworks especially tailored to deal with such data.

Session Formalisation de la connaissance et de l’interprétation en géologie (29è réunion des sciences de la terre)
Oct 27 – Oct 30 all-day

Date : 2025-10-27 => 2025-10-30
Lieu : Montpellier

La 29è réunion des sciences de la terre (RST) aura lieu du 27 au 30 octobre 2025, au Corum à Montpellier.

rst-montpellier.sciencesconf.org

Dans le thème GÉOPATRIMOINE – COLLECTIONS – DIFFUSION & MÉDIATION SCIENTIFIQUE, une session est proposé à la croisée des géosciences et de l’informatique.

Cette session s’intitule GeoKIF: Formalisation de la connaissance et de l’interprétation en géologie.

Description et objectif : La gestion des données en géosciences est confrontée à des défis scientifiques et techniques liés (i) à leur nature volumineuse, variée, et complexe (aspects spatio-temporel et multidimensionnel), (ii) aux incertitudes (notamment épistémiques), ainsi qu’à (iii) l’évolution des technologies. Cette session abordera principalement les travaux sur le développement d’approches numériques permettant un traitement efficace des données, en prenant en compte (i) leur variété structurelle : graphes, nuage de points, données textuelles structurées ou non, (ii) leur variété en termes de qualité, et (iii) les modèles IA pour analyser ou interpréter ces données ? Cette session se focalisera sur les problématiques de la structuration de la donnée et en particulier en relation avec les connaissances et interprétations qui y sont liées, et sur l’évolution des méthodes de calcul et de représentation des données.

Nous vous invitons à contribuer à cette session soit par la présentation de travaux de recherche soit par la présentation d’avancées technologiques ou services divers mis à la disposition de la profession.
Les instructions pour la soumission se trouvent ici : https://rst-montpellier.sciencesconf.org/resource/page/id/6

Cette session est proposée dans le cadre de l’atelier GeoKIF du GDR CNRS MaDICS (https://www.madics.fr/ateliers/geokif/).

PPR Océan & Climat : Appel à propositions de data challenges.
Oct 4 all-day

Date : 2024-10-04 => 2026-10-04

Chers collègues,

Nous avons le plaisir de vous annoncer le lancement d’une action IA dans le cadre du PPR Océan & Climat (https://www.ocean-climat.fr/). Cette action nationale vise à soutenir le développement de solutions nativement IA pour la modélisation, la prévision et l’observation des océans.

Suivant une démarche inspirée des avancées récentes pour la prévision météorologique court-terme, la première phase (octobre 2024-septembre 2025) visera via un appel à propositions à définir de manière collaborative des “data challenges” dont la mise en oeuvre (e.g., jeux de données, cadre d’évaluation) bénéficiera du soutien du PPR en termes d’ingénierie support. La deuxième phase (septembre 2025-décembre 2027) s’appuiera sur la sélection de 8 à 9 postdoctorats de deux ans pour laquelle un appel sera ouvert début 2025.

Nous organisons deux webinaires les 4/10 et 11/10 (12.00-13.00) pour présenter cette action et répondre à toute question (cf. lien zoom ci-dessous). Nous vous invitons également à rejoindre un espace slack dédié en complétant le formulaire d’inscription ci-dessous. Nous proposons que cet espace slack soit la plateforme principale pour les échanges autour de cette action.

Merci de faire suivre ce mail à toute personne potentiellement intéressée.
N’hésitez pas à me contacter pour tout complément d’information.

Bien cordialement,
Ronan Fablet pour le comité de suivi
