RS5M and GeoRSCLIP: A Large Scale Vision-Language Dataset and A Vision-Language Foundation Model for Remote Sensing

RS5M Dataset

Pre-trained Vision-Language Models (VLMs) utilizing extensive image-text paired data have demonstrated unprecedented image-text association capabilities, achieving remarkable results across various downstream tasks. A critical challenge is how to make use of existing large-scale pre-trained VLMs, which are trained on common objects, to perform the domain-specific transfer for accomplishing domain-related downstream tasks. In this paper, we propose a new framework that includes the Domain pre-trained Vision-Language Model (DVLM), bridging the gap between the General Vision-Language Model (GVLM) and domain-specific downstream tasks. Moreover, we present an image-text paired dataset in the field of remote sensing (RS), RS5M, which has 5 million RS images with English descriptions. The dataset is obtained from filtering publicly available image-text paired datasets and captioning label-only RS datasets with pre-trained VLM. These constitute the first large-scale RS image-text paired dataset. Additionally, we fine-tuned the CLIP model and tried several Parameter-Efficient Fine-Tuning methods on RS5M to implement the DVLM. Experimental results show that our proposed dataset is highly effective for various tasks, and our model GeoRSCLIP improves upon the baseline or previous state-of-the-art model by 3% ~ 20% in Zero-shot Classification (ZSC) tasks, 3% ~ 6% in Remote Sensing Cross-Modal Text–Image Retrieval (RSCTIR) and 4% ~ 5% in Semantic Localization (SeLo) tasks.

git clone https://huggingface.co/Zilun/GeoRSCLIP
cd GeoRSCLIP
  • Unzip the test data
unzip data/rs5m_test_data.zip

  python codebase/inference.py --ckpt-path /your/local/path/to/RS5M_ViT-B-32.pt --test-dataset-dir /your/local/path/to/rs5m_test_data
  • (Optional) If you just want to load the GeoRSCLIP model:
  import open_clip
  import torch
  from inference_tool import get_preprocess


  ckpt_path = "/your/local/path/to/RS5M_ViT-B-32.pt"
  model, _, _ = open_clip.create_model_and_transforms("ViT-B/32", pretrained="openai")
  checkpoint = torch.load(ckpt_path, map_location="cpu")
  msg = model.load_state_dict(checkpoint, strict=False)
  model = model.to("cuda")
  img_preprocess = get_preprocess(
        image_resolution=224,
  )
  import open_clip
  import torch
  from inference_tool import get_preprocess

  ckpt_path = "/your/local/path/to/RS5M_ViT-H-14.pt"
  model, _, _ = open_clip.create_model_and_transforms("ViT-H/14", pretrained="laion2b_s32b_b79k")
  checkpoint = torch.load(ckpt_path, map_location="cpu")
  msg = model.load_state_dict(checkpoint, strict=False)

Option 1 (Recommended)

  • We create the webdataset format files containing paired image and text for sequential data io. Do NOT untar the files.
  1. Download the webdataset files from the link provided above. The dataset directory should look like this:
        /nas/zilun/RS5M_v5/webdataset

  2. An example of data IO pipeline using webdataset files is provided in "dataloader.py". The throughput (images per second) is ~1800 images per second. (With Ryzen 3950x CPU and dual-channel 3200MHZ DDR4 RAM)
  3. Run the following to have a taste:
    python dataloader.py --train_dir /media/zilun/mx500/RS5M/data/train --val_dir /media/zilun/mx500/RS5M/data/val --num_worker 16 --batch_size 400 --num_shuffle 10000

Option 2

  • We also provide the pure image files, which could be used with the metafiles from huggingface. Due to the huge amount of the image data, an SSD drive is recommended.
  1. Download the files from the Dropbox link or Baidu disk link provided. The dataset directory should look like this:
        /nas/zilun/RS5M_v5/img_only

  2. Combine and untar the files. You will have the images files now.
     # optional, for split and zip the dataset
     tar -I pigz -cvf - pub11 | split --bytes=500MB - pub11.tar.gz_
    
     # combine different parts into one
     cat pub11.tar.gz_* > pub11.tar
    
     # extract
     pigz -dc pub11.tar | tar -xvf - -C /data/zilun/RS5M_v5/img_only/
