PANGAEA: A Global and Inclusive Benchmark for Geospatial Foundation Models. While geospatial foundation models (GFMs) have proliferated rapidly, their evaluations remain inconsistent and narrow. Existing works often utilize suboptimal downstream datasets (e.g., EuroSAT) and tasks (e.g., land cover classification), which constrain comparability and real-world usability. Additionally, a lack of diversity in evaluation protocols, including image resolution and sensor types, further complicates the extensive assessments of GFM performance.

To bridge this gap, we propose a standardized evaluation protocol that incorporates a wide-ranging selection of datasets, tasks, resolutions, and sensor types, establishing a robust and widely applicable benchmark for GFMs.
