HuiYanEarth-SAR: A Foundation Model for High-Fidelity and Low-Cost Global Remote Sensing Imagery Generation
This work provides a low-cost, high-fidelity SAR image generator for remote sensing researchers, enabling global-scale simulation and digital twin construction.
HuiYanEarth-SAR is the first foundation model for generating high-fidelity SAR imagery globally from geographic coordinates, addressing the data scarcity bottleneck by integrating geospatial priors and scattering mechanisms.
Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) imagery generation is essential for deepening the study of scattering mechanisms, establishing trustworthy electromagnetic scene models, and fundamentally alleviating the data scarcity bottleneck that constrains development in this field. However, existing methods find it difficult to simultaneously ensure high fidelity in both global geospatial semantics and microscopic scattering mechanisms, resulting in severe challenges for global generation. To address this, we propose \textbf{HuiYanEarth-SAR}, the first foundational SAR imagery generation model based on AlphaEarth and integrated scattering mechanisms. By injecting geospatial priors to control macroscopic structures and utilizing implicit scattering characteristic modeling to ensure the authenticity of microscopic textures, we achieve the capability of generating high-fidelity SAR images for global locations solely based on geographic coordinates. This study not only constructs an efficient SAR scene simulator but also establishes a bridge connecting geography, scatter mechanism, and artificial intelligence from a methodological standpoint. It advances SAR research by expanding the paradigm from perception and understanding to simulation and creation, providing key technical support for constructing a high-confidence digital twin of the Earth.
