🗺️ CVG-Text: Cross-View Geo-localization with Natural Language Descriptions
Paper: Where am I? Cross-View Geo-localization with Natural Language Descriptions (ICCV 2025)
🧭 Overview
CVG-Text is the first large-scale dataset designed for Cross-View Geo-localization with Natural Language Descriptions, aiming to bridge text, street-view images, satellite imagery, and OpenStreetMap (OSM) data.
The dataset enables models to localize places from textual descriptions by retrieving corresponding visual or map-based views, forming a new benchmark for multimodal geospatial understanding.
🌍 Key Features
| Aspect | Description |
|---|---|
| Task | Cross-view retrieval between natural language text and geo-visual data |
| Modalities | Street-view (panorama + single-view), Satellite images, OSM maps, Scene text |
| Cities | 3 (e.g., Brisbane, New York, Wuhan) |
| Coordinates | 30,000+ unique locations |
| Annotations | LMM-enhanced scene descriptions |
🧩 Dataset Structure
The dataset consists of query-view images, satellite-view images, and corresponding textual annotations.
