Geographic Neural Data Cube Project
GeoNDC emerged from research at Beijing Normal University's Advanced Interdisciplinary Institute of Satellite Applications, addressing a fundamental challenge in earth observation: the exponential growth of satellite data outpacing our ability to store, transmit, and analyze it.
Traditional remote sensing data cubes store raw spectral bands, requiring massive storage infrastructure and limiting accessibility. GeoNDC proposes a paradigm shift: instead of storing what satellites saw, we store how the Earth works. By learning implicit neural representations of planetary vegetation dynamics, we achieve unprecedented compression while enabling instant spatial queries.
The project name reflects our core innovation: compressing global earth observation data into neural network weights that can be "executed" like programs, querying any location instantly without decompression.
