This paper explores the ability of Large-scale Vision-Language Models (LVLMs) to explain temporal changes between satellite images taken at different times. Manual dataset construction for this task is costly and time-consuming, making human-AI collaboration a promising approach. The authors investigate how LVLMs can be used to capture temporal changes between satellite images, proposing three prompting methods to deal with the unique challenge of processing pairs of images as input. Through human evaluation, the authors found that their step-by-step reasoning-based prompting method is effective in leveraging LVLMs for this task.

Imagine trying to understand what’s changed in a city over time using only old and new satellite photos. This is a big challenge because we need to compare two images taken at different times. Right now, it takes a lot of work to create the data needed to do this. To make things easier, humans can work together with computers to help solve this problem. In this paper, researchers try to figure out if powerful computer models called Large-scale Vision-Language Models (LVLMs) can be used to understand what’s changed in satellite images over time. They came up with new ways to ask these computer models questions and found that one of their methods works really well.
