Shortcut Learning in Geospatial Foundation Model Embeddings for Cross-Disaster Damage Assessment
Geospatial foundation models can support disaster damage assessment, but high accuracy on familiar disasters may hide shortcut learning: prediction from event or scene characteristics rather than evidence that transfers to a new disaster. We study embeddings from TerraMind, Prithvi-EO-2.0, DOFA, and DINOv3 on the multi...
