| ## Overview |
| This dataset provides global, dense embeddings of Earth surface imagery extracted using a pre-trained DINOv2 model. It is part of the Major TOM project and is featured in the paper **"EarthEmbeddingExplorer: A Web Application for Cross-Modal Retrieval of Global Satellite Images"**. |

| ## Input Data |
| * Sentinel-2 (Level 2A) RGB reflectance multiplied by 2.5 and clipped between 0 and 1 to resemble images in the training data |
| * All samples from [**MajorTOM Core-S2LA**](https://huggingface.co/datasets/Major-TOM/Core-S2L2A) |
| * Image input size: **224 x 224** pixels, target overlap: 10%, border_shift: True |
|
|
| ## Model |
| The image encoder of the [**DINOv2 model**](https://huggingface.co/docs/transformers/en/model_doc/dinov2) was used to extract embeddings. |
|
|
| ## Example Use |
| Interface scripts are available at |
|
|
| ```python |
| from datasets import load_dataset |
| dataset = load_dataset("Major-TOM/Core-S2RGB-DINOv2") |
| ``` |
|
|
| ## Generate Your Own Major TOM Embeddings |
|
|
| The [**embedder**](https://github.com/ESA-PhiLab/Major-TOM/tree/main/src/embedder) subpackage of Major TOM provides tools for generating embeddings like these ones. You can see an example of this in a dedicated notebook at https://github.com/ESA-PhiLab/Major-TOM/blob/main/05-Generate-Major-TOM-Embeddings.ipynb. |

| ## Major TOM Global Embeddings Project 🏭 |
| This dataset is a result of a collaboration between [**CloudFerro**](https://cloudferro.com/) 🔶 and [**Φ-lab, European Space Agency (ESA)**](https://philab.esa.int/) 🛰️ set up in order to provide open and free vectorised expansions of Major TOM datasets and define a standardised manner for releasing Major TOM embedding expansions. |
|
|
| The embeddings extracted from common AI models make it possible to browse and navigate large datasets like Major TOM with reduced storage and computational demand. |
|
|
| The datasets were computed on the [**GPU-accelerated instances**](https://cloudferro.com/ai/ai-computing-services/)⚡ provided by [**CloudFerro**](https://cloudferro.com/) 🔶 on the [**CREODIAS**](https://creodias.eu/) cloud service platform 💻☁️. |
