# 🌍 EarthDial-Dataset

The **EarthDial-Dataset** is a curated collection of evaluation-only datasets focused on remote sensing and Earth observation downstream tasks. It is designed to benchmark **vision-language models (VLMs)** and **multimodal reasoning systems** on real-world scenarios involving satellite and aerial imagery.

---

## 📚 Key Features

- **Evaluation-focused**: All datasets are for inference/testing only — no train/val splits.
- **Diverse Tasks**:
  - Classification
  - Object Detection
  - Change Detection
  - Grounding Description
  - Region Captioning
  - Image Captioning
  - Visual Question Answering (GeoChat Bench)
- **Remote Sensing Specific**: Tailored for multispectral, RGB, and high-resolution satellite data.
- **Multimodal Format**: Includes images, questions, captions, annotations, and geospatial metadata.

## 🗂️ Dataset Structure

The dataset is structured under the root folder:  
`EarthDial_downstream_task_datasets/`

Each task has its own subdirectory with `.arrow`-formatted shards, structured as:

```bash
EarthDial_downstream_task_datasets/
│
├── Classification/
│   ├── AID/
│   │   └── test/data-00000-of-00001.arrow
