📝 Abstract
Pixel-level cross-view geo-registration aims to align a query image (e.g., drone) to a geo-referenced satellite map so that every query pixel can be mapped to real-world GPS coordinates. Despite strong progress in cross-view geo-localization, existing benchmarks largely provide only GPS labels, limiting evaluation to a single coordinate per image and leaving dense geodetic alignment underexplored. We introduce SkyReg, a dataset and standardized benchmark for pixel-level drone-to-satellite geo-registration, providing dense per-pixel geo-location supervision across diverse settings (orthographic and perspective), scene types (urban, landmark-centric, suburban/rural), and camera configurations. Using SkyReg, we evaluate a broad set of baselines spanning retrieval, feature matching, homography-based alignment, and feed-forward 3D reconstruction. Finally, cross-view pairs from SkyReg, we train a geometry-aware reconstruction pipeline that achieves state-of-the-art results,improving performance by a significant margin.
