Semantic segmentation of glaciological features across multiple remote sensing platforms with the Segment Anything Model (SAM) by Siddharth Shankar, Leigh A. Stearns, C. J. van der Veen

“…We show that the Segment Anything Model performs well for different features (icebergs, glacier termini, supra-glacial lakes, crevasses), in different environmental settings (open water, mélange, and sea ice), with different sensors (Sentinel-1, Sentinel-2, Planet, timelapse photographs) and different spatial resolutions. Due to the performance, versatility, and cross-platform adaptability of SAM, we conclude that it is a powerful and robust model for cryosphere research.…”
