MoCoLSK: Modality Conditioned High-Resolution Downscaling for Land Surface Temperature

Land Surface Temperature (LST) is a critical parameter for environmental studies, but directly obtaining high spatial resolution LST data remains challenging due to the spatio-temporal trade-off in satellite remote sensing. Guided LST downscaling has emerged as an alternative solution to overcome these limitations, but current methods often neglect spatial non-stationarity, and there is a lack of an open-source ecosystem for deep learning methods. In this paper, we propose the Modality-Conditional Large Selective Kernel (MoCoLSK) Network, a novel architecture that dynamically fuses multi-modal data through modality-conditioned projections. MoCoLSK achieves a confluence of dynamic receptive field adjustment and multi-modal feature fusion, leading to enhanced LST prediction accuracy. Furthermore, we establish the GrokLST project, a comprehensive open-source ecosystem featuring the GrokLST dataset, a high-resolution benchmark, and the GrokLST toolkit, an open-source PyTorch-based toolkit encapsulating MoCoLSK alongside 40+ state-of-the-art approaches. Extensive experimental results validate MoCoLSK's effectiveness in capturing complex dependencies and subtle variations within multispectral data, outperforming existing methods in LST downscaling.
