AerialMetric is a real-world UAV monocular metric depth benchmark covering oblique photogrammetry, controlled aerial variables, in-the-wild UAV videos, and adapted MoGe-2 baselines.

</div>

## News
- ✅ **2026-07-24:** The code repository is now publicly available and includes both inference and benchmark scripts.
- 🎉 **2026-06-18:** AerialMetric was accepted to ECCV 2026.

## Benchmark Entry Points

```bash
cd /path/to/AerialMetric
```

The repository is organized into three benchmark interfaces:

| Directory | Purpose |
|---|---|
| `MoGe/` | Aerial benchmark for MoGe2 and AerialMetric  |
| `Ground_MoGe/` | Ground benchmark for MoGe2 and AerialMetric |
| `Depth_Baselines/` | Ground benchmark wrappers for UniDepth, DepthPro, and ZoeDepth |

Dataset layout requirements are documented in `DATA_ORGANIZATION.md`.

## Environment Setup

```bash
conda create -n mogefresh3 python=3.10 -y
conda activate mogefresh3
pip install torch torchvision --index-url https://download.pytorch.org/whl/cu124
pip install -r requirements.txt
pip install -e MoGe/
```

Verify:

```bash
python -c "import torch; print(f'PyTorch {torch.__version__}, CUDA: {torch.cuda.is_available()}')"
python -c "from moge.model.v2 import MoGeModel; print('MoGe OK')"
```

## Reproduction

Edit paths in `benchmark.sh` to match your local setup, then run:

```bash
# 4 GPUs in parallel (recommended)
bash benchmark.sh 0,1,2,3

# Single GPU
bash benchmark.sh 0
```

The script runs all experiments automatically:

| Type          | Experiment | Datasets                    | Intrinsics             | Mask | Models                       |
| ------------- | ---------: | --------------------------- | ---------------------- | ---- | ---------------------------- |
| Aerial Scenes |          1 | Decoupled + Oblique + Wild  | none                   | load | Baseline + MoGe2-Aerial LoRA |
| Aerial Scenes |          2 | Decoupled + Oblique (norm)  | load                   | load | Baseline + MoGe2-Aerial LoRA |
| Ground Scenes |          3 | Ground ×7 (NYUv2, KITTI, …) | no oracle              | —    | Baseline + MoGe2-Aerial LoRA |
| Ground Scenes |          4 | Ground ×7                   | oracle (GT intrinsics) | —    | Baseline + MoGe2-Aerial LoRA |

Results are saved to `OUTPUT_ROOT` (default: `/data1/szq/622-freash3`) with per-dataset evaluation reports (`.txt` / `.json`).

Weights:
- MoGe2(Baseline): [MoGe-2 ViT-Large](https://huggingface.co/Ruicheng/moge-2-vitl-normal)
- MoG2-Aerial(LoRA Type): [AerialMetric-ECCV2026](https://huggingface.co/datasets/Kuiee/AerialMetric-ECCV2026)

Dataset layout: see `DATA_ORGANIZATION.md`. Ground config: edit `Ground_MoGe/configs/eval/ground_metric_benchmarks_local.json`.

## Quick Demo — Single Image / Video / Folder Inference

```bash
# Base model (single image)
python demo_infer.py \
  --input photo.jpg \
  --model vitl \
  --checkpoint /path/to/vitl-normal.pt \
  --output ./demo_output

# Aerial LoRA model (video, every 5th frame)
python demo_infer.py \
  --input video.mp4 \
  --model lora \
  --checkpoint /path/to/Moge2-Aerial.pt \
  --lora_config MoGe/configs/Final_train/config-lora-all.json \
  --output ./demo_output \
  --stride 5

# Full options example
python demo_infer.py \
  --input ./images/ \
  --model lora \
  --checkpoint /path/to/Moge2-Aerial.pt \
  --lora_config MoGe/configs/Final_train/config-lora-all.json \
  --output ./demo_output \
  --resize 1024 \
  --resolution_level 9 \
  --cmap inferno \
  --save_components
