ORBITALIF: An Efficient Spiking Federated Learning Framework for Onboard Cloud Removal

arXiv · AI, language, vision and robotics · article · Aug 25, 2026 · UTC

Low-earth-orbit (LEO) satellites enable high-resolution, large-scale Earth observation for applications such as disaster monitoring and environmental surveillance. However, cloud coverage often obscures the Earth's surface, and conventional cloud-removal pipelines that download cloudy images to ground stations for processing suffer from limited contact windows, constrained satellite-to-ground bandwidth, and high latency. In this work, we propose a novel satellite federated learning framework for cloud removal across LEO constellations, named orbital attention leaky integrate-and-fire (OrbitALI
