divae-tokenizer-cir-448

TerraVision Tokenizer — CIR

A DiVAE (Diffusion VQ-VAE) tokenizer for Color InfraRed aerial imagery (3-channel, uint8) trained on Dutch national geospatial data. Part of the TerraVision-NL project.

Architecture

Geospatial Properties

All TerraVision tokenizers produce the same spatial window in 448 pixels, regardless of the underlying raster resolution. This ensures token grids are spatially aligned across modalities for cross-modal pretraining.

• Pixel size: 0.08 m
• Source: Dutch national CIR photography (Beeldmateriaal HRL 2025)

Normalization

Input data should be normalized before encoding:

• Scheme: standard (clip [0, 255], mean=127.5, std=127.5 → [-1, 1])

See config.json for exact normalization parameters.

Usage

import torch
from huggingface_hub import hf_hub_download
from terratorch.models.backbones.terramind.tokenizer.vqvae import DiVAE

# Download weights and config
weights_path = hf_hub_download(repo_id="YOUR_REPO_ID", filename="tokenizer.pt")

# Instantiate model
tokenizer = DiVAE(
    image_size=448,
    patch_size=16,
    n_channels=3,
    enc_type="vit_b_enc",
    dec_type="unet_patched",
    quant_type="fsq",
    codebook_size="8-8-8-6-5",
    latent_dim=5,
    post_mlp=True,
    norm_codes=True,
)

# Load weights
state_dict = torch.load(weights_path, map_location="cpu")
tokenizer.load_state_dict(state_dict)
tokenizer.eval()

# Encode: image → tokens
x = torch.randn(1, 3, 448, 448)
quant, code_loss, tokens = tokenizer.encode(x)
print(tokens.shape)  # (1, 28, 28)

# Decode: tokens → reconstruction (diffusion sampling)
recon = tokenizer(x, timesteps=50)

Training

Trained with the TerraVision-NL codebase using DiVAE (diffusion-based VQ-VAE) following the TerraMind paper methodology (Section 8.1).

• Checkpoint: cir-best-epoch-0058.ckpt
• Diffusion: 1000 timesteps, linear schedule, predicts sample
