Abstract: We present the OpenEarthMap benchmark suite, designed for global high-resolution land cover mapping and change analysis, and showcase its applications. This comprehensive expansion aims to strengthen OpenEarthMap’s versatility, covering various aspects such as increasing dataset diversity through synthetic data, developing lightweight models, improving land cover change detection with OpenStreetMap, and facilitating high-resolution mapping on a national scale.
