Apache-2.0 code, CC-BY-4.0 weights

Panopticon accepts RGB, multispectral, hyperspectral and radar imagery through one encoder, with optical bands described by center wavelength and radar by polarization. It returns embeddings for linear probes, nearest-neighbor search and dense prediction heads.

Hyperspectral input carries a cost: the patch-embedding step grows steeply with the number of bands, and pretraining used at most 13 channels at a time.

The code is Apache-2.0. Upstream labels the weights CC-BY-4.0; crediting Waldmann, Shah et al. (2025) satisfies the terms.

Run Panopticon on your data

The lab runs this on its own compute, in a container, with the inputs and parameters recorded alongside the result. Initial scoping conversations are free.
