SimCRAFT addresses the critical bottleneck of deploying remote sensing agents by distilling domain-specific orchestration capabilities into a compact 7B-scale model, reducing reliance on massive general-purpose LLMs. The framework leverages synthetic trajectory generation and retrieval-augmented fine-tuning to enable robust, multi-step workflow planning under resource-constrained conditions. This approach offers a viable path toward efficient autonomous deployment for Earth observation tasks without sacrificing performance against closed-source models.
SimCRAFT: Distilling Remote Sensing Agents via Synthetic Trajectories and Contextual Retrieval-Augmented Fine-Tuning
arXiv:2608.30277v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: The unprecedented surge in Earth observation data volume and diversity has exposed a critical bottleneck for traditional manual workflows, catalyzing the emergence of Remote Sensing (RS) Agents. However, the practical deployment of these advanced agents is severely hindered by their heavy reliance on large-scale general-purpose LLMs, which lack deep domain expertise and impose prohibitive infrastructure demands. To resolve this, we propose SimCRAFT, a model-agnostic framework that distills sophisticated RS orchestration capabilities into a compact 7B-scale model. Addressing data scarcity, we first pair a multiagent synthesis engine with a Mock Execution Engine that checks schema correctness, inter-tool dependencies, and sensor/tool compatibility, producing SimRS-14k, a large-scale, constraint-validated workflow planning corpus. Second, we propose Contextual Retrieval-Augmented Fine-Tuning (CRAFT) that finetunes the model to reason analogically by adapting retrieved Standard Operating Procedures to novel queries under a noise-robust objective, generalizing RAFT to multi-step RS workflow planning without mechanical copying. Extensive experiments demonstrate that SimCRAFT-7B significantly outperforms openweights LLMs and rivals advanced closedsource models and specialized RS agents, while reproducing across three 7B backbones. This work contributes a competitive open-weights baseline for lightweight RS intelligence, enabling efficient autonomous deployment under resource-constrained or resource-conserving conditions.
