contents We propose PyViT-FUSE, a foundation model for earth observation data explicitly designed to handle multi-modal imagery by learning to fuse an arbitrary number of mixed-resolution input bands into a single representation through an attention mechanism. The learned patch tokens are further processed by a stack of vision transformers with a novel pyramidal structure. We train the model on a globally sampled dataset in a self-supervised manner, leveraging core concepts of the SwAV algorithm. We show the interpretability of the fusion mechanism by visualization of the attention scores and the models applicability to downstream tasks.
