| contents | Semantic segmentation of 3D geospatial point clouds is fundamental to remote sensing applications, yet domain shifts caused by regional and acquisition-related variations often degrade model performance. Although domain adaptation can mitigate such shifts, existing methods typically require access to source-domain data, which is often infeasible due to privacy concerns and regulatory policies. To address this, we propose LoGo (Local-Global Dual-Consensus), a novel source-free unsupervised domain adaptation (SFUDA) framework requiring only a pretrained model and unlabeled target data. At the local level, we introduce a class-balanced prototype estimation module that ensures that robust feature prototypes can be generated even for sample-scarce tail classes, effectively mitigating the feature collapse caused by long-tailed distributions. At the global level, we introduce an optimal transport-based global distribution alignment module that formulates pseudo-label assignment as a global optimization problem, effectively correcting the over-dominance of head classes inherent in local greedy assignments, and thereby preventing model predictions from being severely biased towards majority classes. Finally, we propose a dual-consistency pseudo-label filtering mechanism that retains only high-confidence pseudo-labels where local multi-augmented ensemble predictions align with global optimal transport assignments for self-training. Extensive experiments on two challenging benchmarks, encompassing cross-scene and cross-sensor settings, demonstrate that LoGo consistently outperforms existing state-of-the-art methods.
