contents Multimodal Large Language Models (MLLMs) have made significant strides in natural images and satellite remote sensing images. However, understanding low-altitude drone scenarios remains a challenge. Existing datasets primarily focus on a few specific low-altitude visual tasks, which cannot fully assess the ability of MLLMs in real-world low-altitude UAV applications. Therefore, we introduce UAVBench, a comprehensive benchmark, and UAVIT-1M, a large-scale instruction tuning dataset, designed to evaluate and improve MLLMs' abilities in low-altitude vision-language tasks. UAVBench comprises 43 test units and 966k high-quality data samples across 10 tasks at the image-level and region-level. UAVIT-1M consists of approximately 1.24 million diverse instructions, covering 789k multi-scene images and about 2,000 types of spatial resolutions with 11 distinct tasks. UAVBench and UAVIT-1M feature pure real-world visual images and rich weather conditions, and involve manual verification to ensure high quality. Our in-depth analysis of 11 state-of-the-art MLLMs using UAVBench reveals that open-source MLLMs cannot generate accurate conversations about low-altitude visual content, lagging behind closed-source MLLMs. Extensive experiments demonstrate that fine-tuning open-source MLLMs on UAVIT-1M significantly addresses this gap. Our contributions pave the way for bridging the gap between current MLLMs and low-altitude UAV real-world application demands. (Project page: https://UAVBench.github.io/)
