摘要
Building age is fundamental for urban infrastructure safety, operation, and planning, as it directly affects structural safety, and sustainable development. Existing methods mostly rely on detailed building information such as street view, function, or materials, which are harder to obtain than geospatial data like satellite imagery and Digital Surface Models (DSMs). However, existing methods based on those geospatial data mainly rely on optical imagery and local texture features, limiting their ability to capture structural information and distinguish buildings from different periods. Moreover, the inherent temporal ordering among building age categories is often overlooked. To address these limitations, we propose the first deep-learning framework for multi-building age estimation using widely available multi-source geospatial data, including remote sensing data and their derived products, as well as building footprint information that estimates age at both pixel and instance levels within a unified pipeline. Specifically, a large pretrained backbone with fine-tuning adapters extracts representative features, and raster-derived and property-derived fusion modules support pixel-wise and instance-wise predictions. Pixel-level estimation employs a pyramid decoder with Cosine-guided Mixture-of-Experts (CMoE) to fuse multi-source raster data across scales, capturing fine-grained building age differences, while instance-level prediction uses attention pooling and Property-Conditional Adaptive Instance Normalization (PCAdaIN) to extract instance-level representations and integrate property attributes. A Temporal Ordinal Constraint Loss (TOCL) enforces the sequential ordering of predicted ages. We also construct a building age benchmark for Hong Kong to enable comprehensive evaluation. The source code and datasets are available at https://github.com/littlebeen/RS-buildingAge.git.
