OpenEarth-Agent: From Tool Calling to Tool Creation for Open-Environment Earth Observation
Earth Observation (EO) is essential for perceiving dynamic land surface changes, yet deploying autonomous EO in open environments is hindered by the immense diversity of multi-source data and heterogeneous tasks. While remote sensing agents have emerged to streamline EO workflows, existing tool-calling agents are confined to closed environments. They rely on pre-defined tools and are restricted to narrow scope, limiting their generalization to the diverse data and tasks. To overcome these limitations, we introduce OpenEarth-Agent, the first tool-creation agent framework tailored for open-environment EO. Rather than calling predefined tools, OpenEarth-Agent employs adaptive workflow planning and tool creation to generalize to unseen data and tasks. This adaptability is bolstered by an open-ended integration of multi-stage tools and cross-domain knowledge bases, enabling robust execution in the entire EO pipeline across multiple application domains. To comprehensively evaluate EO agents in open environments, we propose OpenEarth-Bench, a novel benchmark comprising 596 real-world, full-pipeline cases across seven application domains, explicitly designed to assess agents' adaptive planning and tool creation capabilities. Only essential pre-trained model tools are provided in this benchmark, devoid of any other predefined task-specific tools. Extensive experiments demonstrate that OpenEarth-Agent successfully masters full-pipeline EO across multiple domains in the open environment. Notably, on the cross-benchmark Earth-Bench, our tool-creating agent equipped with 6 essential pre-trained models achieves performance comparable to tool-calling agents relying on 104 specialized tools, and significantly outperforms them when provided with the complete toolset. In several cases, the created tools exhibit superior robustness to data anomalies compared to human-engineered counterparts.
