Remote sensing image retrieval (RSIR) aims to search and retrieve the images of interest from a large remote sensing image archive, which has remained to be a hot topic over the past decade. Benefited from the advent and progress of deep learning, RSIR has been promoted by developing novel approaches, constructing new datasets, and exploring potential applications. To the best of our knowledge, there lacks a comprehensive review of RSIR achievements, including systematic and hierarchical categorization of RSIR methods and benchmark datasets over the past decade. This article, therefore, provides a systematic survey of the recently published RSIR methods and benchmarks by reviewing more than 200 papers. To be specific, in terms of image source, label, and modality, we first group the RSIR methods into some hierarchical categories, each of which is reviewed in detail. Following the categorization …
