arXiv:2610.00302v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Crowdsourced imagery provides timely, fine-grained, street-level observations for disaster mapping, complementing conventional remote sensing imagery (RSI) during emergency response. However, such imagery is often unstructured, spatially ambiguous, and lacks reliable geographic metadata, making manual geolocalization and interpretation labor-intensive and difficult to scale. This work proposes a multi-task Geospatial Reasoning Disaster mapping framework, namely GRDisaster, to examine the potential of vision-language models (VLMs) in understandi
