Is there a way to cluster the embeddings spatially or look for patterns isolated so some dimensions? (Again, way out of my wheel house)

What I mean is a vein is usually a few meters wide but can be hundreds of meters long so ten meter resolution is probably not very helpful unless the embeddings can encode some sort of pattern that stretches across many cells.

It's possible to use embeddings as input to a convolutional network and then train that using labels. We've done that for at least one of the downstream tasks in the TESSERA paper: https://arxiv.org/abs/2506.20380 to estimate canopy height.

The downside of that approach is that you need to spend valuable labels on learning the spatial feature extraction during training. To fix that we're working on building some pre-trained spatial feature extractors that you should only need to minimally fine-tune.
