Large models have accelerated the development of intelligent interpretation in remote sensing. Many remote sensing foundation models (RSFM) have emerged in recent years, sparking a new wave of deep learning in this field. Fine-tuning techniques serve as a bridge between remote sensing downstream tasks and advanced foundation models. As RSFMs become more powerful, fine-tuning techniques are expected to lead the next research frontier in numerous critical remote sensing applications. Advanced fine-tuning techniques can reduce the data and computational resource requirements during the downstream adaptation process. Current fine-tuning techniques for remote sensing are still in their early stages, leaving a large space for optimization and application. To elucidate the current development and future trends of remote sensing fine-tuning techniques, this survey offers a comprehensive overview of recent research. Specifically, this survey summarizes the applications and innovations of each work and categorizes recent remote sensing fine-tuning techniques into six types: adapter-based, prompt-based, reparameterization-based, hybrid methods, partial tuning, and improved tuning. In the final section, this survey suggests nine areas worth exploring in this field.
