Although eXplainable Artificial Intelligence (XAI) has huge potential to glassbox deep learning models, there are challenges in applying it in the domain of Geospatial Artificial Intelligence (GeoAI), specifically Deep Neural Networks. We summarize these challenges, which include the difficulty of selecting reference data/models, the shortcomings of gradients as explanation, the challenges of accommodating geographic scale, the limitations of knowledge scope in the explanation process of GeoAI, the lack of acknowledging non-technical aspects in XAI, the incompatibility of geography in XAI visualization, as well as underlying geographic data analytical processes that are not amenable to XAI.
