This paper addresses multi-objective conflicts and catastrophic forgetting in uncrewed aerial vehicle (UAV) networks across dynamic spatiotemporal environments. Conventional multi-agent reinforcement learning (MARL) algorithms suffer from severe policy degradation during sequential task transitions. We propose a spatiotemporal continual federated learning (SCFL) framework driven by the group-decoupled multi-agent proximal policy optimization (G-MAPPO) algorithm. SCFL incorporates a three-stage geometric alignment mechanism: it resolves local gradient conflicts via group-decoupled policy optimization (GDPO), mitigates spatial Non-Independent and Identically Distributed (non-IID) client drift through adaptive cosine aggregation, and suppresses inter-task interference via global temporal orthogonal projection without raw experience replay. Evaluations show that SCFL achieves superior robustness over federated baselines, maintaining spatial service reliability above 0.95 and a load balancing index of approximately 0.95 during non-stationary transitions. A longitudinal self-degradation analysis further shows that SCFL preserves historical knowledge with near-zero performance variation in spatial reliability and QoS under moderate loads from 40 to 120 users, while revealing its operating boundary under extreme congestion with 140 users due to hard projection constraints. The framework provides a scalable, communication-efficient approach for autonomous aerial network orchestration.
