Abstract

The invention discloses an automatic detection method and system for an electric power tower based on 3D laser scanning technology of an unmanned aerial vehicle. The method is a method for extractingand identifying an electric power tower by using a laser point cloud technology and a laser point cloud and visible light image registration technology. According to the invention, a symmetric function and a human eye visual saliency detection technology are used to extract a power tower area in an image, a power tower is extracted according to K-means clustering, and the power tower image is fused according to line feature matching and a mutual information value image registration technology so as to detect the power tower. According to the electric power tower automatic detection system andmethod based on the 3D laser scanning technology of the unmanned aerial vehicle, the electric power tower can be accurately recognized and positioned, and the requirements of the unmanned aerial vehicle for electric power tower safety automatic detection and tracking are met.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of inspection of power transmission lines, in particular to an automatic detection method and system for power towers based on 3D laser scanning technology of unmanned aerial vehicles. Background technique [0002] Power towers are an important part of the power system. With the development of smart grid technology, people have put forward higher requirements for the management ability and security of the power grid. The good facility status of the power tower is of great significance to the smooth operation of the power grid. Due to the complex and harsh geographical environment, after the power tower has been in operation for a long time, due to the long-term effects of various forces, the tower components may be missing, the tower may be tilted, etc., and the manual inspection method not only consumes a lot of manpower and material resources, but also It may bring many security risks, making more in-depth work una...
