Abstract
The application discloses a surveying-based binary structure small watershed division method and system, and particularly relates to the field of watershed division. Basic data processing of the application includes collecting and preprocessing topography, remote sensing and other data, establishing a basic database, converting vector contour line data into DEM and filling in depressions, generating a non-depression DEM, determining water flow direction by using a D8 algorithm, calculating cumulative flow, and generating a river network. The river channel is converted into a vector runoff network, the sub-watershed range is extracted and mapped, the outcrop point of underground river or karst spring is taken as a corrosion reference, the watershed outlet is determined in combination with the main river channel of a large river, and a complete correlation system is constructed. Finally, the development of the underground water system pipeline is determined through hydrogeological investigation, geophysical prospecting, drilling and pumping test, the results of comprehensive investigation, geophysical prospecting, drilling and pumping test are comprehensively considered to accurately correct the boundary of the underground water system, and the underground water system distribution map conforming to the actual conditions is formed in combination with remote sensing images and administrative division maps.
