Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of geological disaster prevention and remote sensing application technology, and in particular to a method, system, equipment, medium and product for assessing the susceptibility of debris flows in a single gully. Background Technology

[0002] In the mountainous regions of southwestern China, complex terrain and geological conditions, frequent extreme weather events, and particularly severe debris flow disasters, are prevalent. The greater the sediment source within a watershed, the higher the probability of debris flows and the more severe the damage, posing a serious challenge to the lives and property of local people. As a crucial link in disaster prevention and mitigation, single-gully debris flow susceptibility assessment currently employs two main methods: empirical scoring and machine learning. However, empirical scoring is highly subjective, relying on expert experience and lacking objective and unified standards; machine learning algorithms require extensive training with weights inherently assigned by the algorithm, making explicit expression difficult. Therefore, there is an urgent need for a debris flow susceptibility probability calculation model that requires no training, has transparent expressions, and can be quantified.

[0003] As a crucial link in disaster prevention and mitigation, the assessment of single-gully debris flow susceptibility has two major limitations in existing methods: first, the quantification of debris flow susceptibility probability by material source is coarse; second, the assessment model is decoupled, simply piling up topographic and material source parameters without comprehensive parameters that can characterize the "intrinsic ratio between topographic convergence capacity and material source supply," resulting in unclear physical mechanisms and limited accuracy of the model, making it impossible to conduct refined and categorized debris flow susceptibility assessments. Summary of the Invention

[0004] The purpose of this application is to provide a method, system, equipment, medium, and product for assessing the susceptibility of debris flows in a single ditch, in order to solve the problem of refined and classified debris flow susceptibility assessment.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, this application provides the following solution.

[0007] Acquire remote sensing images and LiDAR data of the target watershed, and identify and interpret channel and slope sources within the target watershed based on the remote sensing images and LiDAR data.

[0008] For each slope source obtained from the interpretation, a first feature parameter is extracted, and for each gully source obtained from the interpretation, a second feature parameter is extracted.

[0009] The contribution of the slope source is calculated based on the first characteristic parameter of the slope source, and the contribution of the gully source is calculated based on the second characteristic parameter of the gully source.

[0010] Substituting the slope material source contribution and the gully material source contribution into the preset debris flow susceptibility probability calculation model, the debris flow susceptibility probability value is calculated.

[0011] Based on the debris flow susceptibility probability value, the debris flow gullies in the target watershed are divided into different susceptibility levels to assess the susceptibility of debris flows in a single gully.

[0012] Secondly, this application provides a single-ditch debris flow susceptibility assessment system, which includes the following modules.

[0015] The contribution calculation module is used to calculate the contribution of the slope material source based on the first characteristic parameter of the slope material source, and to calculate the contribution of the gully material source based on the second characteristic parameter of the gully material source.

[0016] The debris flow susceptibility probability calculation module is used to substitute the slope material source contribution and the gully material source contribution into a preset debris flow susceptibility probability calculation model to calculate the debris flow susceptibility probability value.

[0017] The single-ditch debris flow susceptibility assessment module is used to classify debris flow gullies in the target watershed into different susceptibility levels based on the debris flow susceptibility probability value, so as to assess the single-ditch debris flow susceptibility.
