Due to various factors, many reservoir dams have safety hazards such as leakage, which poses a great threat to the operation function of the reservoir, the safety of people's lives and property, and will also pollute the surrounding environment. Therefore, accurate detection of leakage hazards in reservoir dams is crucial; existing dam leakage detection methods, such as electrical methods, electromagnetic methods, elastic wave methods and other representative methods can only speculate the leakage area of the dam, and fail to accurately detect the leakage channel, which in turn affects the subsequent repair work of personnel and cannot meet the use needs.
