Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention belongs to the field of meteorological data processing technology, and in particular relates to a method for rapid retrieval and matching of historical typhoon paths. Background Technology

[0002] my country is one of the countries most severely affected by typhoons. Typhoons (including tropical storms, severe tropical storms, typhoons, strong typhoons, and super typhoons) are highly destructive weather systems that occur over tropical or subtropical oceans. Offshore oil and gas fields in the South my country Sea and East China Sea are significantly impacted by typhoon disasters. Statistics show that an average of 3-4 typhoons pose a major threat to offshore oil and gas platforms each year, causing significant economic losses and personnel safety hazards. Therefore, forecasting the movement paths of typhoons is particularly important for typhoon prevention and disaster mitigation for offshore oil and gas platforms. Historical typhoon similarity paths are a crucial reference factor, and typhoon path similarity retrieval and matching methods are a core technical component of this process.

[0003] Currently, similar typhoon matching algorithms primarily consider typhoon similarity indices, starting with geographical (path) similarity and further using season of occurrence, typhoon direction of movement, and center speed as similarity conditions for matching. A longer "matching duration" results in a larger matching path range, and vice versa. A series of buffer circles are drawn from the typhoon's formation point to its current position. If a typhoon's record point exists within any of these buffer circles, then that historical typhoon is considered a similar typhoon to the current real-time typhoon. However, this method, based on forecast time points, lacks sufficient ability to characterize the linear features of the overall tropical cyclone movement path. Summary of the Invention

[0004] In view of this, the present invention aims to propose a fast retrieval and matching method for the historical path similarity of typhoons, so as to overcome the shortcomings of existing methods in terms of computational complexity and path linearity representation ability.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the technical solution created by this invention is implemented as follows:

[0006] A fast typhoon historical path similarity retrieval and matching method includes the following steps:

[0007] Step S1: Obtain historical typhoon data;

[0008] Step S2: Spatial retrieval and matching of typhoon origin sites. The specific method is as follows: First, obtain the typhoon data to be matched. Using the geographic latitude and longitude coordinates of the current origin 3 of the typhoon to be matched as the center, set a radius of origin site to generate a circular origin site buffer zone 4. Then, use the GIS geographic point inclusion matching method to retrieve similar historical typhoons 2 that fall into the origin site buffer zone 4 from the historical typhoon data.

[0009] Step S3, establishing a typhoon path buffer zone, the specific method is: along the path of the similar historical typhoon is divided into equal distance to get the segmentation key point, with the segmentation key point as the center, set a path radius, draw a plurality of circular key point buffer zone, connect the tangent point outside each key point buffer zone, get the similar historical typhoon path buffer zone; similarly, along the path of the typhoon to be matched is divided into equal distance to get the segmentation key point, with the segmentation key point as the center, set a path radius, draw a plurality of circular key point buffer zone, connect the tangent point outside each key point buffer zone, get the typhoon to be matched path buffer zone;

[0010] Step S4, typhoon buffer zone intersection region extraction, the specific method is: the typhoon to be matched path buffer zone and the similar historical typhoon path buffer zone are intersected and cut one by one by GIS, the typhoon to be matched path buffer zone and the similar historical typhoon path buffer zone are superimposed, and the mutual overlapping common intersection region is obtained;

[0011] Step S5, typhoon buffer intersection region center skeleton line extraction, the specific method is: based on the common intersection region and geographic information image, the center skeleton line of the polygon region is calculated by using image processing technology;

[0012] Step S6, typhoon similarity calculation, the specific method is: according to the length of the center skeleton line and the length of the typhoon to be matched path, the typhoon similarity is obtained;

[0013] Step S7, typhoon path line density estimation, the specific method is: the geographic grid 12 is demarcated, the intersection curve of the typhoon path and the geographic grid 12 is obtained, and the line density probability distribution of all similar historical typhoon paths 13 is calculated by taking the typhoon similarity as a weight, and the center line of the maximum probability region is the typhoon maximum probability occurrence path.

[0014] Compared with the prior art, the typhoon historical path similarity quick retrieval matching method has the following advantages:

[0015] In order to overcome the deficiencies of the prior art method in calculation complexity and path linear representation ability, the application provides a similarity quick retrieval matching technology method based on typhoon path buffer zone intersection degree, which has smaller calculation complexity, can meet the real-time quick application and query, and effectively overcomes the deficiency of the overall representation ability of the time point buffer zone based on the buffer matching technology of the typhoon moving path, so that a typhoon moving path similarity quick and efficient retrieval matching application is realized.
