Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention belongs to the field of slope surface deformation monitoring technology, specifically a rapid monitoring method for slope surface deformation based on InSAR technology and image recognition. Background Technology

[0002] Slope deformation and failure are the result of the combined effects of internal and external factors. Slope deformation and failure generally exhibit three stages: initial deformation, uniform deformation, and accelerated deformation. The macroscopic deformation characteristics are mainly determined by the microscopic adjustment of the slope's own stress. It is a comprehensive manifestation of the effects of the slope's own structure, groundwater, geological structure, human activities, and external environment (rainfall, earthquakes), and is a macroscopic representation of the slope's dynamic adjustment.

[0003] At present, slope surface deformation ( Figure 1 The main monitoring methods are conventional ones such as total stations and levels, as well as non-contact monitoring methods such as GPS high-precision positioning systems, InSAR remote sensing, micro-deformation monitoring systems, and 3D laser scanners. However, due to the inability of existing technologies to effectively coordinate airborne positioning, corresponding high-precision positioning analysis, and image interpretation, it is not possible to quickly detect surface centering changes and to understand and grasp the evolution and characteristics of slope deformation in a timely manner. Therefore, this application proposes a corresponding solution to address the above problems and provide scientific data for slope deformation zoning and spatiotemporal evolution analysis, as well as basic data for subsequent slope deformation prediction and forecasting.
