If the value exceeds the specified threshold, a pipeline leakage warning is triggered, the range of the abnormal value is delimited, and the leakage level of the pipeline is judged by combining the temperature difference between the leakage point and the surrounding surface.
[0084] Anomaly value detection is carried out by performing time series analysis and change detection on the surface temperature simulation data, checking the surface temperature pixel by pixel, locking the abnormal temperature value near the heat pipeline, and obtaining the geographical coordinate information of the abnormal value.
