[0002] Spartina is an excellent pioneer plant on the seashore. It is tolerant to flooding, salt and silt. It can form dense communities on the beach to protect the beach and shore, improve soil, and promote siltation and land reclamation. However, some of its populations spread through human activities or with the help of natural forces, and are easy to breed and spread in coastal wetlands to form dominant populations. Spartina alterniflora has a large area and high density. It competes with local plants on coastal beaches for growth space, crowds out other plants, and changes the original ecosystem of the beach. Severe invasion will cause a decrease in biodiversity and ecosystem degradation, destroy the habitats of offshore organisms such as invertebrates and various seabirds; reduce the mass of planktonic and benthic biomass, and suffocate and die coastal shellfish, crabs, algae, fish and other organisms; affect the exchange capacity of seawater, easily induce red tides, and deteriorate the water quality environment; compete for nutrients, causing the production of kelp and laver to decline year by year; occupy waterways, silt up ports, affect the departure of various ships, and bring inconvenience to marine fisheries and transportation industries. With the expansion of its population, Spartina alterniflora has spread to almost all coastal areas of my country, changing the local natural environment and ecosystem, and seriously threatening the ecological, economic and social security of the introduced areas.

[0065] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0066] The present invention establishes a complete set of processes from image capture to Spartina alterniflora identification, including data preprocessing, feature extraction, classifier training and result verification. It forms a rapid identification capability for the distribution of Spartina alterniflora in other areas. It builds an early warning and response mechanism so that timely measures can be taken in the early stage of the spread of Spartina alterniflora.

[0067] like Figure 1 As shown, the first aspect of the embodiment of the present invention discloses a method for extracting the spatial distribution of wetland vegetation based on remote sensing images, comprising the following steps:

[0068] Model training steps:

[0069] Obtain remote sensing images of Spartina alterniflora and other wetland vegetation, label the samples of Spartina alterniflora in the remote sensing images, and establish a sample data set; use the sample data set to train a support vector machine (SVM) to obtain a trained SVM supervised learning model;

[0070] Distribution extraction steps:

[0071] Use drones to collect multiple remote sensing images of wetland vegetation in the wetland area in real time; stitch multiple remote sensing images to obtain a DEM model, and generate a complete visible light orthophoto of the wetland area; input the complete visible light orthophoto of the wetland area into the trained SVM supervised learning model to obtain a wetland vegetation extraction map and a Spartina alterniflora extraction map; calculate the area of ​​the wetland vegetation extraction map and the Spartina alterniflora extraction map to obtain the wetland vegetation area and the Spartina alterniflora area.

[0072] In this embodiment, the drone is equipped with an all-round visual system and an infrared sensor system, which can stably hover and fly indoors and outdoors, and has automatic return and obstacle sensing functions. The drone can detect the surrounding aircraft and support password protection to ensure the security of equipment and data. The drone is equipped with an infrared camera and a visible light camera, which can capture thermal images and visible light images at the same time. The infrared camera can record videos with a resolution of 640×512. The visible light camera can record 4K videos and take 48-megapixel photos, and supports 32x digital zoom.

[0073] In one embodiment, the real-time geographic location information of the drone is obtained based on the RTK positioning algorithm to achieve high-precision positioning function, and multiple remote sensing images of wetland vegetation in the wetland area are collected in real time according to the predetermined sampling flight route. The RTK module is equipped for execution.

[0074] The RTK (Real Time Kinematic) positioning algorithm is a real-time dynamic positioning technology based on carrier phase observations. It can provide real-time three-dimensional positioning results of the measuring station in a specified coordinate system, provide centimeter-level positioning accuracy for drones, and reduce aerial photography and modeling errors.

[0075] This embodiment integrates satellite images, aerial photography images, geographic information systems (GIS) and key geographic data to enable users to browse high-definition images of all parts of the world in a virtual three-dimensional space. A variety of operations are supported in the three-dimensional space, such as searching for specific locations, viewing terrain and 3D buildings, exploring historical images, and the ocean and starry sky.

[0076] The preliminary preparation work of this embodiment also includes planning the flight route of the drone sampling:

[0077] Users can create complex map views, perform spatial analysis, and manage geographic databases. In the study of planning drone sampling flight routes, the intuitive interface and rich images of virtual 3D space can be used to quickly identify key features of the study area, such as terrain undulations, building distribution, and potential obstacles. The precise location of sampling points can be determined in the virtual 3D map, and the distance and height differences between points can be evaluated.

[0078] Conduct more in-depth route analysis based on multiple factors such as terrain, land use, and environmental protection areas. Optimize flight paths to ensure that drones follow the most economical flight routes while meeting sampling needs and avoid no-fly zones and high-risk areas. This embodiment can efficiently plan safe and efficient drone sampling flight routes. The feasibility of the route can be further ensured through simulated flight and real-time adjustments. Share geographic locations and paths in KML (Keyhole Markup Language) or KMZ file formats to facilitate the acquisition of drone flight routes.

[0079] like Figure 2As shown, the total area of ​​the study area of ​​this embodiment is 5210 hectares, and a total of 8 sampling areas with an area of ​​1023 hectares were flown in the study area. The image acquisition time is 8-12 am, sunny to cloudy weather, and the temperature is 20°C. The shooting route planning is set, the average route length is 22000m, the flight altitude is 120m, the flight speed is 8m / s, the photo mode is equidistant 20m, the GSD (Ground Sampling Distance) resolution is 3.67cm / pixel, the lateral overlap rate is 65%, and the heading overlap rate is 75%. After the setting is completed, the drone will automatically perform aerial photography according to the planned route. Each block takes about 40 minutes, and all eight areas have a total of 5435 corresponding images of visible light images and thermal infrared images.

[0080] like Figure 6 As shown, a total of 11,080 images were collected, half of which were visible light images and half were thermal imaging images.

[0081] In one embodiment, the steps of generating a complete visible light orthophoto of a wetland area include:

[0082] Automatically extract shooting routes and location information from multiple remote sensing images;

[0083] Estimate the overlapping parts of each remote sensing image and generate matching points based on the shooting route and location information, automatically align multiple remote sensing images, and establish a sparse point cloud model;

[0084] A polygonal mesh model is generated based on the point cloud distribution in the sparse point cloud model. The surface of the target is constructed between the points through the polygonal mesh model to obtain the DEM model of the area and generate a complete visible light orthophoto of the wetland area.

[0085] In this embodiment, Figure 3 As shown, the specific execution process is as follows:

[0086] Import photos: Import filtered remote sensing images, automatically extract location information from the images, and display the camera position and shooting route when the image was taken.

[0087] Photo alignment: After the remote sensing image is imported, "Align photos" is performed. According to the research needs, the image stitching accuracy and pairing mode can be automatically aligned, each image can be estimated, the overlapping parts in the image can be analyzed and matching points can be generated, and a sparse point cloud model can be established. Figure 7 shown.

[0088] Mesh generation: By calculating the dense point cloud, a polygonal mesh model is generated based on the dense point cloud distribution, and the surface of the target is constructed between the points through the polygonal mesh model. The mesh is automatically generated based on the source data, surface type, and number of generated faces of the mesh. At this point, the image stitching process is basically completed, and the model can be used to generate stitched orthophotos outside the visible light.

[0089] Generation and export of regional orthophotos and DEM: Set the projection type, coordinate system, resolution, regional boundaries and other parameters for generating orthophotos. After the settings are completed, the orthophotos after visible light image stitching can be generated. The image stitching results can be exported according to the required file format. The same steps are used to obtain the regional DEM image.

[0090] In one embodiment, the step of calculating the area of ​​the wetland vegetation extraction map and the Spartina alterniflora extraction map includes:

[0091] Convert the RGB channels of the wetland vegetation extraction map and the Spartina alterniflora extraction map into PCT channels;

[0092] The pixel grid area of ​​the converted wetland vegetation extraction map and Spartina alterniflora extraction map was calculated in a single channel to obtain the wetland vegetation area and Spartina alterniflora area.

[0093] In one embodiment, the remote sensing image includes a visible light image and an infrared image;

[0094] In one embodiment, a normalized difference vegetation index (NDVI index model) is calculated for a wetland vegetation extraction image and a Spartina alterniflora extraction image extracted from an infrared image to obtain a vegetation coverage monitoring result.

[0095] It should be noted that the calculation principle of the NDVI index model is: the difference between the reflectance value of the near-infrared band and the reflectance value of the red light band is ratioed to the sum of the two, that is:

[0096] NDVI = (NIR-R) / (NIR+R);

[0097] Among them, NIR is the reflection value of the near infrared band, and R is the reflection value of the red light band.

[0098] In one embodiment, before extracting the wetland vegetation extraction map and the Spartina alterniflora extraction map, the following steps are also included:

[0099] According to the flight path of the UAV in the wetland area, the complete visible light orthophoto of the wetland area is cut into a regular polygonal image that fits the flight path;

[0100] Correct the coordinate system of the regular polygon image to make it meet the preset geographic coordinate system;

[0101] Perform atmospheric radiation correction on regular polygon images.

[0102] In this embodiment, the photos with coordinates are combined into a whole RGB image through stitching. Each image is cut into regular polygons according to the route mission to facilitate the subsequent calculation and display.

[0103] The images are spatially corrected and all output images meet the WGS1984 geographic coordinate system.

[0104] Since the images collected by drones are low-altitude images, they are greatly affected by atmospheric effects and the solar altitude angle during shooting periods with bad weather conditions, so atmospheric radiation correction is performed in sequence. During a concentrated period of time in clear weather, the effects of atmospheric effects and the solar altitude angle are less and can be ignored, so no atmospheric radiation correction is required.

[0105] The specific process of extracting coastal wetland vegetation and Spartina alterniflora from the stitched images is as follows:

[0106] A high-definition camera was used to shoot RGB images. With the help of high-resolution and high-definition images, attempts were made to extract features of individual plants to establish a database. And a support vector machine (SVM) algorithm was used for distinction and extraction. Using the high-precision distribution data of Spartina alterniflora extracted from drone images, a more accurate training set can be constructed. These training sets will be used to optimize machine learning and deep learning algorithms to improve the accuracy of extracting Spartina alterniflora from large-scale, high-resolution satellite images. Through continuous iteration and optimization, the recognition ability of the algorithm can be gradually improved, and more efficient monitoring and governance can be achieved. Figure 5 As shown, it is mainly divided into the following steps:

[0107] (1) Feature extraction

[0108] according to Figure 4 The dataset was established by labeling the samples of Spartina alterniflora and Phragmites australis in the high-definition image. 20 samples were collected for each vegetation to increase the accuracy.

[0109] (2) Feature extraction

[0110] The above data set was used to train SVM. The maximum sample size parameter of each classification was set to 150, and the coastal wetland vegetation extraction map and the coastal wetland Spartina alterniflora extraction map were extracted by continuous classification, such as Figure 8 shown.

[0111] (3) Area calculation

[0112] The RGB channel of the remote sensing image is converted into a PCT channel so that the image area can be calculated on a single channel. Then the pixel level area calculation is performed to obtain the final coastal wetland vegetation and Spartina alterniflora area, as shown in Table 1.

[0113] Table 1 Area classification and calculation table of sampling area

[0114]

[0115] This embodiment successfully spliced ​​it into 8 larger images. These images provide a solid foundation for subsequent analysis. The spliced ​​images were further cut to obtain a sample area of ​​773 hectares in total. Based on the SVM supervised learning model, the vegetation distribution and Spartina alterniflora distribution of the coastal wetland were successfully extracted from the original images. The cross validation rate reached 0.9845 and 0.9650 respectively, showing a higher recognition accuracy.
