[0002] In water conservancy projects, large or important medium-sized sluice gates with flood control functions are often equipped with online gate monitoring systems.

[0003] To address the aforementioned issues, existing technologies employ the following technical solutions: when presenting data, gate online monitoring systems often use graphical representations to centrally display the layout of each monitoring point within the gate.

[0004] The shortcomings of existing technology are:

[0005] 1. Existing technologies have fixed methods and forms, serving only as illustrations and lacking intuitiveness and clarity in their expression;
