Technical Field
[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of underground structure monitoring, and in particular relates to a distributed underground structure safety monitoring system. Background Art
[0002] With the rapid advancement of global urbanization, the development and utilization of underground space has become an important way to ease the shortage of urban land resources and improve the urban environment. However, underground structures face many safety hazards due to their concealment, complexity and long-term nature. Underground structures such as subway tunnels, water conservancy dams, mine tunnels, underground pipe galleries, etc. are prone to structural damage, deformation, water seepage, geological disasters, etc. under complex geological conditions and changing environments. These problems not only affect the normal use of underground structures, but may also pose a serious threat to people's lives and property safety.
[0003] Traditional underground structure safety monitoring methods mainly rely on manual inspections and single-point monitoring technology. Although manual inspections are intuitive, they have problems such as low efficiency, high cost, and difficulty in comprehensive coverage; single-point monitoring technology can often only monitor the status of local areas and is difficult to reflect the overall status of the entire underground structure. In addition, traditional monitoring methods also have many shortcomings in data collection, transmission, and processing, such as discontinuous data collection, poor real-time performance, and limited data processing capabilities, which make it difficult to meet the high requirements of modern underground structure safety monitoring. Summary of the invention

It can automatically extract key features in the image and compare them with preset safety standards to discover potential safety problems. When abnormal conditions are found, the image processing and analysis module can quickly generate alarm information and push it to the monitoring personnel in real time through the AR / VR integrated platform. This helps monitoring personnel to respond in time and take measures to prevent the situation from further deteriorating. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS
