Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of meteorological weather map filling and analysis, and in particular to a vectorized storage device and method for manual weather map analysis. Background Art

[0002] In weather forecasting, although computer-automated weather map filling and analysis has become the mainstream trend, manual weather map analysis is still an indispensable basic skill for forecasters. For the drawings produced after traditional manual weather map analysis, the preservation methods mainly include static paper preservation and image file preservation through large scanners. However, both methods have significant defects. The physical preservation of paper weather maps requires special warehouse conditions and the implementation of insect and mildew prevention and other maintenance measures, but its preservation period is limited. Relatively speaking, although the drawings preserved by scanners have a longer preservation time, in order to ensure the preservation of high-precision image files, expensive large flatbed scanners and large-scale storage devices are required. This process is not only costly, but also brings many inconveniences in actual operation. In addition, the scanned weather map base map and the analysis content are superimposed on each other, and its use is mainly limited to the browsing of subsequent data, and its practical value is limited.

[0003] To solve the above problems, the weather map analysis smart pen came into being. This smart writing device not only has the functions of a traditional writing pen, but also realizes the electronic collection of writing tracks and real-time synchronization to the computer screen through the internal integrated electronic equipment, realizing the seamless connection between writing on paper and display on the computer screen.

[0004] When using the weather map analysis smart pen to perform weather map analysis, forecasters can write directly on the printed live data weather map, and their handwriting will be recorded in real time and converted into electronic vector tracks, thereby realizing the electronic storage of the drawing process. This process not only retains the forecaster's traditional working habits on paper weather maps, but also ensures the non-differential intelligent collection, storage and interaction of data analysis. At the same time, the electronic drawing track can be displayed in real time on the computer screen, which greatly facilitates the recording, storage, modification, query and evaluation of weather map analysis results. Summary of the invention

[0005] In view of the deficiencies in the prior art, the present invention discloses a vectorized storage device and method for manual weather map analysis, which are used to solve the above problems.

[0017] Furthermore, the device also includes a data backup and recovery system to ensure the security and reliability of weather map data. The system can regularly back up vectorized weather map data and quickly restore it when needed to prevent data loss due to equipment failure or unexpected circumstances.

[0018] In a second aspect, the present invention provides a method for vectorized storage of manual weather map analysis, the method using the vectorized storage device for manual weather map analysis according to the first aspect, comprising the following steps:

[0025] g) The user selects a specific time period and replays the weather changes during that time period;

[0026] h) The data backup and recovery system regularly backs up vectorized weather map data and quickly restores it when needed to ensure data security and reliability.

[0027] The beneficial effects of the present invention are:

Obviously, the drawings described below are only some embodiments of the present invention. For ordinary technicians in this field, other drawings can be obtained based on these drawings without paying creative work.

[0035] Figure 2 This is a diagram showing the principle and steps of the vectorized saving method for manual weather map analysis. DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0036] In order to make the purpose, technical solution and advantages of the embodiments of the present invention clearer, the technical solution in the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are 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.

[0037] In one embodiment, referring to Figure 1 As shown, a vector storage device for manual weather map analysis is provided, including

[0038] The trace input includes a drawing end and a recognition end, wherein the drawing end and the recognition end cooperate with each other to output a drawing trace simulation signal;

[0039] Central storage and processing, communicatively connected to the trace input, storing weather map vector data, for locating the position in the weather map according to the received drawing trace analog signal, and outputting a display control signal in conjunction with the drawing trace;

[0040] Intelligent display, which is connected to the central storage and processing by communication, restores the relative track and longitude and latitude information drawn by the drawing end on the recognition end according to the display control signal, and displays it on the electronic map.

[0041] In one embodiment, the central storage and processing system is equipped with an advanced automatic weather data update system that has the ability to communicate in real time with external meteorological data sources. Through seamless connection with external data sources such as meteorological satellites or meteorological radars, the automatic weather data update system can obtain the latest weather data information in real time. These data include not only conventional meteorological parameters such as temperature, humidity, wind speed, but also more detailed information such as precipitation, cloud distribution, lightning activity, etc. The latest weather data obtained will be automatically transmitted to the central storage system and deeply integrated with the existing vectorized weather map data.

[0042] The core part of the central storage and processing system of this embodiment is the weather map analysis algorithm module. This module uses advanced computing technology to perform in-depth analysis of vector data on weather maps. Users can provide additional information and guidance to the algorithm module by entering annotations and marks. The weather map analysis algorithm module automatically identifies specific weather patterns and trends, such as high-pressure systems, low-pressure troughs, frontal activities, etc. In addition, the module can also provide accurate forecast analysis results based on historical data and real-time data, helping meteorologists and related staff to predict weather trends in advance.

[0043] In this embodiment, through this automated weather data update and analysis system, weather map analysis no longer relies solely on manual drawing and traditional methods, but combines advanced computing technology. This not only greatly improves the accuracy and efficiency of weather analysis, but also provides more scientific and reliable data support for meteorological forecasting and decision-making. Whether it is short-term weather forecasts or long-term climate change research, the central storage and processing system can provide strong technical support to ensure that relevant personnel can obtain the most accurate weather information in a timely manner.

[0044] In one embodiment, the intelligent display system not only provides a rich user interaction interface, but also allows users to perform flexible operations when viewing weather maps. Specifically, users can zoom in or out of the weather map through the zoom function to observe the weather conditions of a specific area in more detail. In addition, the rotation function allows users to adjust the direction of the weather map to adapt to different observation angles and needs. Users can also adjust the position of the weather map on the screen through movement operations, so as to make comparison and analysis more convenient.

[0045] To further enhance the user experience, the intelligent display system also provides annotation and marking functions. Users can enter text annotations on the weather map to record key findings or decision-making basis during the analysis process. These annotations can include interpretations of meteorological data, explanations of forecast results, and any important observation points. In addition, users can also use the marking function to add graphic marks such as arrows, circles or lines to the weather map to highlight specific meteorological features or trends. These marks and annotations not only help users keep their thoughts clear during the analysis process, but also play an important communication role in team collaboration, ensuring that each member can quickly understand key information.

[0046] In one embodiment, the design of the recognition end includes two main parts: a weather map base map and a location code dot matrix. The weather map base map is used as a basic layer and provides the background information required for drawing a weather map. The location code dot matrix is ​​overlaid on the weather map base map, and its main function is to accurately locate the specific location of the drawing trace. Each location code dot matrix is ​​composed of multiple small areas, which correspond to specific longitude and latitude coordinates. In this way, the location of each drawing trace can be accurately converted into vector data, thereby ensuring the accuracy and traceability of the drawing.

[0047] In addition, the recognition end is equipped with a pressure sensing layer. This pressure sensing layer can detect the pressure applied by the drawing end and transmit this pressure information as part of the drawing trace analog signal to the central storage and processing system. In this way, in addition to the location information, the thickness and depth of the drawing can also be recorded in detail. This recording method can not only capture the details of the drawing, but also provide richer and more detailed data support for weather map analysis. With this data, analysts can more accurately interpret the various information in the weather map, thereby improving the accuracy and reliability of weather forecasts.

[0048] In one embodiment, the intelligent display also includes a weather map historical data playback function, allowing the user to select a specific time period and playback the weather changes during that time period. In this way, the user can intuitively observe the evolution of weather patterns, providing strong support for long-term weather forecasting and decision-making. The device also includes a data backup and recovery system to ensure the security and reliability of weather map data. The system can regularly back up vectorized weather map data and quickly restore it when needed to prevent data loss due to equipment failure or unexpected situations.

[0049] On the terminal, the trajectory of the weather map analysis smart pen will be restored to the relative trajectory and longitude and latitude information on the electronic weather map. Then, the terminal will smooth and fit these saved trajectory results to realize the electronic trajectory storage of the weather map analysis.

[0050] It is worth noting that the longitude accuracy of the vectorized location information collected by the weather map analysis smart pen is as high as 0.1mm, and this information will be stored in the database for subsequent use.

[0051] In addition, the weather map filling terminal also has a powerful information fusion display function. It can fuse the vectorized location information of the weather map analysis smart pen with the digital base map information of the weather map, and support the superposition and comparison of this information with satellite cloud images, radar puzzles and numerical forecast products, so as to provide users with more comprehensive and intuitive weather map analysis results.

[0052] In one embodiment, a method for vectorizing and saving manual weather map analysis is provided, comprising the following steps:

[0053] a) starting the vectorization storage device for manual weather map analysis, and drawing the weather map on the recognition end through the drawing end;

[0054] b) The recognition end captures the analog signal of the drawing trace and transmits it to the central storage and processing;

[0055] c) central storage and processing based on the received drawing trace analog signal, locate the position in the weather map, and output the display control signal in combination with the drawing trace;

[0056] d) The intelligent display restores the relative track and longitude and latitude information drawn by the drawing end on the recognition end according to the display control signal, and displays it on the electronic map;

[0057] e) Users can zoom, rotate and move the displayed weather map through the user interaction interface, and enter comments and marks to record key findings or decision-making basis;

[0058] f) Central storage and processing automatically identifies specific weather patterns and trends and provides forecast analysis results;

[0059] g) The user selects a specific time period and replays the weather changes during that time period;

[0060] h) The data backup and recovery system regularly backs up vectorized weather map data and quickly restores it when needed to ensure data security and reliability.

[0061] In one embodiment, the present invention provides a vectorized storage device for manual weather map analysis, wherein the device is loaded with a vectorized storage device for manual weather map analysis, and the device is used for manual weather map analysis.

[0062] In summary, the present invention improves the efficiency and accuracy of weather map analysis. By using the smart pen, forecasters can quickly convert hand-drawn weather maps into electronic vector data, reducing the cumbersome steps of traditional manual analysis while ensuring the accuracy of the analysis results.

[0063] The present invention promotes the digitization and intelligence of weather map analysis. The present invention not only retains the forecaster's writing habits, but also realizes the digital processing of weather map analysis through the combination of smart pen and computer system, which provides convenience for subsequent data analysis and prediction.

[0064] The present invention enhances the interactivity and operability of weather map analysis. The intelligent display function allows users to operate and annotate weather maps in real time, making the analysis process more intuitive and interactive, and helping forecasters to quickly capture and record key information.

[0065] The present invention improves the storage and management capabilities of weather map data. Through the automatic weather data update system and the data backup and recovery system, the present invention ensures the real-time update and long-term preservation of weather map data, avoids the risk of data loss, and improves the security and reliability of data management.

[0066] The present invention provides a historical data playback function for weather map analysis. Users can use this function to review historical weather changes, which not only helps to analyze the evolution of weather patterns, but also provides strong support for long-term weather forecasting and decision-making.

[0067] In summary, the present invention effectively solves the limitations of traditional manual analysis by providing a vectorized storage device, system and method for manual weather map analysis, realizes the digitization, intelligence and interactivity of weather map analysis, greatly improves the efficiency and accuracy of weather map analysis, and provides strong technical support for weather forecasting and decision-making.
