Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of water resource management, and in particular to an intelligent irrigation area water resource management system based on GIS, cloud computing and Internet of Things technologies. Background Art

[0002] Water resources are an important resource that is indispensable to human survival and development. As irrigation areas are concentrated areas of agricultural water use, the rational management of water resources is of vital importance to ensuring agricultural production, saving water resources and achieving sustainable development.

[0003] Traditional irrigation water resource management methods face many limitations. In the early days of irrigation management, it mainly relied on manual experience and simple measurement tools. For example, irrigation decisions in irrigation areas are often based on farmers' traditional experience, with fixed time intervals and roughly estimated water volumes. This approach does not take into account the actual soil moisture content in the irrigation area, the different water requirements of crops at different growth stages, and the dynamic changes in meteorological factors.

[0004] From the perspective of data collection, the frequency of manual collection of water level, flow and other data in the past was extremely low, and measurements might be taken only once every few days or even weeks. As a result, it is difficult to obtain real-time information on water resource changes, resulting in a lack of accurate data support when allocating water resources. For example, in the event of sudden rainfall or drought, the irrigation district management department cannot quickly make reasonable water resource allocation decisions due to the inability to obtain relevant data in a timely manner, which may result in a waste of water resources or a shortage of water for crops.

[0005] Furthermore, the traditional management model lacks effective spatial analysis capabilities. Irrigation areas usually cover a large geographical area, and geographical factors such as soil texture, terrain slope, and vegetation coverage in different regions have a significant impact on the infiltration, runoff, and evaporation of water resources. However, the traditional management method cannot comprehensively and meticulously analyze the relationship between these spatial factors and water resources, making it difficult to achieve precise water resource management based on the characteristics of different regions.

[0006] With the development of information technology, GIS technology has made it possible to solve the spatial analysis problems in irrigation area water resources management. GIS can integrate various geospatial data of irrigation areas, such as terrain elevation data, soil type distribution, water system network, etc., and intuitively display the distribution, flow and utilization of water resources in different geographical areas through spatial analysis functions. The emergence of cloud computing technology provides powerful computing resources and storage capabilities for the storage, processing and analysis of massive water resources data. It can quickly process large amounts of data from different data sources and provide flexible computing services according to demand. Internet of Things technology realizes real-time and continuous monitoring and data collection of water resource-related parameters by deploying various sensors in irrigation areas, such as water level sensors, flow sensors, soil moisture sensors, etc.

[0007] Although GIS, cloud computing and Internet of Things technologies have their own applications in the field of water resources management, the research and practice of organically integrating these three technologies to build a comprehensive and efficient intelligent irrigation area water resources management system is relatively insufficient. This invention aims to fill this gap by integrating GIS, cloud computing and Internet of Things technologies to build an intelligent irrigation area water resources management system to improve the efficiency, accuracy and sustainability of irrigation area water resources management. Summary of the invention

[0021] Step 1: Determine the number of check bits m according to the number of information bits n, satisfying 2 m -m - 1 ≥ n;

[0022] Step 2: According to the coding rule of the Hamming code, combine the information bits and the check bits into the codeword C = c k-1 c k-2 …c1c0, k = n + m;

[0023] Step 3: At the receiving end, the check bit is recalculated based on the received coded word and compared with the received check bit. If they are inconsistent, it means that an error occurred during data transmission.

[0024] Preferably, the terrain data of the irrigation area is analyzed based on a slope calculation algorithm based on a regular grid, and the specific expression is as follows:

[0025]

[0026] Where s(i,j) represents the slope of a grid point (i,j), z(i,j) represents the elevation of the grid point in the i-th row and j-th column, and Δx and Δy are the horizontal and vertical grid spacings.
