[0002] Hail is a solid precipitation phenomenon that occurs under strong convection conditions. It is characterized by strong locality, short duration, significant influence of terrain, and high intensity. It is often accompanied by weather processes such as strong winds and heavy rains.

Most of the hailstorm warnings in the existing technology focus on the qualitative analysis and exploration of observation data at the macro level, but rarely involve the forecast indication of the hail embryo formation stage during the hailstorm process, and cannot accurately obtain the quantitative characteristic forecast indicators for the hail embryo stage during the development of hail clouds from the micro level.

[0025] In order to make the above-mentioned objects, features and advantages of the present invention more obvious and easy to understand, the specific implementation methods of the present invention are described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0026] In the following description, many specific details are set forth to facilitate a full understanding of the present invention. However, the present invention may also be implemented in other ways different from this description. The "embodiment" referred to here refers to a specific feature, structure or characteristic that may be included in at least one implementation of the present invention.

[0027] Embodiment 1

[0028] Reference Figure 1This embodiment provides a meteorological data analysis method for hail monitoring and identification, which specifically includes the following steps: S100, collecting historical observation data of ground meteorological stations, echo information of meteorological radars, and satellite remote sensing data; S200, extracting meteorological features related to hail formation from the collected data through image processing and signal processing technology, and constructing grid distribution data for training hail monitoring algorithms; S300, analyzing the correlation between the echo information of meteorological radars and hail data in historical observation data, and constructing a hail monitoring model; S400, combining the prediction results of the hail monitoring model with the feedback data of meteorological warnings, and continuously iterating and optimizing the hail monitoring model based on feedback in actual applications.

[0029] In S200 , meteorological characteristics related to hail formation include temperature distribution, humidity, wind speed, wind direction, and radar reflectivity of the cloud layer.

[0030] In S200, the specific steps are as follows: S201, multiple grid points are set in an area, multiple observation points are set in each grid point, and a time period U is set. In the time period, whether a hail event occurs at each observation point is recorded to obtain discrete distribution data of whether a hail event occurs in the area; S202, a judgment value of whether hail occurs is set to L, and L is in the numerical range [0,1]. The larger the value of L, the larger the magnitude of hail. When L=0, no hail event occurs; S203, any observation point in the grid where a hail event occurs is taken as the center point, the judgment value L is set to 1, and the corresponding attenuation value ΔL is calculated according to the distance r between the remaining observation points in the grid and the center point. The formula is:

[0031]

[0032] Among them, the value range of ΔL is between 0-1, and the unit of r is meter; S204, calculate and record the influence relationship between all observation points in each grid point according to the above formula, obtain multiple attenuation values ​​of each grid point from different observation points, take the arithmetic mean as the judgment value of the grid point, and obtain the grid distribution data with a value interval of [0,1].

[0033] In S300, the specific steps are as follows: S301, establish a data group for each grid point, each data group includes the hail magnitude x monitored by the meteorological radar and the hail magnitude y observed in real time by the algorithm, and the difference between the two is set to d, according to the formula:

[0034]

[0035] Calculate the correlation coefficient ρ between x and y, where d i is the difference in hail magnitude in the ith data group, and n is the observation sample size.

[0036] The above formula is a simplified formula. The correlation measurement method in this algorithm is the Spearman correlation coefficient, which is a non-parametric indicator used to measure the dependence of two variables. The monotonic equation is used to evaluate the correlation of two statistical variables, that is, to check to what extent the two variables keep pace in their changing trends. If there are no repeated values ​​in the data and when the two variables are completely monotonically correlated, the Spearman correlation coefficient is +1 or -1. For a sample with a sample size of n, n original data are converted into hailstone magnitude data, and the calculation formula of the correlation coefficient ρ is:

[0037]

[0038] Among them, x i and i are the hail magnitude monitored by the meteorological radar and the hail magnitude observed in real time in the i-th data group, and Respectively represent the average magnitude.

[0039] S302. Set the threshold m. When the observation sample capacity is not less than m, compare the value of ρ with 0.05 to check the correlation between x and y. S303. Set the large radar and the small radar. Take the timestamp of the large radar as the reference point. The small radar performs data optical flow extrapolation for several minutes for time alignment. Set the distance weight according to the distance between each observation point and different radars. Calculate the average value according to the distance weight to ensure the continuity of data distribution and unify radar data of different bands into a single input matrix. S304. Apply convolutional neural network (CNN) and long short-term memory network (LSTM) to build a multi-layer neural network model. Use a large amount of historical hail event data for supervised learning. Use data enhancement technology to expand the training set to prevent overfitting. Use the attention mechanism to build a module that integrates global and local feature information. Finally, hail monitoring and identification is carried out based on the adaptively improved semantic segmentation model.

[0040] This algorithm combines correlation analysis with feature selection and uses an embedded feature selection method to perform data correlation analysis. This method combines feature selection with the model training process and achieves feature selection and model optimization at the same time by penalizing features during the model training process.

[0041] The input data grid is established by multi-band radar data fusion, and the encoder-decoder structure is based on the Efficient-ResNet efficient residual network. The attention enhancement gate and attention enhancement module are specially added for the project task to extract the features of radar data.

[0042] The main components of Efficient-ResNet include (the convolutional layer and residual connection are mainly used to extract radar data features): Convolutional Layer: used to learn image features. Residual Connection: used to connect the input and output layers to avoid gradient disappearance. Pooling Layer: used to reduce the size of the image. Fully Connected Layer: used to classify the image. Scaling Factor: used to adjust the width and depth of the network.

[0043] The input data of each physical quantity of radar data are of the same dimension. Therefore, taking one physical quantity as an example, the radar echo data within a certain period of time is input as a three-dimensional matrix. The matrix is ​​assumed to be 224*224*3 (indicating that the radar data is a 224*224 grid, and a total of 3 data are selected within the time period. This value will be adjusted based on the actual situation). After passing through a 7x7 convolution kernel and a convolution with a step size of 2, a convolution layer with a size of 112x112 and 64 channels is obtained.

[0044] In S400, the feedback data of the meteorological warning refers to the meteorological information released by the meteorological department for reminding and alerting the public and relevant departments.
