Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the field of unmanned aerial vehicle sampling, and in particular to an air-ground combined device for unmanned aerial vehicle sampling and multi-parameter detection sites for ocean water quality. Background Art

[0002] Traditional offshore marine water quality testing includes fixed testing at sea (such as offshore buoys, offshore platforms, integrated monitoring sensors in the sea, which can detect nutrients, Ph, dissolved oxygen, etc.), aerial surveys (water samples can be collected in a variety of ways), aerial testing (drone hyperspectral image collection, remote sensing collection can detect chlorophyll a concentration, transparency, etc. of marine water bodies), shore station testing (through automatic water sampling to land, and then multi-parameter testing), manual water sampling testing, etc.

[0003] Existing detection methods have obvious limitations: methods that can detect multiple parameters are often difficult to perform fixed-point sampling at specific locations; and methods that can achieve fixed-point sampling at specific locations either cannot achieve multi-parameter detection or are very expensive. Therefore, it is urgent to develop a new device to effectively solve the above problems. Summary of the invention

[0004] The purpose of the present invention is to provide an air-ground combined device for ocean water quality drone sampling and multi-parameter detection sites to solve the problems raised in the above-mentioned background technology.

After the ocean water sample is collected, the drone is raised and the multispectral imaging camera is started.

Under the action of gravity, the sampling chamber moves downward until the sampling chamber penetrates into the ocean sampling point position, and then the second solenoid valve is opened, so that seawater is poured into the sampling chamber through the second solenoid valve, and then the multi-spectral imaging camera is started. The multi-spectral imaging camera can calculate the content of chlorophyll a by analyzing the reflectivity of a specific band in the hyperspectral image of the image data collected from the ocean surface, and obtain information such as seawater transparency and turbidity based on the relationship model between the hyperspectral data and the transparency of seawater, and transmit the information to the control terminal.
