Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention belongs to the technical field of operation and maintenance of transmission lines. Background Art

[0002] In recent years, with the continuous development of society, both industrial electricity consumption and residential electricity consumption have witnessed rapid growth, and transmission channels have been continuously constructed. However, since most of the transmission channel lines are erected in natural environments such as fields, hidden dangers will be generated in this environment, which will affect transmission lines, towers, etc. Over time, various damages will be caused to the power equipment in the channel. Therefore, the inspection of hidden dangers in transmission channels has always been an important task to ensure the continuous supply of electric energy and protect the safe operation of transmission lines.

[0003] Existing inspections of transmission channels usually rely on drones to take images. Due to the complex operation environment and being easily affected by terrain and climate conditions, if there is no good shooting angle, situations such as missed reports and false alarms will occur. Moreover, the inspection efficiency is low, especially significant when inspecting large-scale areas, and there is a lack of efficient and accurate hidden danger identification technology for large-scale transmission channels. Summary of the Invention

[0004] For this reason, the present invention proposes a large-scale inspection method for transmission channels using high-resolution satellite remote sensing data, aiming to solve the technical problems of low inspection efficiency, limited coverage, and poor accuracy of hidden danger identification in the prior art through satellite remote sensing images and automated hidden danger interpretation. The specific steps are as follows:

[0005] As Figure 1 shown, S1, satellite data shooting of transmission channels and raster data slicing;

[0006] S2, classification of hidden dangers in transmission channels, construction of hidden danger models, and automated hidden danger interpretation;

[0007] S2.2, obtaining the optimal hidden danger model through the construction and training of the hidden danger model:

[0008] The construction of the hidden danger model uses a hybrid architecture of CNN (Convolutional Neural Network) and GNN (Graph Neural Network) as the basic framework. Among them, CNN is used to extract local spatial features, and GNN constructs a network topology structure with two-way information flow, and realizes cross-layer feature interaction through dynamic connection weights between nodes; a hierarchical attention mechanism is embedded in the network topology structure of GNN, including a spatial attention unit and a channel attention unit, and the optimal hidden danger model is obtained through dataset training;

[0009] S2.3. Automatically interpret potential hazards using the optimal potential hazard model obtained in S2.2: Input the high-resolution remote sensing images of the power transmission channels obtained in S1 into the optimal potential hazard model. The output data is the raster results of various potential hazard classifications. Then, convert the raster results into vectors, remove the background part of the vector prediction results, and only retain the extraction results of the target elements. Calculate the area of each feature patch, and finally complete the optimization operation according to actual requirements.

[0010] S3. Collaboratively correct and quality inspect and accept potential hazards in the power transmission channels; Create a fishing net according to the image range, and delete incorrect potential hazard patches, supplement missing potential hazards, and correct the patch boundaries for the extracted potential hazard vectors according to the fishing net. Re-inspect the results after collaborative correction according to the fishing net until there are no incorrect patches or patches with inaccurate boundaries, and the quality inspection and acceptance are completed.

[0011] S4. Automatically generate maps and display lists of potential hazards in the power transmission channels, and generate a potential hazard analysis report.

[0012] Through spatial overlay analysis of geographical data, overlay the vector of the finally qualified potential hazard patches in S3 on the satellite images of the power transmission channels, and use data-driven analysis tools to automatically generate a potential hazard distribution map of the power transmission channels. At the same time, use the nearest neighbor analysis of geographical information technology to generate a list of potential hazards in the power transmission channels, which can accurately locate potential hazards; Generate a detailed potential hazard analysis report in combination with the potential hazard distribution map and the list of potential hazards.

[0013] Technical effects:

[0014] 1. The present invention proposes a large-scale inspection method for power transmission channels using high-resolution satellite remote sensing data. This method overcomes the limitations of existing manual inspections and drone inspections restricted by terrain and climate conditions, and can quickly and comprehensively identify and analyze potential hazards in large-scale areas.

[0015] 2. The present invention adopts a potential hazard model that combines deep learning and traditional machine learning algorithms. By automatically interpreting potential hazards, it significantly improves the accuracy of potential hazard identification, reduces false alarms and missed detections; Through the collaborative correction and quality inspection and acceptance mechanisms, the results of potential hazard identification are further optimized, ensuring the data quality and reliability during the inspection process.

[0016] 3. Using geographical information technology and data-driven analysis tools, automatically generate a potential hazard distribution map, a list of potential hazards, and a detailed potential hazard analysis report, which not only improves the inspection efficiency, provides intelligent and visual decision-making support for operation and maintenance personnel, but also provides a sustainable and intelligent solution for the power industry.

[0017] Using the existing method of drone inspection, the average inspection distance is 30 kilometers per day, but a large number of drone batteries need to be prepared. It takes 106 days to inspect all lines. At the same time, considering the complex terrain and environment around the transmission corridor, when vehicles cannot reach, it takes more time, and it is more difficult to ensure the safety of the drone operators. When using the present invention for large-scale inspection work, it takes 7 days for satellite data shooting and rapid processing of the transmission corridor, 1 day for classification and interpretation of potential hazards in the transmission corridor, and the collaborative correction and quality inspection and acceptance of potential hazards in the transmission corridor is 50 kilometers per day on average. It takes a total of 72 days to inspect all lines. Moreover, the inspection work is less affected by external conditions such as terrain. After accurately positioning the potential hazards, the operation and maintenance personnel only need to conduct a small-scale on-site verification work on the places with a higher degree of potential hazard. Therefore, the present invention is applicable to the inspection work scenarios with a large range and multiple frequencies. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

[0041] S4. Automatically Generate Maps and List Displays of Hidden Dangers in Transmission Channels, and Generate Hidden Danger Analysis Reports;

[0042] Through geospatial overlay analysis, overlay the vector of the finally qualified hidden danger patches in S3 on the satellite image of the transmission channel, and use data-driven analysis tools to automatically generate a distribution map of hidden dangers in the transmission channel, as Figure 3 shown. At the same time, use the nearest neighbor analysis of geographic information technology to generate a list of hidden dangers in the transmission channel, which can accurately locate the hidden dangers.

[0043] Furthermore, the distribution map of hidden dangers in the transmission channel includes images, hidden dangers, transmission lines, compass, scale, legend, and image time; The list of hidden dangers includes patch number, patch type, longitude, latitude, area, nearest tower number, and horizontal distance information from the tower; The content of the hidden danger analysis report includes basic information of the transmission line, basic information of the satellite image, quantity and type of hidden dangers, distribution of hidden dangers, and positional relationship between hidden dangers and transmission lines; Based on the type and location of hidden dangers in the transmission channel and combined with the scale of the transmission line, make a clear plan for the inspection priority. After this invention, the distribution map of hidden dangers in the transmission channel (.jpg), the list of hidden dangers (.excel), and the hidden danger analysis report (.pdf) are output, and the result form can be customized according to needs to meet different management requirements.

At the same time, for those of ordinary skill in the art, there will be changes in the specific implementation manners and application scopes according to the idea of the present invention.
