[0002] With the rapid development of UAV technology and its wide application in various industries, the potential of UAVs in fields such as topographic surveying and mapping, building monitoring, and disaster warning has been gradually explored. Traditional topographic surveying methods mostly rely on manual data collection or the use of ground equipment for measurement. These methods are not only inefficient but also have certain errors, making it difficult to cope with the challenges of complex terrains and dynamic environments. Especially in the surveying and mapping of large-scale and complex terrains, the accuracy and speed of traditional methods often fail to meet the requirements.

[0003] As an aerial platform, UAVs have the advantages of flexibility, low cost, and fast operation, and have been widely used in topographic surveying and mapping. By carrying a variety of high-precision sensors such as light detection and ranging (LiDAR), optical cameras, and infrared sensors, UAVs can quickly collect topographic data of the target area. However, with the explosion of surveying and mapping data volume and the complexity of the terrain environment, how to ensure high-precision data collection and effective fusion, eliminate interference signals, and improve data processing efficiency has become an urgent technical problem to be solved.

[0004] At present, although many UAV surveying and mapping systems can achieve data collection and preliminary processing, they generally have the following problems: First, the fusion of multi-source data is not accurate enough to eliminate the errors between sensors; second, there is a lack of effective identification and processing mechanisms for interference signals that appear in complex terrains and dynamic environments; third, existing systems mostly rely on ground-end data processing and cannot fully utilize the real-time processing capabilities of the UAV platform, resulting in delays in real-time feedback and emergency response; fourth, existing visualization technologies are relatively simple and difficult to intuitively present terrain deformation and its change trends, and cannot provide effective auxiliary support for decision-makers.

[0082] The visualization module provides multi-dimensional dynamic visualization displays, including building change heat maps, interference distribution maps, and time-series curves.

[0083] In summary, the building mapping system based on UAV remote sensing technology realizes high-precision and real-time building change monitoring by integrating multiple modules. The data acquisition module uses the UAV platform to synchronously collect topographic and environmental data, providing high-precision data for subsequent analysis; the data fusion and calibration module ensures unified alignment of data and improves data accuracy by eliminating sensor errors; the multi-dimensional feature analysis and recognition module effectively extracts and classifies sensor data, accurately distinguishing building deformation and environmental interference signals; the interference elimination and deformation extraction module accurately identifies and quantitatively analyzes periodic interference, extracting the true deformation characteristics of the building; the real-time analysis module realizes rapid data processing and feedback through lightweight algorithms, providing timely information on building changes; the visualization module enhances the intuitiveness and operability of monitoring results by dynamically displaying building change heat maps and interference distribution maps. The entire system improves the accuracy, real-time performance, and interference recognition ability of building mapping, significantly enhancing the reliability of building deformation monitoring and the visualization analysis ability.

[0084] As Figure 2 shown, the purpose of this application is also to provide a topographic mapping method for UAVs, including the following steps:

[0085] Step 1, use the UAV platform to synchronously and highly accurately collect the topographic and environmental parameters of the target area;

[0086] Step 2, fuse multi-source data and meteorological information, eliminate the errors between sensors, and ensure that all data are accurately aligned under a unified spatio-temporal reference framework;

[0087] Step 3, perform feature extraction and classification on the data of each sensor through multi-dimensional feature analysis, effectively identifying and separating environmental interference signals and true topographic deformation signals;

[0088] Step 4, perform pattern recognition and quantitative analysis on periodic non-deformation interference, and accurately extract the true deformation characteristics of the terrain from complex dynamic noise;

[0089] Step 5, deploy an optimized lightweight data processing algorithm on the UAV platform to achieve real-time data processing and feedback, ensuring the rapid provision of high-precision topographic change information in emergency monitoring and disaster warning scenarios;

[0090] Step 6, provide multi-dimensional dynamic visualization displays, including topographic change heat maps, interference distribution maps, and time-series curves.

[0091] In step 1, the UAV platform is equipped with high-precision sensor equipment, such as LiDAR, high-resolution camera, multi-spectral camera and GNSS positioning system, and takes advantage of the stable platform during flight to collect comprehensive and accurate data of the target area. During the flight, the UAV can obtain real-time information on various environmental parameters such as terrain, vegetation coverage, water distribution, etc. in the area through preset route planning, ensuring the time synchronization and spatial continuity of data collection. The advantage of this technology lies in its flexibility and efficiency. It can be quickly deployed in complex or difficult-to-reach areas. The collected data not only has a high spatial resolution, but also can form a multi-dimensional and multi-angle terrain information data set due to the collaborative work of multiple sensors. This high-precision data collection method can not only reduce the subjective errors caused by traditional manual surveys, but also greatly improve the real-time and accuracy of the data. The UAV collection technology also uses advanced positioning and attitude control to keep the sensor in a stable state during flight, ensuring that the data will not be distorted due to jitter or external interference during the acquisition process. By preprocessing the raw data collected by the sensor and removing noise and outliers, the signal-to-noise ratio and effectiveness of the data can be further improved. This step has significant technical effects, especially in the fields of emergency rescue, natural disaster monitoring, environmental protection, etc. It has great application prospects. It can provide decision makers with accurate terrain and environmental information in a short time, helping to respond quickly and make scientific decisions. More importantly, through the simultaneous collection of terrain data and environmental parameters, a three-dimensional, multi-dimensional regional environmental panorama can be constructed, thereby providing a solid data foundation and reliable spatiotemporal reference for subsequent data fusion, feature extraction and change monitoring.

[0092] Step 2 forms a unified and standardized data set by performing multi-source data fusion on data from different sensors, different platforms, and even different acquisition time periods. First, advanced algorithms are used to preprocess the acquired data. Through techniques such as data filtering, calibration, and registration, errors caused by differences in acquisition angles, time intervals, and hardware accuracies among different sensors are eliminated. The topographic, environmental, and meteorological data collected by the sensors are aligned in time and space to achieve seamless connection between different data. By using a unified spatio-temporal reference framework, not only can the precise matching of each data source in the time and space dimensions be ensured, but also the dynamic changes within the region can be monitored and compared in real time. This technology makes full use of the complementary information among multi-source data. Through algorithm optimization, systematic errors in positioning, calibration, etc. of each sensor can be eliminated, improving the reliability and accuracy of the overall data. Especially in complex environments and adverse meteorological conditions, by fusing meteorological information, factors such as wind speed, temperature, and humidity are corrected in real time, effectively compensating for the impact of environmental changes on the measurement accuracy of the sensors. At the same time, the data fusion technology also has high fault tolerance and robustness, so that even if some data is missing or abnormal, it will not have an obvious impact on the accuracy of the overall data. Through multi-level and multi-scale data matching and alignment, the finally formed unified data set provides a solid foundation for subsequent feature extraction, pattern recognition, and deformation analysis, enabling quantitative comparison and joint analysis of data from different sources in the same reference system, thus achieving precise monitoring of terrain changes and environmental dynamics in the target area and meeting the actual application requirements of high-demand scenarios such as disaster early warning and geological disaster assessment.

[0093] In step 3, an advanced multi-dimensional feature analysis technique is adopted to deeply mine and extract multi-dimensional features such as space, frequency, and time in the data collected by the unmanned aerial vehicle, so as to achieve a detailed classification and discrimination of various signals existing in the data. First of all, mathematical tools such as statistical analysis, Fourier transform, and wavelet transform are used to decompose and reconstruct the main signals, noises, and potential patterns in the data. By setting a variety of feature indicators, such as texture, gradient, shape, and dynamic change characteristics, it is possible to identify the abnormal fluctuations caused by environmental interference, and at the same time separate the information reflecting the real terrain deformation. Further, machine learning algorithms, such as support vector machine (SVM), random forest, and deep neural network, are used to classify and label the extracted features. This process not only improves the ability to identify signals in complex backgrounds, but also maintains a high recognition accuracy in the case of high data dimensions and large noise interference. The advantage of using multi-dimensional feature analysis is that it can consider both local details and overall trends in the data, so as to achieve an accurate distinction between terrain change signals and environmental noises. Especially in scenarios of regional terrain mutation or local anomaly monitoring, this technology can timely capture minute deformation characteristics, providing key information for subsequent disaster early warning and geological disaster assessment. In addition, the continuous iteration and optimization of feature extraction and classification algorithms have better adaptability and robustness when facing data under different environments and acquisition conditions, ensuring that high-efficiency and stable monitoring performance can still be maintained in complex and changeable application scenarios. Through the application of multi-dimensional feature analysis technology, the entire data processing process has been systematized and standardized, and then the accurate separation of real information and interference signals in sensor data has been achieved.

[0094] In step 4, an in-depth analysis is carried out on the periodic non-deformation interference signal. By establishing a mathematical model and pattern recognition algorithm for the interference signal, the periodic noise in the environment is distinguished from the real terrain deformation signal. Periodic non-deformation interference is often caused by equipment vibration, external mechanical movement, or meteorological periodic fluctuations. These signals exhibit obvious periodic characteristics in the frequency domain. Through methods such as Fourier transform, wavelet analysis, and autoregressive model, the periodic components existing in the data can be quantitatively decomposed and spectrum analyzed. First, all signal components with obvious periodic characteristics in the data are identified, and techniques such as template matching and spectrum analysis are used to compare and correct these components, thus effectively removing the periodic interference unrelated to the real terrain deformation. The quantitative analysis technique further models and compensates the interference signal by extracting the noise intensity, frequency change, and phase information, making the subsequent deformation feature extraction more accurate. At the same time, by combining the time series information of multi-source data, the change law of the interference signal in different time periods can be dynamically monitored, and a complete interference signal database can be constructed, so as to predict and compensate the possible periodic errors in future data acquisition in advance. This technique not only theoretically solves the interference problem of periodic noise on terrain deformation analysis, but also in practical applications, through data filtering and reconstruction, effectively extracts the real signal from complex dynamic noise. In this way, not only the accuracy of the data processing result is ensured, but also the robustness and stability in a high-noise environment are greatly improved. Through the pattern recognition and quantitative analysis of the periodic non-deformation interference signal, an accurate and interference-free terrain change model can finally be provided, providing a scientific basis for disaster warning, environmental monitoring, and engineering construction, and ensuring that every key decision is based on real and reliable data.

[0095] Step 5 focuses on integrating advanced data processing algorithms onto the UAV platform, ensuring real-time processing and analysis while collecting data, thereby providing immediate response information for emergency monitoring and disaster warning. The optimization goal of lightweight data processing algorithms is to balance the computational complexity of the algorithms and the real-time requirements. Through algorithm compression, model pruning, and edge computing technologies, high-speed data operations can be achieved even with limited computing resources on the UAV platform. Real-time data processing requires the algorithms to not only have efficient data preprocessing, feature extraction, and model inference capabilities, but also the algorithm response time must be controlled within the millisecond level to promptly feedback the monitoring results. For this purpose, multi-threaded parallel computing and adaptive sampling technologies are introduced in the algorithm design, enabling the data stream to maintain the minimum delay in all aspects of transmission, processing, and feedback. At the same time, considering the complex environment and huge data volume in emergency scenarios, incremental learning and online update mechanisms are also adopted, which can continuously optimize and adjust the model parameters during the data collection process, improving the overall adaptability to dynamic changing scenarios. By deploying the data processing algorithms on the UAV platform, not only the time and bandwidth pressure for data transmission to the backend central processing are reduced, but also the real-time performance of on-site decision-making is greatly improved, providing reliable support for emergency rescue and disaster warning. Under the tight coupling of hardware and software, this solution realizes the seamless connection of data collection, processing, and feedback, enabling each flight mission to generate high-precision terrain change reports and transmit them to the command center in real time through wireless communication technology, so that decision-makers can obtain accurate and detailed information in a timely manner, formulate response measures in a timely manner, and ensure the safety of people's lives and property.

[0096] Step 6 transforms the multi-dimensional data that has undergone real-time processing and analysis into an intuitive graphical interface through advanced visualization techniques, providing users with a comprehensive and multi-angle monitoring result display platform. First, by generating a terrain change heat map, the deformation information within the region is presented in the form of color gradients, enabling users to intuitively observe which areas have undergone significant changes and which parts are in a stable state. At the same time, the interference distribution map helps users distinguish the true terrain deformation signals from environmental noise in the data by marking the spatial positions and intensities of interference signals, thus providing a reference for subsequent analysis and decision-making. The time-series curve shows the dynamic change process of the data within the monitoring region over time. Through the real-time updated data curve, it can reflect the trend and periodic characteristics of terrain changes. This multi-dimensional dynamic visualization display is based on advanced data rendering techniques and interactive graphical interface designs, enabling complex data to be presented in a simple and intuitive manner. Users can quickly obtain key information through various forms such as graphs, charts, and maps. At the same time, it also supports interactive operations, allowing users to zoom in, zoom out, switch perspectives and time periods, and deeply analyze the data changes in specific regions or at specific time points, enhancing the flexibility and depth of data analysis. The entire visualization module not only achieves the efficient integration and display of data technically, but also conducts fine design in terms of user experience, ensuring that users at different levels and with different backgrounds can quickly understand the information conveyed by the data. Whether it is scientific researchers, emergency decision-makers, or the general public, they can obtain an intuitive perception of terrain changes and environmental dynamics through this platform, providing a highly valuable reference basis for scientific research, urban planning, and disaster emergency response. In addition, the dynamic display of multi-dimensional data also promotes the transformation of the data analysis process from traditional static reports to an interactive and real-time response monitoring mode, greatly enhancing the application effect of monitoring and the decision-making support ability.

[0097] In summary, the UAV-based mapping data acquisition and analysis method achieves high-precision monitoring of the entire process from data acquisition to result display through multiple steps and multiple technical means. Each step fully demonstrates the advantages of advanced sensing technologies, data fusion, pattern recognition, and real-time processing, ensuring both the accuracy of data and the improvement of processing efficiency and application flexibility. From synchronous acquisition to multi-source data fusion, then to multi-dimensional feature extraction and interference elimination, and finally to real-time feedback and dynamic visualization display, each link is closely connected, jointly constructing a complete and efficient monitoring system. This method not only has extremely high application value in disaster warning and emergency rescue, but also provides new technical ideas and implementation paths for geographic information systems and environmental monitoring, and will surely play a greater role in future urban planning, ecological protection, and resource management and other fields.

Training is carried out using pre-labeled terrain feature samples to achieve the classification and segmentation of land cover. At the same time, through the comparison of multi-temporal data, fixed ground objects and temporary environmental elements are distinguished. In addition, through blind source separation technology, the composite terrain change signal is decomposed into independent components from different sources to identify seasonal changes, human interference, instrument noise, and real geological movements, enhancing the accuracy of data processing. On this basis, semantic annotation and potential risk assessment are performed on the terrain change signal. By combining spatio-temporal correlation analysis to explore the causal relationship between terrain changes and environmental parameters, conditional probability inference is used to further distinguish temporary changes from persistent geological movements. Finally, by integrating the classification results of multiple features, the reliability of deformation analysis is optimized, and a high-confidence terrain deformation and environmental interference separation result map is generated, ensuring high precision and high credibility in terrain change analysis.

[0148] In summary, by converting the time-series terrain data into the frequency domain space, the characteristic frequencies and amplitude information are accurately extracted, thereby effectively identifying and quantifying the periodic interference signals and improving the accuracy of data analysis. Based on the identified periodic interference, a state-space equation set is constructed, and the recursive optimal estimation algorithm is used to suppress the random noise and systematic errors while ensuring the integrity of the true terrain change signals. In addition, the method adopts the modal decomposition technology to decompose the complex terrain change signals into a finite number of intrinsic mode functions and singular components. Through the modal energy analysis and statistical significance test, the terrain change patterns with physical meanings are extracted, and the random noise is effectively filtered out. In terms of spatial analysis, by combining differential interferometric measurement and point cloud comparison analysis, the terrain elevation changes at different scales are accurately quantified, and with the help of geological prior knowledge, the local minor deformations and large-scale geological movements are distinguished. Further, using Bayesian inference and Markov random field theory, through the constraints of time continuity and spatial correlation, the abnormal change areas are accurately identified, enhancing the stability of terrain change detection. Finally, by integrating the blind source separation, sparse representation, and low-rank matrix decomposition technologies, while retaining the integrity of the terrain deformation amplitude and morphology, various types of interference are maximally suppressed, and a terrain deformation feature map with a high signal-to-noise ratio is generated, thus ensuring the high precision, high stability, and high reliability of terrain change analysis.

[0150] Furthermore, by using differential interferometric measurement and point cloud comparison analysis, the terrain elevation changes at different spatial scales are quantified, and combined with the spatial context information and geological prior knowledge, the local minor deformations and large-scale geological movements are distinguished, including the following steps:

[0151] By calculating the phase difference Δφ of the radar echo, according to the formula the elevation change of the ground surface is quantified, where Δh DInSAR is the elevation change amount calculated by differential interferometric measurement; λ is the wavelength of the radar signal; θ is the angle between the radar beam and the ground;

[0153] By weighted fusion of DInSAR and point cloud data, the formula is expressed as: Δh fusion (x, y) = w1·Δh DInSAR (x, y) + w2·Δh PC (x, y), where Δh fusion (x, y) is the elevation change at the coordinate (x, y) after fusing DInSAR and point cloud data; w1 and w2 are the weighted coefficients of DInSAR and point cloud data respectively; Δh DInSAR (x, y), Δh PC (x, y) are the elevation changes calculated by DInSAR and point cloud data respectively at the coordinate (x, y);

[0154] The large-scale deformation is obtained through Δh large (x, y) = G σ *Δh fusion (x, y), while the local deformation is Δh local (x, y) = Δh fusion (x, y) - Δh large (x, y), effectively distinguishing the deformation characteristics of different scales, where Δh large (x, y) represents the large-scale topographic change at the spatial position (x, y); Δh local (x, y) represents the small-scale topographic change at the spatial position (x, y);

[0155] According to the geological prior knowledge, set the threshold T large of the large-scale deformation and the threshold T local of the local small deformation. If Δh large (x, y) exceeds T large , it is determined as a large-scale geological movement; if Δh local (x, y) exceeds T local , it is a local small deformation.
