Currently, monitoring and early warning methods for landslides in this region have certain limitations.
[0003] Existing monitoring methods often rely on a single data collection method, such as relying solely on ground sensors or satellite remote sensing, which makes it difficult to obtain comprehensive and accurate landslide-related information. Data processing and analysis methods are also relatively traditional and cannot effectively handle multi-source and complex data, resulting in inaccurate landslide risk assessments. Furthermore, existing early warning methods often fail to issue warning information in a timely and accurate manner and lack a dynamic update mechanism, making them difficult to adapt to the complex and changing geological and climatic conditions of the permafrost regions of the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau. Therefore, it is necessary to develop a landslide hazard monitoring and early warning method for the permafrost regions of the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau to meet practical needs. Summary of the Invention

[0026] The present invention Figures 1 to 2 As shown, a method for monitoring and early warning of landslide disasters in permafrost areas of the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau includes the following steps:
[0027] S1. Multi-source data acquisition: Satellite remote sensing technology is used to obtain regional topography and vegetation cover data, and a ground sensor network is used to collect permafrost temperature, humidity, displacement, groundwater level and meteorological data;
[0028] S2. Data preprocessing: cleaning, filtering, and normalizing the collected data;

[0030] S4. Risk assessment: Build a landslide risk assessment model based on machine learning algorithms and evaluate the landslide risk level based on characteristic parameters;
[0031] S5. Warning release: When the risk level reaches the set threshold, warning information will be released through multiple channels;
[0032] S6. Dynamic update: Continuously collect data and regularly update risk assessment models.
[0033] In the feature extraction step S3, the thickness change rate of the frozen soil active layer V is calculated. ALT The formula is V ALT =(ALT t -ALT t-1 ) / Δ t, Among them ALT t ALT is the thickness of the active frozen soil layer at the current moment. t-1 is the thickness of the frozen soil active layer at the previous moment, Δ t is the time interval.
[0034] In the multi-source data collection in step S1, satellite remote sensing technology adopts a combination of synthetic aperture radar and optical remote sensing, and the ground sensor network includes displacement sensors, strain sensors, temperature and humidity sensors, and groundwater level sensors.
[0035] In the data preprocessing step S2, median filtering is used to remove noise in the data, and the minimum-maximum normalization method is used to normalize the data to the interval [0, 1].
[0036] The feature extraction step S3 further extracts the displacement rate, groundwater level change rate and temperature change rate as feature parameters.
[0037] In the risk assessment of step S4, the machine learning algorithm adopts the random forest algorithm, with historical landslide data as training samples, characteristic parameters as input, and landslide risk level as output for model training.
[0038] In step S5, the warning information includes the landslide risk level, possible time and location of occurrence, and response measures. The release channels include text messages, broadcasts, online platforms, and on-site alarm devices.
[0039] In the dynamic update of step S6, new data is collected at regular intervals and the risk assessment model is updated using an incremental learning method.
[0040] In the multi-source data collection step S1, a data quality monitoring unit is also set up to monitor the accuracy and stability of sensor data in real time, and to perform maintenance or replace sensors in a timely manner when data is abnormal.
[0041] In the risk assessment of step S4, landslide risks are classified into different levels according to human activities in the area, and corresponding risk thresholds are set for each level.
[0042] Multi-source data fusion: The comprehensive use of satellite remote sensing technology and ground sensor networks has enabled the collection of multi-source data, enabling comprehensive and accurate acquisition of geological, meteorological and other information in the permafrost areas of the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau, providing a rich data foundation for landslide risk assessment.
[0043] Data processing and analysis technology: Median filtering and minimum-maximum normalization methods are used for data preprocessing, combined with the random forest algorithm for risk assessment. This can effectively process multi-source and complex data and improve the accuracy of landslide risk assessment.
[0044] Dynamic update mechanism: By regularly collecting new data and using incremental learning methods to update the risk assessment model, it can promptly adapt to changes in geological and climatic conditions in the permafrost areas of the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau, ensuring the timeliness and reliability of early warnings.
[0045] Comprehensive early warning information release: Early warning information includes landslide risk level, possible time and location of occurrence, response measures and recommendations, and is released through multiple channels, enabling relevant personnel to understand the landslide disaster situation in a timely manner and take effective response measures to reduce disaster losses.
[0046] Data quality monitoring: A data quality monitoring unit is set up to monitor sensor data in real time, ensuring the accuracy and stability of collected data and further improving the reliability of the entire monitoring and early warning system.
[0047] Synthetic aperture radar (SAR) offers all-day, all-weather observation capabilities, capable of penetrating clouds and some vegetation to obtain highly accurate topographic and geomorphological information. It is unrestricted by weather conditions and can provide continuous monitoring at night and in inclement weather. Optical remote sensing provides rich spectral information, helping to accurately identify vegetation cover type and status. The combination of these two technologies can comprehensively and accurately obtain regional topography and vegetation cover data, providing fundamental geographic information and vegetation status information for subsequent landslide hazard analysis, as vegetation cover is closely related to landslide stability, and topography is a key factor influencing landslide occurrence.
[0048] Displacement sensors monitor soil displacement in real time, enabling the detection of even the smallest signs of displacement before a landslide occurs. Strain sensors measure stress and strain within the soil, reflecting the load on the soil. Temperature and humidity sensors capture the temperature and humidity of frozen soil, as its physical properties vary significantly with temperature and humidity, making them key factors influencing landslides. Groundwater level sensors monitor the dynamics of groundwater levels. Rising groundwater levels increase soil weight and pore water pressure, reducing soil shear strength and potentially triggering landslides. Working in concert, these multiple sensors can comprehensively collect data on frozen soil, improving the accuracy and reliability of landslide monitoring.
[0049] Median filtering is used to remove noise from data: Median filtering is a nonlinear filtering method that effectively removes impulse noise and salt-and-pepper noise while preserving edge information. When processing multi-source data, noise may be present due to factors such as sensor errors and external interference. This noise can affect subsequent feature extraction and risk assessment. Removing noise through median filtering improves data quality and makes subsequent analysis more accurate and reliable.
[0050] Use the min-max normalization method to normalize the data to the [0, 1] range: making the data comparable helps the machine learning algorithm better process and analyze the data, improving the model's training effect and prediction accuracy.
[0051] The displacement rate directly reflects the speed of soil movement; a sudden increase in displacement rate may signal an impending landslide. The groundwater level change rate reflects its dynamics; a rapidly rising groundwater level increases the risk of landslides. Temperature changes affect the physical properties of permafrost, and the temperature change rate reflects changes in the thermal state of permafrost, which has a significant impact on landslide occurrence. Taken together, these characteristic parameters can more comprehensively describe the potential risk of landslide hazards and improve the accuracy of risk assessments.
[0052] The machine learning algorithm uses the Random Forest algorithm: an ensemble learning method with high accuracy and stability. It constructs multiple decision trees and integrates their results for prediction, making it capable of handling high-dimensional data and complex nonlinear relationships. Using historical landslide data as training samples, characteristic parameters as input, and landslide risk levels as output for model training, the Random Forest algorithm automatically learns the complex relationship between characteristic parameters and landslide risk levels, thereby accurately assessing current landslide risk.
[0053] Landslide risk is categorized based on human activities within the region, with corresponding risk thresholds set for each tier. Human activities such as construction, road excavation, and mineral extraction can alter the soil's original state, increasing the likelihood of landslides. Considering human activities within a region allows for a more comprehensive assessment of landslide risk. This risk grading and setting corresponding thresholds make early warnings more scientific and reasonable. Different risk levels correspond to different early warning measures, enhancing their relevance and effectiveness.
[0054] Early warning information allows relevant personnel to promptly understand the severity of landslide hazards, the specific circumstances that may occur, and the appropriate response measures. The landslide risk level helps people determine the threat level; the time and location of possible occurrences allow people to prepare for prevention; and the response measures recommended provide specific guidance for action, helping to reduce losses caused by the disaster.
[0055] Multiple dissemination channels ensure that warning information reaches relevant personnel promptly and widely. Text messages can be sent directly to individual mobile phones, ensuring timely receipt of information; broadcasts can cover a large area, allowing more people to understand the warning; online platforms can provide detailed information and real-time updates; and on-site alarm devices can sound an alarm at the scene of a disaster, prompting nearby personnel to evacuate quickly.
[0056] The risk assessment model is updated using incremental learning methods to collect new data at regular intervals. The geological, meteorological, and human activities in the permafrost region of the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau are constantly changing, and old models may not accurately reflect current conditions. Regularly collecting new data and updating the model using incremental learning methods allows the model to adapt to these changes in a timely manner, maintaining the accuracy and effectiveness of landslide risk assessments. This incremental learning method allows for local adjustments to the model using new data without retraining the entire model, improving the efficiency of model updates.
[0057] The design focus of the present invention is to achieve accurate monitoring and timely warning of landslide disasters in the permafrost area of the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau through multi-source data collection, data preprocessing, feature extraction, risk assessment, warning issuance and dynamic updating, thereby improving the reliability and effectiveness of warnings and reducing the losses caused by landslide disasters; by adopting satellite remote sensing technology and ground sensor networks, it is possible to achieve comprehensive collection of various aspects of information in the permafrost area of the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau; by adopting median filtering, minimum-maximum normalization method and random forest algorithm, the accuracy of data processing and risk assessment is improved; the dynamic update mechanism ensures that the model can adapt to environmental changes in a timely manner, improving the reliability of warnings; the data quality monitoring unit ensures the accuracy and stability of the collected data, further enhancing the performance of the entire monitoring and early warning system.
[0058] The above description is merely a preferred embodiment of the present invention and does not limit the technical scope of the present invention. Therefore, any minor modifications, equivalent changes and modifications made to the above embodiments based on the technical essence of the present invention are still within the scope of the technical solution of the present invention.
