Description
TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of crop monitoring, and in particular to an intelligent crop monitoring and early warning method and system. BACKGROUND
[0002] In the field of agricultural production, accurate and efficient crop monitoring and early warning is of great importance. However, the existing crop monitoring and early warning technology has many shortcomings. Traditional crop monitoring methods often rely on manual field investigation, which is not only inefficient, but also difficult to achieve comprehensive and real-time monitoring of large areas of farmland. For example, plant protection personnel obtain crop disease and pest information through manual inspection and visual inspection, which is a huge workload and the accuracy is greatly influenced by personal experience, and the automation and intelligence level is seriously insufficient.
[0003] Some monitoring systems that use sensors and other technologies have achieved a certain degree of automation in data collection, but there are obvious shortcomings in data processing and analysis. On the one hand, the data sources are relatively single, and cannot comprehensively cover the key information of crop growth stages, making it difficult to accurately assess the crop condition. On the other hand, the existing systems lack precision and foresight in risk prediction and early warning, and cannot effectively screen out high-risk areas and develop countermeasures in advance. In addition, the existing technology lacks a scientific optimization method for the layout of monitoring points, resulting in low overall efficiency and poor stability of the monitoring network, and it is difficult to ensure accurate acquisition and timely warning of crop information in extreme situations.

This allows for precise subdivision of farmland into multiple agricultural monitoring grids, laying the foundation for subsequent refined monitoring. After acquiring multi-source agricultural data, a machine learning model is used to predict the agricultural risk level of each grid. This efficiently selects agricultural monitoring grids with risk levels exceeding a preset threshold as target early warning areas and accurately identifies risk sources and initial monitoring points, overcoming the previous problems of one-sided agricultural assessments and inaccurate risk area location. By establishing a multi-objective decision-making model and using an improved genetic algorithm to solve it, optimal monitoring points are determined. This process fully considers key factors such as spatial coverage of monitoring points, data acquisition accuracy, and deployment costs. Compared to the traditional arbitrary or unreasonable layout of monitoring points, this significantly improves the scientific rigor and rationality of the monitoring network, effectively controlling costs while ensuring data quality. By simulating and optimizing the evolution of agricultural conditions at monitoring points under extreme scenarios, and calculating stability indicators based on early warning accuracy, response timeliness, and cost volatility, optimized monitoring points with stability indicators higher than preset values are selected as the final agricultural condition early warning nodes, and a dynamic monitoring network is generated. This significantly enhances the reliability and stability of the monitoring system under complex and extreme conditions, enabling it to respond to changes in agricultural conditions more promptly and accurately, providing strong support for agricultural production, and realizing the transformation from traditional extensive agricultural condition monitoring and early warning to a precise, efficient, intelligent, and stable modern agricultural condition monitoring and early warning model.

[0058] To enable those skilled in the art to better understand the present invention, the technical solutions of the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present invention, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of the present invention.
[0059] In this document, the term "embodiment" means that a particular feature, structure, or characteristic described in connection with an embodiment may be included in at least one embodiment of the invention. The appearance of this phrase in various places throughout the specification does not necessarily refer to the same embodiment, nor is it a separate or alternative embodiment mutually exclusive with other embodiments. It will be explicitly and implicitly understood by those skilled in the art that the embodiments described herein can be combined with other embodiments.
[0060] Please see Figure 1 , Figure 1 This is a flowchart illustrating an intelligent agricultural condition monitoring and early warning method provided in an embodiment of the present invention. Figure 1 As shown, the method includes:
[0061] S10. Construct a three-dimensional geographic model of the farmland to be monitored, and divide the model into grids based on soil type, crop distribution and terrain data to generate multiple agricultural monitoring grids;
[0062] Traditional agricultural monitoring relies on manual sampling, which is insufficient to cover complex terrain and diverse planting structures. Three-dimensional models can intuitively reflect the three-dimensional structure of farmland, and grid-based division can subdivide the monitoring area into controllable units, improving monitoring accuracy.
[0063] Topographic elevation data was acquired using LiDAR from drones, and crop distribution was extracted by combining this with satellite remote sensing imagery. A spatial distribution model of soil types was constructed using soil sampling points. A continuous topographic surface was generated using Kriging interpolation, and grids were created at resolutions of 50m×50m or 100m×100m using ArcGIS grid analysis tools. Each grid was assigned attributes such as soil texture, fertility level, and crop variety. This standardized monitoring unit provides a unified spatial framework for subsequent multi-source data fusion, improving monitoring coverage compared to traditional methods.
[0064] S20. Acquire multi-source agricultural data, including soil moisture, meteorological indicators, crop growth stages and historical pest and disease data. Predict the agricultural risk level of each grid through machine learning models, screen agricultural monitoring grids with risk levels exceeding preset thresholds as target early warning areas, and identify risk sources and initial monitoring points within the target early warning areas.
[0065] A single data source cannot fully reflect changes in agricultural conditions. Machine learning can uncover hidden patterns in data and enable early risk identification.
[0066] In this step, data acquisition includes: 1) Soil moisture: deploying a distributed TDR sensor network; 2) Meteorological indicators: accessing data from the meteorological bureau's micro-meteorological stations; 3) Crop growth: extracting the NDVI index using a UAV multispectral camera; 4) Pests and diseases: integrating historical pest and disease monitoring data with satellite pest and disease remote sensing inversion results. A random forest algorithm is used, with historical disaster data as labels, to train a risk prediction model. A 12-dimensional feature vector is input, and a risk score of 0-10 is output. A risk threshold ≥7 is set as a high-risk area. Spatial overlay analysis is used to identify risk sources (such as continuously cropped fields) and initial monitoring points (risk center locations). This improves the accuracy of early warnings, allowing for earlier issuance of warnings compared to traditional manual forecasting.
[0067] See Figure 2 In one embodiment, the step of predicting the agricultural risk level of each grid using a machine learning model includes:
[0068] S201. Construct a feature set, which includes soil pH value, nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium content, cumulative precipitation, temperature fluctuation rate, crop disease resistance index and frequency of historical disasters;
[0069] Multi-source data integration:
[0070] Soil data: pH value and nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium content (EC value inversion) are collected in real time through a distributed sensor network.
[0071] Meteorological data: Accumulated precipitation and daily temperature range data for the past 30 days were obtained from the Meteorological Bureau API;
[0072] Crop data: Chlorophyll content was extracted from UAV hyperspectral images and combined with a variety database to generate a disease resistance index;
[0073] Historical data: Establish a GIS spatial database to record the location, intensity, and frequency of disasters over the past 5 years;
[0074] The Z-score method is used to normalize continuous features, and the contribution of each feature is calculated using the Gini index of random forest. Redundant features (importance less than 0.05) are removed, and finally 12 core features are retained. Feature dimension compression can reduce the amount of computation and improve the training speed of the model.
[0075] S202. The risk prediction model is trained using the random forest algorithm. The model parameters are optimized through cross-validation, and the probability distribution of drought risk, waterlogging risk and pest and disease risk for each grid is output.
[0076] The training and test sets were divided in a 7:3 ratio. The number of decision trees was set to 200, with a maximum depth of 8 layers. Five-fold cross-validation was used, and the evaluation metrics included the area under the ROC curve, precision, and recall. Then, soft voting was performed on the output of each tree to generate the final probability distribution.
[0077] S203. Generate a comprehensive risk level by weighted summation of risk probabilities, divide the risk into high, medium and low risk zones, and map the high risk zone to the target warning zone.
[0078] A comprehensive risk level is generated by weighted summation of risk probabilities: high-risk area: R ≥ 0.7; medium-risk area: 0.4 ≤ R < 0.7; low-risk area: R < 0.4. The probability grid is converted into vector polygons and spatially overlaid with the grid data from step S10. This enables a quantitative expression of risk, improving accuracy compared to traditional qualitative assessments. The generated risk heatmap can intuitively display the spatial distribution of risks, providing a basis for precise prevention and control.
[0079] This embodiment introduces "temperature fluctuation rate" as a sensitive indicator for crop stress early warning, constructs "historical disaster frequency-spatial autocorrelation" feature to capture risk clustering effect; adopts ensemble learning to reduce the overfitting risk of a single decision tree; and achieves parameter self-optimization through cross-validation to reduce manual parameter tuning costs.
[0080] S30. With the initial monitoring point's spatial coverage, data acquisition accuracy, and deployment cost as optimization objectives, a multi-objective decision model is established. The constraints include the maximum response distance between the monitoring point and the risk source, the minimum data update frequency, and the cost ceiling. An improved genetic algorithm is used to solve the model to determine the optimal monitoring point.
[0081] Traditional monitoring point deployment relies on experience, which can easily lead to low coverage or wasted costs. Multi-objective optimization can balance technical indicators and economic constraints.
[0082] In one embodiment, the construction of the multi-objective decision model includes defining a single-objective function, including:
[0083] Maximize spatial coverage:
[0084] ;
[0085] In the formula, For spatial coverage, For the first The effective coverage area of each monitoring point reflects the physical range within which data can be collected by that monitoring point. One monitoring point, , This is the terrain attenuation coefficient, used to quantify the weakening effect of terrain complexity (such as slope and vegetation density) on the cover effect. The baseline area threshold is used to adjust the sensitive region of the logic function, ensuring the non-linear mapping characteristics of the coverage.
[0086] Maximize data precision:
[0087] ;
[0088] In the formula, For data accuracy, For sensor resolution; The Euclidean distance between the monitoring point and the risk source; To calibrate the data frequency, , As a weighting factor;
[0089] Minimize deployment costs:
[0090] ;
[0091] In the formula, For deployment costs, For hardware costs, For communication link costs, To maintain costs, This is the cost coefficient;
[0092] The above single-objective functions are fused into a multi-objective decision model using fuzzy hierarchical analysis, and constraints are added:
[0093] ;
[0094] ;
[0095] ;
[0096] In the formula, For early warning response time, This is the upper limit for the early warning response time. The total cost threshold, This represents the minimum data accuracy requirement.
[0097] The spatial coverage function adopts an S-shaped logistic growth model. Simulate the terrain attenuation effect. When the effective area of the monitoring point... Exceeding the threshold At this time, the coverage efficiency exhibits an accelerating improvement characteristic, consistent with the diminishing marginal benefits law of actual monitoring equipment coverage. The data accuracy function introduces an inverse distance-squared proportional term. This reflects the physical law that monitoring resolution decreases with distance, and also through calibration frequency. Ensuring long-term data reliability. The cost model employs a linear combination approach, quantifying and adding together factors such as hardware, communication, and maintenance.
[0098] The subjective ambiguity of expert judgment is addressed using triangular fuzzy numbers, and a fuzzy judgment matrix is constructed to determine the weights of each objective. The fuzzy weights are then transformed into deterministic weight coefficients using the λ-cut method. A weighted summation method is employed to transform the multi-objective problem into a single-objective optimization problem, which is then determined by the analytic hierarchy process (AHP).
[0099] In the specific implementation and solution process:
[0100] 1) Parameter calibration stage:
[0101] Terrain attenuation coefficient , The average slope was calculated using DEM elevation data. Establish mapping relationship ;
[0102] Benchmark area Take 60% of the nominal coverage area of the monitoring equipment as the initial value;
[0103] Weighting factors , The entropy weight method is used for calculation, for example. .
[0104] 2) Model solution process:
[0105] 2.1) Data Acquisition: GIS geographic data, equipment parameter database, cost database;
[0106] 2.2) Constraint Handling: Use the penalty function method to... Equal constraints are incorporated into the objective function;
[0107] 2.3) Optimization solution: The NSGA-II multi-objective genetic algorithm is used, with a population size of 100 and 500 iterations.
[0108] 2.4) Pareto front analysis: Outputs a set of non-dominated solutions for decision-makers to choose from.
[0109] 3) Deployment verification:
[0110] Monte Carlo simulation: Randomly generating 1000 terrain-cost combinations to verify the robustness of the model;
[0111] On-site debugging: Collect actual coverage data after deployment and provide feedback for correction. , parameter.
[0112] This model, based on Pareto optimality theory, integrates three conflicting objective functions using fuzzy hierarchical analysis to form a unified evaluation system. The core idea is to find a set of non-dominated solutions (Pareto optimal solution set) that simultaneously optimizes the three objective functions while satisfying constraints.
[0113] The terrain attenuation effect is described by the Logistic function, which is more in line with the actual monitoring scenario than the traditional linear model. The inverse square law in physics is introduced to quantify the impact of the distance between the monitoring point and the risk source on the data accuracy. The weight of each target is dynamically determined by the fuzzy hierarchical analysis method to adapt to the needs of different agricultural scenarios.
[0114] S40. Simulate and optimize the evolution of agricultural conditions at monitoring points under extreme scenarios. Calculate stability indicators based on early warning accuracy, response timeliness, and cost volatility. Select optimized monitoring points with stability indicators higher than preset values as the final agricultural condition early warning nodes and generate a dynamic monitoring network.
[0115] Conventional monitoring networks are prone to failure under extreme weather conditions; stability assessments can enhance system robustness.
[0116] Preferably, the extreme scenarios include:
[0117] Extreme meteorological events: the spatiotemporal distribution patterns of persistent drought, torrential rain and flooding, and low-temperature freezing damage;
[0118] Biological disaster events: the coupling relationship between pest and disease spread pathways, insect egg hatching rates, and crop susceptibility periods;
[0119] Human intervention events: simulation of soil salinization caused by irrigation interruption and excessive fertilization.
[0120] In one embodiment, the simulation optimization of agricultural condition evolution at monitoring points under extreme scenarios includes:
[0121] A multi-dimensional scenario library is constructed based on extreme scenarios;
[0122] Based on computational fluid dynamics and agent-based models, the propagation trajectory of risk sources in various scenarios is dynamically simulated, and the data acquisition efficiency and early warning delay of monitoring nodes are evaluated to generate simulation results.
[0123] Calculate the stability index based on the simulation results:
[0124] ;
[0125] In the formula, For stability rating, To improve the accuracy of early warnings, The average response time, Cost volatility; For normalized weights.
[0126] This scheme constructs a highly stable agricultural monitoring and early warning network by simulating agricultural conditions under extreme scenarios and combining multi-dimensional dynamic assessment and optimization screening mechanisms. Its core principle lies in:
[0127] Extreme scenario simulation: Using a multi-dimensional scenario database, we simulate the impact of three types of extreme events—meteorological, biological, and human-induced—on agricultural systems, and quantify the risk propagation path and the response capabilities of monitoring nodes.
[0128] Dynamic stability assessment: based on early warning accuracy Average response time Cost volatility Constructing composite indicators Monitoring points with strong anti-interference capabilities were selected.
[0129] Network adaptive optimization: By dynamically monitoring the network generation mechanism, the system ensures that early warning nodes automatically adjust to changes in the environment, thereby improving the overall robustness of the system.
[0130] Specifically, in implementation, it includes
[0131] 1) Construction of a multi-dimensional scenario library:
[0132] Data fusion: Integrate meteorological satellite data, soil sensor records, historical outbreak patterns of pests and diseases, and human intervention logs to build an extreme event database covering spatiotemporal dimensions.
[0133] Context parameterization includes the following three types:
[0134] Meteorological events: Define drought index, rainfall intensity-duration-frequency curve, and low temperature duration threshold.
[0135] Biological disasters: Establish a correlation matrix between the spread rate of pests and diseases and temperature, humidity, and crop growth stage.
[0136] Human-induced events: Simulation of irrigation interruption cycles and fertilizer application-soil electrical conductivity relationship models.
[0137] 2) Dynamic simulation of risk transmission:
[0138] Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) Modeling:
[0139] Simulate the spatial diffusion process of meteorological disasters (such as floods) and output the risk coverage area and propagation speed. Example: Simulate storm runoff paths using the Navier-Stokes equations to predict the inundation area of farmland.
[0140] Agent-based model (ABM):
[0141] Construct a pest and disease transmission agent and define migration rules (such as the probability of wind spread and the influence of host crop density). Example: Simulate an exponential outbreak caused by the overlap of insect egg hatching rate and crop susceptibility period.
[0142] 3) Monitoring node evaluation and selection:
[0143] Data capture efficiency calculation: Calculates the probability that a monitoring node successfully identifies a risk event in the simulation. = Number of correct warnings / Total number of risk events.
[0144] Response timeliness quantification: Records the average delay time from when a risk reaches the monitoring area to when an alert is triggered. .
[0145] Cost fluctuation analysis: Calculate the coefficient of variation of node maintenance costs under extreme scenarios. , Standard deviation (mean).
[0146] Stability index calculation: based on Formula calculation, weight allocation can be The values are 0.5, 0.3, and 0.2 respectively.
[0147] 4) Dynamic monitoring network generation:
[0148] Node optimization: Filtering Monitoring points with values greater than a threshold (e.g., 0.8) form the backbone network.
[0149] Redundancy design: Deploy backup nodes in critical areas to automatically switch over when the backbone node fails.
[0150] Real-time updates: Dynamically adjust node weights by combining Internet of Things (IoT) data streams to adapt to sudden environmental changes.
[0151] In summary, this embodiment improves early warning accuracy and shortens the average response time in continuous drought simulation; through Optimization resulted in a 40% reduction in node maintenance cost volatility and a significant decrease in the risk of budget overruns under extreme scenarios. In rainstorm and flood scenarios, the dynamic network maintained over 85% of its nodes in effective operation. Under coupled pest and disease events, the monitoring network coverage was greatly improved. The generated risk heatmap and node stability map can guide agricultural insurance pricing and emergency resource pre-allocation. This solution, through a closed-loop "simulation-optimization-verification" approach, provides a complete solution for agricultural disaster early warning, from theory to engineering implementation, and is particularly suitable for the precision agriculture management needs in the context of intensified climate change.
[0152] Preferably, in one embodiment, the method further includes:
[0153] The monitoring network topology is updated in real time through collaborative inspections by drone swarms and ground sensors.
[0154] When a sudden increase in local risk level is detected, the monitoring point density adaptive adjustment algorithm is automatically triggered to add mobile monitoring nodes in the target area, while shutting down redundant nodes in low-risk areas to reduce energy consumption.
[0155] Ground sensors are widely deployed in the monitoring area to collect various environmental data such as temperature, humidity, gas concentration, and vibration. Simultaneously, a drone swarm is formed, with each drone equipped with high-precision sensors, communication modules, and positioning systems. The drone swarm and ground sensors establish communication connections via wireless networks (such as 5G or self-organizing networks) to form a monitoring network.
[0156] Ground sensors continuously collect data and transmit it to the control center in real time. A swarm of drones conducts regular inspections along preset routes. During these inspections, the drones use their onboard sensors to collect data on areas that are difficult for ground sensors to cover or key monitoring areas. The data collected by the drones is also transmitted back to the control center. Based on the received data from the drones and ground sensors, the control center uses graph theory algorithms (such as the minimum spanning tree algorithm and Dijkstra's algorithm) to construct and update the monitoring network topology in real time. This topology visually represents the location, connections, and data transmission paths of each monitoring node, providing fundamental data support for subsequent risk monitoring and node adjustments.
[0157] The control center pre-sets a risk assessment model that comprehensively considers factors such as the type of monitoring data, numerical trends, and comparisons with historical data to classify the monitoring area into risk levels (e.g., low, medium, and high). The control center continuously analyzes the data transmitted from each monitoring node to assess the risk level of each area in real time.
[0158] When the control center detects a sudden increase in the local risk level of a certain area (e.g., from low risk to high risk), it automatically triggers an adaptive adjustment algorithm for monitoring point density. This algorithm first calculates the number and location of additional mobile monitoring nodes needed in the target area based on the scope of the risk area, the risk type, and the distribution of existing monitoring nodes. Then, the control center sends instructions to the drone swarm, dispatching some drones as mobile monitoring nodes to fly to the target area, hover at designated locations, or fly along specific trajectories to collect data in real time, thereby increasing the monitoring density of the target area. Simultaneously, the control center evaluates monitoring nodes in low-risk areas, shutting down redundant nodes (i.e., ground sensor nodes with high data similarity and minimal impact on overall monitoring) to reduce unnecessary energy consumption. During the node adjustment process, the control center continuously monitors the network status to ensure the stability and integrity of data transmission.
[0159] By coordinating drone swarms with ground sensors for inspection, comprehensive and blind-spot-free coverage of the monitored area can be achieved. Drones can quickly reach areas inaccessible to ground sensors (such as mountainous areas, rooftops, and hazardous areas) to collect data, compensating for the blind spots of ground sensors. Simultaneously, the real-time updated monitoring network topology accurately reflects the working status and data transmission paths of each monitoring node. When the local risk level surges, node adjustments are rapidly triggered, adding mobile monitoring nodes to the target area. This results in denser and more accurate monitoring data, enabling timely detection of subtle changes in risk areas and providing reliable data support for risk warning and management, effectively improving the accuracy and timeliness of monitoring. Furthermore, it reduces equipment uptime, lowers maintenance costs and replacement frequency, further reducing operating costs and improving the economic efficiency and sustainability of the monitoring system.
[0160] In summary, this invention constructs a three-dimensional geographic model of the monitored farmland and divides it into grids based on soil type, crop distribution, and topographic data. This allows for precise subdivision of farmland into multiple agricultural monitoring grids, laying the foundation for subsequent refined monitoring. After acquiring multi-source agricultural data, a machine learning model is used to predict the agricultural risk level of each grid. This efficiently selects agricultural monitoring grids with risk levels exceeding a preset threshold as target early warning areas and accurately identifies risk sources and initial monitoring points, overcoming the previous problems of one-sided agricultural assessments and inaccurate risk area location. By establishing a multi-objective decision-making model and using an improved genetic algorithm to solve it, optimal monitoring points are determined. This process fully considers key factors such as spatial coverage of monitoring points, data acquisition accuracy, and deployment costs. Compared to traditional arbitrary or unreasonable monitoring point layouts, this significantly improves the scientific rigor and rationality of the monitoring network, effectively controlling costs while ensuring data quality. By simulating and optimizing the evolution of agricultural conditions at monitoring points under extreme scenarios, and calculating stability indicators based on early warning accuracy, response timeliness, and cost volatility, optimized monitoring points with stability indicators higher than preset values are selected as the final agricultural condition early warning nodes, and a dynamic monitoring network is generated. This significantly enhances the reliability and stability of the monitoring system under complex and extreme conditions, enabling it to respond to changes in agricultural conditions more promptly and accurately, providing strong support for agricultural production, and realizing the transformation from traditional extensive agricultural condition monitoring and early warning to a precise, efficient, intelligent, and stable modern agricultural condition monitoring and early warning model.
