Abstract

Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of environmental remote sensing monitoring, and in particular to a remote sensing time series measurement technology for suspended sediment in the middle and lower reaches of the Yangtze River. Background Art
[0002] Suspended sediment is one of the most important water quality parameters. Its concentration and the patterns of its deposition and movement directly impact estuary management and flood control safety. Conventional methods for measuring suspended sediment involve collecting water samples on-site, filtering them, drying them, weighing them, and calculating their concentration. This method is time-consuming and labor-intensive, and struggles to meet the requirements of large-scale monitoring. Remote sensing technology, with its macroscopic, large-scale monitoring capabilities, can provide simultaneous remote sensing images of large areas of water, offering unique advantages in water environment monitoring.
[0003] However, the current traditional single-source remote sensing inversion method is difficult to adapt to the complex water and sediment environment in the middle and lower reaches of the Yangtze River and fails to effectively integrate spatial characteristics and time series correlations, resulting in insufficient data accuracy.

[0006] Preferably, the image data in S1 includes remote sensing images of different platforms, different spectral resolutions and different temporal resolutions;
[0007] Said platforms include satellite impact, drone hyperspectral imagery, and drone hyperspectral imagery;
[0008] The time mentioned includes the flood season, dry season and flood season.

[0011] The extracted parameters are used as spectral characteristic parameters related to suspended sediment concentration.
[0012] Preferably, the neural network model in S4 adopts a dual-channel deep learning architecture, including a spatial feature extraction channel and a temporal association analysis channel, and dynamically allocates the weight ratio of spatial and temporal features through an attention mechanism.
[0013] Preferably, the neural network model is pre-trained based on a public data set, and measured data from the Yangtze River Basin is used in the fine-tuning stage.
[0014] The advantages of the present invention compared with the existing technology are: constructing a technical system of collaborative observation-hybrid deep learning modeling-spatiotemporal dynamic reconstruction, solving the problem of insufficient spatiotemporal coverage of traditional single-source remote sensing based on satellite-UAV-ground observation, realizing full-time monitoring during the flood season, dry season and flood season, and ensuring data reliability through a dual-channel deep learning model. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS
[0015] Figure 1 It is a structural diagram of the patent name of this invention. DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0016] The present invention will be described in further detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.
[0017] Combined with attachment Figure 1 As shown in FIG, the remote sensing time series measurement technology for suspended sediment in the middle and lower reaches of the Yangtze River includes the following steps: S1: acquiring multi-source remote sensing image data covering the middle and lower reaches of the Yangtze River; S2: preprocessing the acquired remote sensing image data; S3: performing feature extraction on the preprocessed data to obtain spectral characteristic parameters related to the suspended sediment concentration; S4: constructing a neural network model suitable for inverting the suspended sediment concentration in the middle and lower reaches of the Yangtze River, and inverting the spectral characteristic parameters in S3 to obtain the suspended sediment concentration corresponding to each remote sensing image; S5: arranging the inverted suspended sediment concentration data in chronological order to generate remote sensing time series data of suspended sediment in the middle and lower reaches of the Yangtze River.
[0018] The image data in S1 include remote sensing images from different platforms, different spectral resolutions and different temporal resolutions; the platforms include satellite images, drone hyperspectral images and drone hyperspectral images; the time includes the wet season, dry season and flood season, and the preprocessing includes radiation calibration, atmospheric correction and geometric correction.
[0019] For the acquired preprocessed data, the reflectance ratio of the preprocessed remote sensing image in the red and near-infrared bands, the normalized difference vegetation index in the blue, green and red bands are calculated, and the slope and curvature of the reflectance curve of the remote sensing image in different bands are extracted. The extracted parameters are used as spectral characteristic parameters related to suspended sediment concentration.
[0020] The neural network model adopts a dual-channel deep learning architecture, including a spatial feature extraction channel and a temporal association analysis channel. It dynamically allocates the weight ratio of spatial and temporal features through the attention mechanism. The neural network model is pre-trained based on a public dataset, and measured data from the Yangtze River Basin is used in the fine-tuning stage.
[0021] In a specific implementation of the present invention, multi-source remote sensing image data covering the middle and lower reaches of the Yangtze River is acquired, the multi-source remote sensing image data including remote sensing images from different satellite platforms, with different spectral resolutions and different temporal resolutions. The acquired multi-source remote sensing image data is preprocessed, including radiometric calibration, atmospheric correction, and geometric correction. Based on the preprocessed remote sensing image data, spectral characteristic parameters related to suspended sediment concentration are extracted.
[0022] Among them, radiation calibration converts the pixel brightness value of the remote sensing image into apparent reflectance or radiance. Atmospheric correction adopts a method based on the radiation transfer model to remove the influence of scattering and absorption of atmospheric molecules and aerosols on the radiation information of the remote sensing image. Geometric correction uses high-precision digital elevation models and ground control points as a benchmark to perform geometric deformation correction on remote sensing images, so that remote sensing images from different sources have unified geographic coordinates and projections.
[0023] The measured suspended sediment concentration data were collected from multiple sampling points in the middle and lower reaches of the Yangtze River, and pre-processed remote sensing image data of the corresponding sampling points during the same period were obtained. The measured suspended sediment concentration data and the corresponding spectral characteristic parameters were combined into a training data set. The convolutional neural network was trained using the training data set and the parameters of the neural network were adjusted.
[0024] The inverted suspended sediment concentration data were sorted in chronological order to generate the suspended sediment remote sensing time series data for the middle and lower reaches of the Yangtze River.
