Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of ecological hydrological management technology, and more specifically to an intelligent management system for agricultural and pastoral ecological hydrology based on cloud-edge-device collaboration. Background Technology

[0002] With the intensification of global climate change and human activities, the coupling relationship between hydrological processes and ecosystems in the agro-pastoral ecotone, as an ecologically fragile and resource-sensitive area, is becoming increasingly complex. Traditional eco-hydrological management models are no longer sufficient to meet the needs of efficient water resource allocation, ecological protection, and coordinated production development in this region. Currently, the information-based management of eco-hydrology in the agro-pastoral ecotone faces the following key bottlenecks:

[0003] First, there is a serious "data silo" problem in the data acquisition stage. Existing monitoring methods mainly include satellite remote sensing, UAV patrols, and ground sensors. However, due to the diverse sources of equipment, heterogeneous data formats, and inconsistent communication protocols, it is difficult to achieve standardized access and fusion analysis of multi-source data, which seriously restricts information sharing and system integration.

[0004] Secondly, the computing processing method suffers from high response latency. Currently, most platforms still rely on centralized cloud computing centers for data processing and model calculations, lacking the localized intelligent processing capabilities of edge nodes. In scenarios requiring rapid response, such as flood warnings (e.g., response time less than 2 hours), traditional architectures often fail to meet real-time requirements, impacting decision-making timeliness and emergency response capabilities.

[0005] Secondly, there are issues of "fragmentation and reliance on experience" in decision support. There is a lack of scientific and quantitative balancing mechanisms between ecological protection and livestock production, and a lack of intelligent decision-making models based on multi-objective optimization. This makes it difficult for management strategies to balance ecological and economic benefits, resulting in a highly subjective and poorly adaptable decision-making process.

[0006] Therefore, how to provide an intelligent management system for agricultural and pastoral ecological hydrology based on cloud-edge-device collaboration is a problem that urgently needs to be solved by those skilled in the art. Summary of the Invention

[0044] 1) Data integration and breaking down "data silos":

[0045] By integrating multi-source data, including space-based (satellite imagery), air-based (LiDAR point cloud), and ground-based (sensor data), the problem of heterogeneous data formats and lack of unified access standards among traditional monitoring equipment has been solved. This allows data from different sources to be analyzed on the same platform, improving the comprehensiveness and accuracy of data analysis.

[0046] 2) Real-time performance and low latency:

[0047] By adopting 5G slicing network technology and a hierarchical processing architecture, dedicated bandwidth is provided for emergency data (such as flood warnings and ecological disasters). This means that edge-layer local computing avoids the network jumps of traditional cloud center processing, reduces the data transmission distance, and thus ensures the rapid transmission of information. The response time is less than 50ms, which is far lower than the response time of traditional cloud center processing mode (>2 hours), meeting the needs of real-time decision-making.

[0048] 3) Intelligent model inference and optimization decision support:

Furthermore, the application of the NSGA-II multi-objective genetic algorithm helps resolve the conflict between ecological protection and livestock production, achieving an optimal balance between economic and ecological benefits.

[0107] III. Cloud Platform

[0108] 1. Digital Twin Engine:

[0109] This invention constructs a digital twin of a watershed by fusing LiDAR point clouds (5cm accuracy), Sentinel-2 imagery, and geological data. Its function is to achieve a dynamic mapping between the physical watershed and the digital space through virtual modeling and real-time data-driven approaches, thereby supporting the simulation, prediction, and decision optimization of eco-hydrological processes. In dynamic simulations and scenario extrapolations, the digital twin engine can simulate eco-hydrological responses under different management strategies (grazing intensity, precipitation changes), specifically including: predicting grassland degradation trends, assessing flood inundation extent, quantifying changes in carbon sink potential, and calculating grazing carrying capacity. These simulation results provide managers with a scientific basis to help them formulate more effective ecological protection and resource utilization strategies. In multi-source data fusion, the digital twin engine unifies and integrates data from space-based (satellite imagery), air-based (LiDAR point clouds), and ground-based (sensor data) observations into a three-dimensional space, solving the problem of data silos. (Its main technical advantages are supporting spatiotemporal matching and data assimilation; for example, fusing UAV LiDAR terrain data with Sentinel-2 imagery to generate high-precision land use maps; combining soil moisture sensor data with the GRACE-FO groundwater model to analyze water cycle paths.) In terms of intelligent decision support, the digital twin engine provides real-time virtual visualization output, such as grazing boundaries and grazing routes, and supports dynamic parameter injection (such as precipitation scenario simulation, soil moisture and vegetation cover changes), enabling real-time rendering of eco-hydrological responses and enhancing the visualization and interactivity of decision-making.

[0110] 2. Model Library:

[0111] The model library integrates various eco-hydrological analysis models, providing algorithmic support for data-driven decision-making. These models are used for different analytical tasks, such as predicting hydrological changes, assessing grassland productivity, or optimizing grazing routes. The library serves as a centralized location for storing and managing these models, facilitating their retrieval and updates.

[0112] In subsequent steps, the model library may be used in the data processing phase, such as for in-depth analysis on cloud platforms or for real-time computation at edge nodes. For instance, when an edge gateway detects abnormal data, it may need to call upon lightweight models from the model library for rapid analysis. Furthermore, during the decision-making phase, models from the library can be used to generate optimization suggestions or early warning information.

[0113] The model library spans the entire agro-pastoral eco-hydrological network platform system, playing a crucial role, particularly in in-depth analysis of multi-source data, multi-model analysis of the water-grass-livestock coupled system, multi-scenario simulation and intelligent decision-making. Specific model types are as follows:

[0114] Hydrological models: SWAT-HS is used for watershed-scale water cycle simulation, and HEC-RAS is used for rapid simulation of flood inundation extent;

[0115] Ecological models: CENTURY is used for grassland carbon cycle simulation, and TensorFlow Lite is used for local grassland carrying capacity assessment.

[0116] AI models: Deep reinforcement learning (DRL) is used to optimize grazing routes, and LSTM is used to predict drought risk.

[0120] [2] Evidence preservation process:

[0121] Sensor data is uploaded to the blockchain after being hashed using SHA-256.

[0122] The data block header includes a timestamp, GPS coordinates, and device ID to ensure the data source is traceable.

[0123] Smart contracts automatically verify data integrity to prevent tampering and forgery.

[0124] ② Ecological compensation:

[0125] [1] The blockchain-based ecological compensation mechanism achieves automated execution through smart contracts:

[0126] When the ESI of a certain grassland is >0.8 for 3 consecutive months, compensation is triggered:

[0127]

[0128] in, For grassland ecological compensation funds. Let A be a coefficient, and A be the grassland area. The price is for carbon sinks (RMB / ton).

[0129] IV. Decision-making level

[0130] ① Multi-objective optimization:

[0131] To achieve a balance between ecological and economic benefits, this invention employs a multi-objective optimization method, constructing the following objective function:

[0132]

[0133] in, For the benefit of the livestock economy, For ecological water demand, For net ecosystem productivity, For ecological security index, The carrying capacity of grassland. The maximum carrying capacity of the grassland. Soil moisture content, This represents the critical threshold for soil moisture. , , , , The weights are denoted by , and ESI stands for Ecological Security Index.

[0134] The solution algorithm employs the NSGA-II multi-objective genetic algorithm, outputting a Pareto front solution set for decision-makers to select the optimal compromise. This method effectively addresses the difficulty of balancing multiple objectives in traditional empirical decision-making, enhancing the scientific rigor and adaptability of the decision-making process.

[0135] ② AR interactive terminal:

[0136] This invention introduces Microsoft HoloLens 2 augmented reality glasses as a human-computer interaction terminal to improve the level of intelligence in on-site operations:

[0137] Real-time overlay of virtual grazing boundaries: green indicates grazing areas and red indicates no-grazing areas, helping herders to intuitively identify compliant areas;

[0138] Voice prompts provide key indicators, such as "Soil moisture ahead is 12%, it is recommended to stay for less than 2 hours," to help herders make immediate judgments.

[0139] Gesture operation to access historical data comparison: Users can use swipe gestures to view the difference in NDVI between this month and last month, and grasp the trend of grassland health status changes.

[0140] The specific implementation steps of this invention are as follows:

[0141] 1. Network Architecture Construction

[0142] ①Perception layer:

[0143] Space-based: Access Sentinel-2, GRACE-FO and FY-4A data, and update vegetation index, groundwater storage and precipitation forecast data daily and upload them directly to the cloud platform;

[0144] Airborne: UAV aerial survey data (LiDAR + multispectral) is transmitted to the edge layer via a 5G slicing network at the transmission layer, preprocessed, and then uploaded to the cloud platform;

[0145] Foundation: IoT sensors (soil multi-parameter instrument, livestock smart collar) transmit data to the edge layer via LoRaWAN in the transmission layer, and are then pre-processed by the site edge gateway before being synchronized to the cloud platform;

[0146] ②Transport layer:

[0147] 5G slicing network: Allocates dedicated channels for emergency data (such as rainstorm warnings), with latency <50ms.

[0148] BeiDou short message service: Ensuring data transmission in areas without network coverage (such as monitoring points in desert areas).

[0149] ③ Edge layer:

[0150] Regional peripheral center: Run the SWAT-HS model to generate weekly water supply and demand reports;

[0151] Station edge gateway: Real-time calculation of grassland carrying capacity,

[0152] ④ Cloud platform:

[0153] Digital Twin Engine: Constructing a 3D model of the watershed to simulate ecological responses under different grazing / precipitation scenarios.

[0154] Decision-Making Cockpit: Visualizes the Ecological Security Index (ESI), Water Pressure Level (WPL), etc.

[0155] 2. Intelligent Application Scenarios

[0156] ① Grassland degradation early warning:

[0157] The edge gateway collects and analyzes NDVI (Normalized Difference Vegetation Index) and soil moisture data from the perception layer in real time. When an NDVI decrease of more than 15% and soil moisture content is below 10% in a certain area, an alarm mechanism is triggered, and the relevant data is stored as evidence using blockchain technology.

[0158] After receiving data uploaded by the edge gateway, the cloud platform uses historical data and a deep reinforcement learning (DRL) model to assess the risk of grassland degradation in the affected area over the next three months. If the prediction shows a degradation risk probability exceeding 80%, a detailed ecological security report is generated.

[0159] Based on the assessment results, the system automatically generates grazing bans to prevent further deterioration. These bans are pushed directly to local herders via augmented reality (AR) glasses, while simultaneously initiating ecological compensation smart contracts to ensure that affected areas receive appropriate economic compensation or restoration measures.

[0160] ② Flood risk prevention and control:

[0161] The sensing layer continuously monitors precipitation in the region using space-based satellites (such as the FY-4A meteorological satellite). When the cumulative precipitation exceeds 50 mm within 24 hours, an initial warning signal is immediately generated and the edge layer is notified to prepare to activate the emergency response procedure.

[0162] Upon receiving the early warning signal, the edge layer rapidly activates a lightweight HEC-RAS flood model. Combined with LiDAR (VelodynePuck) point cloud analysis, it acquires runoff paths, waterlogged areas, and gully development information for running a simplified version of the HEC-RAS model, enabling rapid simulation of the flood inundation extent. The inundation extent map is generated within 10 minutes, with an accuracy controlled within ±5 meters.

[0163] LiDAR terrain data and precipitation data are fused and preprocessed, compressed, and then uploaded to the cloud platform. The cloud platform integrates all relevant information, including simulation results and real-time meteorological data, and hashes the early warning event on the blockchain. At the same time, the full-featured SWAT-HS model is called to verify the reliability of the edge layer model simulation results, forming comprehensive flood early warning information and pushing the final instructions to the decision-making level.

[0164] The decision-makers broadcast early warning information to residents in the relevant areas through the 5G network, providing specific evacuation guidelines and instructing livestock to be moved to safe areas.

[0165] Decision-makers may also use AR devices to provide intuitive operational guidance to on-site rescue personnel, thereby improving response efficiency.
