[0060] The present invention proposes a shallow geothermal energy development modeling method, system and equipment based on multi-source data fusion.
[0061] The embodiment of the present invention provides a shallow geothermal energy development modeling method based on multi-source data fusion, referring to Figure 2 , Figure 2 This is a flow chart of an embodiment of a shallow geothermal energy development modeling method based on multi-source data fusion according to the present invention.
[0062] like Figure 2 As shown, the shallow geothermal energy development modeling method based on multi-source data fusion includes:
[0063] Step S100: Jointly interpolating shallow geothermal data with engineering geological data and hydrogeological data to generate a virtual borehole;

[0067] It should be noted that the execution subject in this embodiment may be an electronic device, which may be a computer device with data processing capabilities, or other devices that can achieve the same or similar functions. This embodiment does not limit this. In this embodiment, a computer device is used as an example for illustration.
[0068] It is understandable that this embodiment uses the grid modeling tool usage process based on multi-source data fusion to assist shallow geothermal energy development as an example to illustrate, including steps such as multi-source data standardization and integration, grid model construction, and real-time analysis. By integrating engineering geology, hydrogeology, and geothermal data, a high-precision three-dimensional geothermal field grid model is constructed, thereby solving the problem of geothermal data sparsity. Specifically, this embodiment, under the premise of collecting thematic geological attribute parameters such as engineering geology, hydrogeology, and shallow geothermal energy, jointly interpolates sparse geothermal well data with engineering and hydrological borehole data to generate virtual geothermal points. Combined with parameters such as stratum lithology, aquifers, and thermal conductivity, the model is constrained by anisotropic interpolation according to different variogram parameters in the vertical and horizontal directions, and a high-precision, high-reliability geothermal grid model is constructed. It can generate real-time analysis methods such as stepped temperature distribution profiles and temperature contour lines, thereby improving the accuracy of geological parameter inversion and the reliability of thermal reservoir prediction. The following is an explanation in conjunction with specific steps.
[0069] In one embodiment, shallow geothermal data is jointly interpolated with engineering geological data and hydrogeological data to generate a virtual borehole, including: obtaining initial engineering geological data, initial hydrogeological data and initial shallow geothermal data; performing coordinate system alignment and outlier removal on the initial engineering geological data, initial hydrogeological data and initial shallow geothermal data to obtain engineering geological data, hydrogeological data and shallow geothermal data; and constructing a virtual borehole based on the joint interpolation of the engineering geological data, hydrogeological data and shallow geothermal data.
[0070] In one embodiment, the engineering geological data includes borehole number, borehole type, longitude, latitude and lithology name; the hydrogeological data includes borehole number, borehole type, longitude, latitude, permeability coefficient and aquifer category; the shallow geothermal data includes borehole number, longitude, latitude, formation depth and thermal response test data.
[0071] Specifically, if Figure 3 As shown in the figure, multi-source data standardization and integration: collect thematic drilling data such as engineering geology, hydrogeology and shallow geothermal, first unify the coordinate system of the data and remove outliers of the values to ensure data quality and participate in subsequent interpolation, then obtain the temperature data of each layer according to the layered information of the shallow geothermal data, interpolate the points of the engineering holes and hydrological holes, obtain the temperature values of the engineering holes and hydrological holes at the same depth, generate the corresponding shallow geothermal virtual boreholes, organize and merge the data into the shallow geothermal drilling data, and realize the expansion of shallow geothermal drilling data.
[0072] For example, multi-source data collection includes: Engineering geological data: borehole number, borehole type, longitude, latitude, lithology name, etc. Hydrogeological data: borehole number, borehole type, longitude, latitude, permeability coefficient, aquifer type, etc. Shallow geothermal data: borehole number, longitude, latitude, formation depth, and thermal response test data.
[0073] For example, in engineering geological data, the borehole number is used to uniquely identify each borehole, facilitating data management and query. For example, in a large geological exploration project, there are hundreds of boreholes, and the numbers can be used to quickly locate and distinguish different boreholes. Borehole type: Different borehole types (such as exploration holes, test holes, etc.) reflect the use and purpose of the borehole, which helps to classify and analyze the data. Longitude and latitude: Determine the geographical location of the borehole and are used to locate and display the borehole in geographic space. Lithology name: Records the rock type of the stratum through which the borehole passes, such as sandstone, shale, etc., which is used to understand the underground geological structure and the basic conditions for engineering construction. In hydrogeological data, the borehole number, borehole type, longitude, latitude, etc. have similar functions to the corresponding fields in engineering geological data, and are used to identify the borehole and determine its location. Permeability coefficient: Reflects the ease with which groundwater flows in rock or soil. It is a very important parameter in hydrogeological research and is of great significance for groundwater resource evaluation and engineering waterproofing design. Aquifer type: For example, phreatic aquifers and confined aquifers. Different aquifer types have different hydrogeological characteristics, which have a significant impact on the development and management of water resources. In shallow geothermal data, borehole number, longitude, and latitude are also used to identify boreholes and determine locations. Formation depth: Recording the depth information of different formations helps to understand how underground temperature changes with depth. Thermal response test data: Data obtained through thermal response tests, such as thermal conductivity and thermal diffusivity, are used to evaluate the development potential and utilization efficiency of shallow geothermal energy.
[0074] Specifically, if Figure 3 Data preprocessing is shown in the figure. Coordinate System 1: Use a unified coordinate system, such as the CGCS2000 coordinate system. The 1985 National Elevation Standard can be used as the elevation datum. Stratigraphic Coding Standardization: Lithological strata are classified and coded according to the ISO 19136 standard (e.g., Q4 represents Quaternary alluvial deposits). Outlier Removal: Data outside the geologically reasonable range is removed. Outlier detection methods include statistical methods (such as the Z-score method and the interquartile range method). By setting a reasonable threshold, data exceeding the threshold is considered an outlier and removed.
[0075] In this embodiment, by unifying the coordinate system of all data, the spatial consistency of the data is ensured, which facilitates subsequent data processing and analysis. Outliers are detected and removed from the data to improve the accuracy of subsequent data analysis.
[0076] In one embodiment, a virtual borehole is constructed based on the joint interpolation of the engineering geological data, hydrogeological data, and shallow geothermal data, including: determining a division standard for the bottom plate depth of each layer based on the shallow geothermal data to obtain stratification information; extracting shallow geothermal data of the same depth layer of each hole based on the stratification information to obtain an original shallow geothermal data set for each layer; and interpolating the original shallow geothermal data set, the engineering geological data, and the hydrogeological data based on a preset interpolation method to obtain a virtual borehole.
[0077] In one embodiment, interpolating the original shallow geothermal dataset with the engineering geological data and hydrogeological data based on a preset interpolation method to obtain a virtual borehole includes: interpolating the original shallow geothermal dataset of each layer with the engineering geological data and hydrogeological data based on the preset interpolation method to obtain an interpolation result; extracting the interpolated temperature at the target location based on the interpolation result to obtain temperature data of the engineering borehole and the hydrogeological borehole at the same depth; and obtaining a shallow geothermal virtual borehole based on the engineering borehole and the hydrogeological borehole based on the temperature data and the engineering geological information and hydrogeological information at the target location. Preset interpolation methods include inverse distance weighting, kriging, and radial basis function interpolation.
[0078] Specifically, if Figure 3 As shown, a virtual borehole is generated. Geological layer data evaluation: Based on the original shallow geothermal data, the floor depth criteria for each layer are determined (e.g., two-meter increments per layer, Layer 1: 0m, Layer 2: 2m, Layer 3: 4m, etc.). Geological layer data integration: The original shallow geothermal data for each layer at the same depth in each well is extracted to generate the original shallow geothermal dataset for each layer (as shown in Table 1 below). Spatial interpolation: Each extracted shallow geothermal dataset is interpolated with the engineering geology data and hydrogeology data. The interpolation method is selected based on the actual situation. Examples include inverse distance weighting (IDW), which assumes that neighboring points have a greater influence and is suitable for uniform data distribution; Kriging, which considers spatial autocorrelation and generates error estimates and is suitable for geological data; and radial basis function (RBF), which provides smooth interpolation and is suitable for complex variations. Virtual borehole generation: The interpolated temperature is extracted at the target location (e.g., a specific coordinate point) to obtain temperature data for the engineering borehole and hydrogeology borehole at the same depth, thus generating a virtual borehole for the shallow geothermal system based on the engineering borehole and hydrogeology borehole.
[0079] Table 1 Original shallow geothermal data set
[0080]
[0081] It's important to note that the interpolation method described above can be used to obtain engineering geology, hydrogeology, and shallow geothermal properties at the same depth at any location within the study area (target location). For example, by extracting the interpolated temperature value at a specific coordinate point (target location), we can obtain the temperature data for the engineering and hydrological wells at that depth, and then generate virtual boreholes for shallow geothermal energy based on these wells. These virtual boreholes are used to supplement actual borehole data, providing more comprehensive and detailed information for shallow geothermal energy assessment, geological analysis of engineering construction, and hydrogeological research.
[0082] In one example, the information of a virtual borehole may include basic information and layered information, wherein the basic information may include the borehole number, borehole type (such as a virtual shallow geothermal borehole), longitude and latitude, etc., and the layered information may include, for each stratum depth layer, recording the temperature, lithology name, permeability coefficient, aquifer category and other information of the layer.
[0083] Understandably, in actual geological structures, temperatures at different depths can vary. Therefore, temperature data is organized based on geological stratification. For example, the underground can be divided into different strata, with each stratum assigned a specific temperature value. This provides a more accurate representation of the underground temperature distribution. Since the distribution of engineering boreholes and hydrological boreholes can be discrete, interpolation methods are required to obtain temperature values at more locations at the same depth. This interpolation allows temperature estimates to be made for the areas between the engineering and hydrological boreholes. Based on the interpolated temperature values of the engineering and hydrological boreholes at the same depth, corresponding shallow geothermal virtual boreholes are generated. These virtual boreholes represent shallow geothermal information at locations between the actual boreholes, effectively creating "virtual" borehole data in locations where no actual measurements were taken. By organizing and merging the generated virtual borehole data into the shallow geothermal borehole data, the shallow geothermal borehole data is expanded. This increases data density and coverage, providing richer and more accurate data support for subsequent shallow geothermal energy assessment, development, and utilization.
[0084] In one embodiment, a geothermal grid model is constructed based on the shallow geothermal data, the virtual borehole, and anisotropic interpolation constraints, including: determining a target area based on horizontal boundaries, elevation, and depth data; importing the data of the target area into Zgis software to obtain a spatial grid framework; segmenting the spatial grid framework using an octree method to obtain a segmented spatial grid; and superimposing and constraining the shallow geothermal properties of the virtual borehole and the shallow geothermal data onto the segmented spatial grid using anisotropic interpolation combined with Kriging interpolation to obtain a geothermal grid model.
[0085] In one embodiment, anisotropic interpolation is combined with Kriging interpolation to superimpose and constrain the shallow geothermal properties of the virtual borehole and the shallow geothermal data into the segmented spatial grid to obtain a geothermal grid model, including: determining the principal axis of variation as the vertical direction based on the change characteristics of the shallow geothermal properties in the horizontal and vertical directions; setting the range parameters in the horizontal and vertical directions; performing coordinate transformation based on the principal axis of variation and the range parameters to convert the anisotropic space into an isotropic space; and in the isotropic space, using Kriging interpolation to superimpose and constrain the shallow geothermal properties of the virtual borehole and the shallow geothermal data into the segmented spatial grid to obtain a geothermal grid model.
[0086] Specifically, if Figure 3 As shown in the figure, the grid model is constructed: first, the spatial scope of the target area is determined by the horizontal boundary, elevation, and depth, and then it is imported into the Zgis software to construct a spatial grid framework. The appropriate segmentation method is selected to segment the spatial grid framework. After the segmentation is completed, the model is constrained by anisotropic interpolation using Zgis. According to the different variogram parameters in the vertical and horizontal directions, the shallow geothermal properties of the borehole are superimposed and constrained to the spatial grid. Then, the grid shallow geothermal properties are graded and colored according to the level of the grid, and the evaluation grid model is rendered and displayed.
[0087] For example, Figure 4 As shown, grid framework construction: Based on horizontal boundary, elevation, depth and other data, the target area is delineated, and the grid resolution (for example, X: 10m; Y: 10m; Z: 1m) is selected as a unit (grid). The data is then imported into ZGIS software. Grid subdivision: Based on the constructed grid framework, ZGIS software can be used to subdivide the grid framework using an octree method.
[0088] For example, anisotropic interpolation: Considering that shallow geothermal properties may have different ranges and variogram parameters in the horizontal and vertical directions, this example uses anisotropic interpolation combined with kriging interpolation to assign shallow geothermal properties using ZGIS software. The shallow geothermal properties of the boreholes are overlaid and constrained onto a spatial grid.
[0089] Specifically, refer to Figure 5 The interpolation parameter settings shown in the figure are as follows: first, the principal axis of variation is determined to be in the vertical direction; then, the range parameters in the horizontal and vertical directions are set according to the actual situation; then, a coordinate transformation is performed to convert the anisotropic space into an isotropic one; and then, the ordinary Kriging method is applied.
[0090] For example, based on the horizontal and vertical variation characteristics of shallow geothermal properties, the main axis of variation is determined to be the vertical direction, and the vertical variation will be given priority consideration in the subsequent interpolation process. Based on the actual geological conditions, existing research results, and preliminary analysis of the data, the horizontal range parameters and vertical range parameters are set. In order to convert the anisotropic space into an isotropic space, a coordinate transformation is required. Under the new coordinate system, the spatial correlation has the same range in all directions, that is, isotropy is achieved. In the transformed coordinate system, the experimental variation function is calculated. A suitable theoretical variation function model (such as a spherical model, an exponential model, a Gaussian model, etc.) is selected to fit the experimental variation function. For each grid node to be interpolated, a kriging equation system is constructed based on the surrounding known borehole data to solve the weight coefficient. The kriging equation system can be solved using linear algebra methods to obtain the weight coefficient and Lagrange multiplier. The shallow geothermal property estimates for the interpolated grid nodes are calculated based on the weight coefficients obtained. The interpolation results for each grid node are assigned to the corresponding spatial grid node, completing the shallow geothermal property interpolation process. This results in a continuous shallow geothermal property distribution across the entire spatial grid, which can be used for subsequent analysis and visualization.
[0091] In this embodiment, when constructing the geothermal grid model, considering that underground geological conditions often vary differently in the vertical and horizontal directions, anisotropy is introduced. Combined with parameters such as stratum lithology, aquifers, and thermal conductivity, different variogram parameters are determined for the vertical and horizontal directions. A variogram is a function that describes the spatial variability of a regionalized variable, reflecting the characteristics of the variable's variation at different distances and directions. For example, in the horizontal direction, the stratum lithology may be relatively uniform, and the ground temperature may vary relatively slowly; however, in the vertical direction, due to factors such as the layered structure of the stratum and the vertical flow of groundwater, the ground temperature may vary significantly. By setting the variogram parameters for the vertical and horizontal directions separately, the variation patterns of ground temperature in different directions can be more accurately reflected. These anisotropic variogram parameters are used to constrain the interpolation model, making the constructed geothermal grid model more consistent with actual geological conditions and improving the model's accuracy and reliability. A geothermal grid model is constructed based on the generated virtual geothermal points and the anisotropic interpolation constraints. The geothermal grid model divides the study area into a number of regular grid cells, each of which is assigned a geothermal value. These geothermal values are calculated using an interpolation algorithm based on surrounding virtual geothermal points and known geothermal well data. In this way, discrete geothermal data can be converted into a continuous geothermal distribution model, providing a more intuitive display of the geothermal distribution across the entire region.
[0092] Specifically, model rendering display: Based on the interpolation results, attribute intervals are assigned corresponding colors for graded coloring, and the shallow geothermal grid model is loaded and displayed, such as Figure 6 shown.
[0093] In practical applications, after assigning grid attributes, the grid is visualized to more intuitively display and analyze the distribution of shallow geothermal properties. For example, the grid is colored in a hierarchical manner based on the shallow geothermal attribute level of the grid, with different attribute value ranges divided into several levels and each level assigned a specific color. For example, areas with higher ground temperatures can be represented by red, areas with lower ground temperatures by blue, and different temperature ranges in between by transitional colors of varying shades. This embodiment uses this hierarchical coloring method to intuitively display the attribute information of the grid in the form of color. The grid model is then processed using the software's rendering function to give it a three-dimensional and realistic feel, ultimately displaying a visual evaluation grid model. By observing this model, one can quickly understand the distribution characteristics and variation patterns of the shallow geothermal attributes in the target area, providing an intuitive basis for decision-making in areas such as the development and utilization of shallow geothermal energy and geological engineering.
[0094] In one embodiment, the shallow geothermal property levels of the geothermal grid model are colored and rendered in different levels to obtain a visual geothermal grid model; a stepped temperature distribution profile and temperature contour lines are generated based on the geothermal grid model to demonstrate the stepped characteristics of the temperature distribution.
[0095] Specifically, if Figure 3 As shown, real-time analysis: Based on the constructed geothermal grid model, ZGIS software can quickly generate step temperature distribution profiles and temperature contour lines in real time, and visualize the results to show the step characteristics of temperature distribution, such as Figure 7 shown.
[0096] It should be noted that after the geothermal grid model is constructed, real-time analysis can be performed and the results can be presented in a visual manner. The visualization methods include stepped temperature distribution profiles and temperature contour maps. The stepped temperature distribution profile shows the changes in geothermal temperature at different depths underground along a specific direction (such as the profile line). The profile can clearly show the trend of geothermal changes with depth, as well as the differences in geothermal temperature between different strata, which helps to analyze the impact of geological structure on temperature distribution. Points with equal geothermal values are connected to form contour lines, and different geothermal intervals are represented by different colors or lines. The temperature contour map can intuitively display the geothermal distribution characteristics of the entire area, such as the distribution location and range of high-temperature and low-temperature zones, making it easy to quickly identify the spatial variation pattern of geothermal temperature.
[0097] The beneficial effects of the method described in this embodiment include: systematically solving the three core problems of data sparsity, model reliability and decision lag in shallow geothermal energy development through multi-source data fusion, virtual borehole generation and anisotropic modeling technology, and providing efficient and reliable technical support for resource exploration, urban planning and carbon neutrality goals.
