Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of canal engineering data processing technology or other related fields. Specifically, it relates to a method, apparatus, and electronic equipment for recommending route selection schemes for canal engineering projects. Background Technology
[0002] Route selection is the primary step in canal construction, and its rationality directly affects construction costs, construction difficulty, navigation capacity, water resource utilization efficiency, ecological and environmental impact, and regional economic development potential. Traditional canal route selection often relies on detailed topographic surveys, geological investigations, and environmental assessments, which are time-consuming and costly, especially for long-distance, large-scale projects.
[0003] Canal projects typically span hundreds of kilometers, with complex terrain, diverse geological conditions, and involve various ecological environments and sensitive areas along the route. In the early stages of the project, the reserve of basic data is insufficient, the coverage and accuracy of topographic surveys are inadequate, and the distribution of geological survey points is sparse, failing to fully reflect the geological conditions along the route. As a result, it is difficult to obtain sufficient information for scientific and reasonable canal route selection during the project planning stage.
[0004] Currently, relevant engineering design standards such as the "Design Code for Waterway Engineering" (JTS181-2016) provide basic principles for waterway engineering route selection. These principles include consideration of factors such as overall planning, natural conditions, ship traffic density, environmental protection requirements, engineering volume, maintenance costs, and ship navigation safety. They also address requirements related to waterway siltation, strong winds and waves, the angle between the main current direction and the waterway axis, waterway axis smoothness, and the layout of the waterway axis in shallow sections. However, these standards have limitations in application under long-distance, information-scarce conditions, relying primarily on existing data and experience, making it difficult to cope with complex and ever-changing natural and social environments.
[0005] Furthermore, traditional methods for geological stability assessment require detailed geological data, including extensive borehole data and geological profile analysis. However, accurately assessing geological stability in situations of data scarcity poses a significant challenge for long-distance canal route selection. Existing technologies for geological stability assessment are relatively simplistic and lack effective handling of uncertainties and ambiguities, thus limiting the accuracy and reliability of the assessment results.
[0006] For long-distance, large-scale canal projects, the topographic surveying area is extensive, and the geological exploration workload is enormous. The costs of preliminary surveying and exploration are prohibitive, and the construction period is unacceptable. Conducting topographic surveying and exploration work later, which is not considered a recommended route, would be a waste of resources.
[0007] There is currently no effective solution to the above problems. Summary of the Invention

[0028] In this disclosure, multi-source geographic information of the target area for the proposed canal project is fused, and a basic geographic information framework is constructed based on the fused information. The target area is divided into multiple sub-areas to be evaluated. Fuzzy logic rules are used to conduct geological stability assessments on different sub-areas to be evaluated, and unfavorable geological sections are marked based on the geological stability assessment results. According to the pre-planned set of canal route selection rules, historical case knowledge base, basic geographic information framework, river system transportation demand in the target area, and geological stability assessment results, N preliminary canal route schemes are proposed, where N is a positive integer greater than 1.

[0029] In this disclosure, by integrating multi-source geographic information to construct a basic geographic information framework, the limitations of a single data source can be overcome, providing more comprehensive and accurate topographic and geological information. This reduces the workload and cost of field surveys. In the geological condition assessment stage, a fuzzy inference system is used to handle uncertainties and incomplete information, assessing the geological stability of different regions and shifting the assessment of geological conditions from qualitative to quantitative, thereby reducing the intensity and cost of geological surveys. The canal route utilizes intelligent algorithms to establish a multi-objective optimization model, automatically adjusting the route plan to find the canal path with the best cost-effectiveness ratio. Based on historical data feedback, parameter adjustments and model optimizations are performed to improve accuracy and reliability, reducing errors and costs in planning. This solves the technical problems of high workload and high cost in the planning and route selection of long-distance canal projects due to the influence of topography and geology.

[0041] Three-dimensional geological modeling is a technique for constructing three-dimensional models of underground structures based on geological data. It can reveal complex geological structures and stratigraphic distributions, which is of great significance for engineering site selection, design, and construction. In the canal route selection of this invention, three-dimensional geological modeling is used to predict geological conditions and potential risks, helping engineers make more informed decisions.
[0042] Multi-objective optimization methods seek the optimal solution among multiple conflicting objective functions.

[0052] The present invention will now be described in detail with reference to various embodiments.
[0053] Example 1
[0054] According to an embodiment of the present invention, an embodiment of a method for recommending a route selection scheme for a canal project is provided. It should be noted that the steps shown in the flowchart in the accompanying drawings can be executed in a computer system such as a set of computer-executable instructions. Furthermore, although a logical order is shown in the flowchart, in some cases, the steps shown or described may be executed in a different order than that shown here.
[0055] Figure 1 This is a flowchart of a recommended method for an optional canal engineering route selection scheme according to an embodiment of the present invention, such as... Figure 1 As shown, the method includes the following steps S101 to S105, and each step is described in detail below.
[0056] Step S101: Multi-source geographic information of the target area for the proposed canal project site selection is fused, and a basic geographic information framework is constructed based on the multi-source fused information. The target area is divided into multiple sub-areas to be evaluated.
[0057] Optionally, step S101 includes: preprocessing the multi-source geographic information of the target area for the proposed canal project site selection, wherein the preprocessing strategy includes at least one of the following: coordinate system unification, projection method unification, data format standardization, and data cleaning. Data cleaning includes: removing redundant nodes in the topographic map, removing cloud mask areas in the remote sensing image, and correcting coordinate anomalies in the survey data; using optical stereo photogrammetry and radar interferometry strategies to obtain remote sensing images and topographic maps of the target area from multiple angles, and constructing a three-dimensional topographic model based on the remote sensing images of the target area; calculating transformation parameters using the least squares method; registering the remote sensing images and topographic maps using the transformation parameters based on pre-selected ground feature points; identifying the correlation between the registered remote sensing images and survey data using geospatial analysis tools; constructing a geospatial database model based on the correlation; integrating the topographic features of the target area, remote sensing image interpretation results, and survey data using the geospatial database model to obtain a multi-dimensional dataset; and constructing a basic geographic information framework based on the multi-dimensional dataset.
[0058] In step S101, the target area for the proposed canal project site selection is divided into multiple sub-areas to be evaluated to ensure the local accuracy and overall consistency of geographic information. Considering the diverse sources of geographic information and their differences in format, coordinate system, projection method, and data quality, preprocessing strategies become a prerequisite for multi-source information fusion. The preprocessing strategies in this embodiment cover at least one of the following: Coordinate System 1: Unifying all data sources into a consistent coordinate system to eliminate spatial benchmark differences and improve the accuracy of data overlay; Unified Projection Method: Ensuring the accuracy of data after projection conversion; Data Format Standardization: Unifying the storage and retrieval formats of data to facilitate data exchange and processing between different GIS software; Data Cleaning: Removing redundant nodes from topographic maps to reduce data redundancy and improve processing efficiency; Removing cloud mask areas from remote sensing images to avoid the influence of clouds on topographic measurements; Correcting coordinate outliers in survey data to ensure the accuracy of geographic positioning of the data.
[0059] Subsequently, this embodiment employs optical stereo photogrammetry and radar interferometry strategies to acquire remote sensing images and topographic maps of the target area from multiple angles, constructing a three-dimensional terrain model. The optical stereo photogrammetry strategy utilizes stereo images captured by satellite-borne optical cameras, calculating the three-dimensional coordinates of the ground based on the parallax principle. It is suitable for areas with significant terrain variations. Optical stereo photogrammetry technology uses satellite-borne optical cameras to capture multiple images of the same area from different angles (e.g., forward-looking, front-looking, and back-looking), calculating the three-dimensional coordinates of ground points through the parallax principle, similar to how the human eye perceives depth through binocular parallax. The "stereo image pairs" of satellite images can construct a three-dimensional terrain model. The baseline-to-height ratio (baseline length / satellite height) is considered; the larger the ratio, the higher the elevation accuracy. The radar interferometry strategy calculates surface elevation or deformation through the phase difference of microwave signals, acquiring terrain information even under vegetation cover or cloud cover conditions, with accuracy down to the centimeter level.
[0060] This embodiment further employs the Least Squares Method (LSM) to calculate transformation parameters, which ensure geometric consistency between the remote sensing image and the topographic map. Based on pre-selected feature points (such as road intersections and building corners), the transformation parameters calculated using LSM are used for precise registration of the remote sensing image and the topographic map, with the error controlled within 1 to 2 pixels, thereby establishing a direct spatial association between the remote sensing image and the topographic map.
[0061] Next, geospatial analysis tools are used to identify the relationships between the registered remote sensing images and exploration data, including attribute linking and profile and 3D terrain integration. Attribute linking associates exploration attributes such as borehole depth and lithology with spatial points through the ID field, forming a spatial dataset with attributes. Profile and 3D terrain integration uses borehole data to generate stratigraphic interfaces and combines the tonal differences of strata in remote sensing images to correct the interface morphology, ultimately forming a 3D geographic information framework that includes topographic relief and underground structure.
[0062] In the process of building a geospatial database model, this embodiment integrates the topographic features of the target area, remote sensing image interpretation results, and survey data to form a multi-dimensional dataset. It not only supports SQL queries and spatial statistics, but also stores and manages multi-source spatial data, enabling efficient data retrieval and application.
[0063] Optionally, the steps for constructing a basic geographic information framework based on a multi-dimensional dataset include: extracting geological boundaries from remote sensing image interpretation results, geological exploration points from exploration data, and profile lines from topographic features; generating stratigraphic interfaces based on profile lines and borehole data to construct a topographic surface model, and correcting the interface morphology of the topographic surface model by combining stratigraphic tonal differences in remote sensing images; constructing a geological body model based on geological boundaries and geological exploration points; and constructing a basic geographic information framework that includes topographic relief and underground structure based on the topographic surface model and the geological body model.
[0064] First, geological boundaries are identified from remote sensing image interpretation results, based on tonal differences or texture features of different rock and soil types in the images. Second, geological exploration points, such as borehole locations and depths, lithological information, etc., are extracted from exploration data, as well as profile lines in topographic elements, which are used to visually display the longitudinal or transverse morphological features of the earth's surface. Then, the two-dimensional geological information is converted into a three-dimensional model using borehole data and profile lines (for example, by using Kriging interpolation or triangular mesh modeling techniques to generate stratigraphic interfaces), which facilitates the understanding and analysis of deep geological structures. Finally, combined with topographic data, a topographic surface model is constructed using topographic surface modeling techniques to reflect the undulating features of the earth's surface.
[0065] Based on the differences in stratigraphic tones in remote sensing imagery, the stratigraphic boundaries in the topographic surface model are corrected. This correction takes into account supplementary information from the remote sensing data, which helps to more accurately depict the actual distribution of strata. Using extracted geological boundaries and geological survey points, a geological body model is constructed using geological modeling software. The model includes three-dimensional geometric information of underground structures such as rock strata and faults. Subsequently, the topographic surface model and the geological body model are integrated to create a three-dimensional geographic information framework that not only shows the morphology of the Earth's surface but also reveals the underground geological structure.
[0066] Step S102: Use fuzzy logic rules to perform geological stability assessments on different sub-regions to be assessed, and mark unfavorable geological sections based on the geological stability assessment results.
[0067] Optionally, the steps of using fuzzy logic rules to assess the geological stability of different sub-regions to be evaluated include: for each sub-region to be evaluated, determining a set of input variables related to geological stability, wherein the input variables include at least one of the following: rock type, seismic wave velocity, groundwater level, and soil moisture content; using membership functions to map the values of the input variables to their respective fuzzy sets; based on a pre-defined fuzzy rule base and combined with the fuzzy sets of the input variables, calculating the fuzzy output of the geological stability of each sub-region to be evaluated; and using a defuzzification strategy to convert the fuzzy output into a geological stability level.
[0068] For each sub-region to be evaluated, a set of input variables closely related to geological stability is defined. These variables may include rock type, seismic wave velocity, groundwater level, and soil moisture content. Each variable carries unique information about geological stability; for example, rock type can indicate the physical properties of the strata, while seismic wave velocity reflects the compactness of the subsurface structure. By establishing a membership function (MF), the precise values of the input variables are mapped to a series of fuzzy sets. For example, rock type can be divided into fuzzy sets of "very stable," "stable," "moderately stable," "unstable," and "very unstable," while soil moisture content can be defined as a fuzzy set of "low," "medium," and "high."
[0069] In this embodiment, a pre-defined Fuzzy Rule Base (FRB) is established, which contains fuzzy logic rules extracted from experts and historical cases. For example, "If the rock type is very stable and the seismic wave velocity is high, then the geological stability is very stable." These rules reflect the complex interactions between geological variables and the domain knowledge of their comprehensive impact on geological stability.
[0070] Based on fuzzy sets and fuzzy rule bases of input variables, a fuzzy output for the geological stability of each sub-region to be evaluated is calculated through a fuzzy logic inference mechanism, yielding the geological stability assessment results for each sub-region. Finally, a defuzzification strategy is employed to convert the calculated fuzzy output into clear geological stability levels, such as "extremely stable," "stable," "moderate," "unstable," and "extremely unstable." Commonly used defuzzification methods may include the centroid method or the maximum membership method, ensuring that the assessment results reflect both the uncertainty of geological conditions and are easy for decision-makers to understand and apply.
[0071] Step S103: Based on the pre-planned set of canal route selection rules, historical case knowledge base, basic geographic information framework, river system transportation demand in the target area, and geological stability assessment results, N canal route schemes are initially proposed, where N is a positive integer greater than 1.
[0072] Optionally, step S103 includes: generating preliminary route selection guidelines based on the canal route selection rule set, combined with the geographical conditions and environmental protection requirements of the target area; using a historical case knowledge base, identifying successful route selection patterns of historical canal projects under similar conditions to the target area through case reasoning; conducting multi-source data analysis based on the basic geographic information framework and geological stability assessment results to identify potential risk points and adjustment space of the canal route; extracting historical freight volume data, shipping demand, water resource allocation targets, and existing transportation network correlation information from river system transportation demand to determine the transportation demand priority of the canal route; and using a heuristic search algorithm to initially formulate N canal route schemes based on the route selection guidelines, successful route selection patterns of historical canal projects, potential risk points of the canal route, adjustment space, and transportation demand priority.
[0073] First, this embodiment, based on the "Code for Design of Waterway Engineering" (JTS181-2016) and engineering practice experience, combined with the specific geographical conditions of the target area (such as topographic relief and water system distribution) and environmental protection requirements (such as the protection of ecologically sensitive areas and basic farmland), generates route selection guidelines to ensure that the canal route design makes full use of natural topography and hydraulic conditions while minimizing environmental impact. Then, using a historical case knowledge base and case-based reasoning techniques, it identifies successful route selection patterns from previous canal projects with similar natural and socio-economic conditions to the target area.
[0074] Based on the constructed basic geographic information framework and geological stability assessment results, spatial analysis of multi-source data was conducted to identify potential geological risk points (such as landslides and karst areas) and their adjustment space along the canal route. The analysis comprehensively considered multiple dimensions such as topography, geological structure, hydrological conditions, and ecological environment to ensure the comprehensiveness and robustness of the route selection scheme.
[0075] In addition, this embodiment starts from the transportation demand of the river system in the target area, extracts historical freight volume data, analyzes the seasonal changes in shipping demand, cargo types, transportation frequency, etc., and at the same time considers water resource allocation targets (such as irrigation and urban water supply) and the utilization efficiency of the existing transportation network to determine the priority of transportation demand for the canal route.
[0076] Based on the above analysis, heuristic search algorithms such as Genetic Algorithm (GA) and Ant Colony Optimization (ACO) are used to initially propose canal routes. These algorithms continuously explore and optimize route options by simulating natural selection or ant colony behavior. This ensures that, considering route selection guidelines, historical patterns, risk points, and transportation demand priorities, the initially proposed N canal routes meet engineering objectives while minimizing adverse environmental impacts.
[0077] Optionally, the construction of the historical case knowledge base includes: obtaining a set of completed historical canal engineering cases; extracting key information from the case documents and remote sensing images of each historical canal engineering case using text mining and image recognition strategies to obtain a set of key information, wherein the key information includes at least one of the following: terrain features, geological conditions, route selection scheme, engineering volume, construction difficulties, and environmental factors; and integrating the extracted set of key information into the knowledge base using a case reasoning framework to obtain the historical case knowledge base.
[0078] This study collects a set of completed historical canal engineering case studies, focusing on gathering documents such as survey reports, design documents, construction summaries, and environmental impact assessment reports, as well as relevant remote sensing imagery and topographic mapping data. Using text mining and image recognition strategies, key information is automatically extracted from the case study documents and remote sensing images. Text mining utilizes natural language processing to identify keywords or phrases such as topographic features, geological conditions, and engineering quantities, while image recognition uses deep learning models to identify specific features such as river course, topography, and ecological protection zones. The extracted key information is integrated into a case study reasoning framework, forming part of a knowledge base. By comparing the similarities between current project requirements and historical cases, this knowledge base assists the decision-making process and reduces redundant research and trial-and-error costs. The key information for each case study is organized into structured entries for easy searching and citation, while also providing rich example resources for subsequent intelligent decision-making.
[0079] Specifically, when selecting cases, the selection principles may include: representativeness, that is, covering different geographical environments (plains, mountains, river deltas), climate zones (humid zones, arid zones), and project scale (large, medium, and small); and completeness, that is, the cases should include the background of the route selection (such as shipping demand and water resource allocation objectives), technical parameters (such as route length, drop, and canal bottom width), key influencing factors (such as geological disaster risks and the distribution of ecological protection zones), and implementation effects (such as construction period, cost, and operational benefits).
[0080] Step S104: Identify the matching relationship between each initially proposed canal route and the set of natural resource constraints, and adjust the constraints in the canal route.
[0081] Optionally, the step of identifying the matching relationship between each initially proposed canal route and the set of natural resource constraints, and adjusting the canal route, includes: digitizing each initially proposed canal route and storing it in a geographic information system (GIS) format; using the spatial analysis function of the GIS to identify conflict points between the canal route and the set of natural resource constraints; analyzing the identified conflict points, assessing the impact of the conflict points on the canal engineering corresponding to the canal route, and obtaining the assessment results; and adjusting the canal route based on the assessment results.
[0082] First, each initially proposed canal route is converted into digital form and stored in a GIS-compatible format. Then, using the spatial analysis capabilities of GIS, this embodiment identifies conflict points between the canal route proposals and a set of natural resource constraints. These constraints cover ecologically sensitive areas (such as wetland parks and nature reserves), basic farmland, mineral resource distribution areas, and cultural relic protection areas. Through spatial overlay analysis, the overlapping or near-overlapping areas between the canal route and these constraints—i.e., conflict points—can be clearly displayed.
[0083] It should be noted that for each identified conflict point, this embodiment assesses the impact factors of these conflict points on the canal project, including but not limited to: the potential degree of damage to the ecological environment, the amount of arable land occupied, the interference with mineral resource extraction, and the protection requirements for cultural relics and heritage. Finally, based on the assessment results, this embodiment adjusts the canal route plan to reduce or avoid conflicts with natural resource constraints. Adjustment strategies may include: bypassing ecologically sensitive areas, adjusting the route to reduce the occupation of basic farmland, optimizing the path to avoid mineral resource overlay, and designing special protection measures to take into account cultural relics and historical sites.
[0084] In this embodiment, GIS is not only used to store and manage canal route plans, but also serves as a core spatial analysis tool for identifying conflict points, providing a wealth of spatial analysis modules. Matching the canal route plan with natural resource constraints is a dynamic process; as the project progresses, new constraints may emerge. This embodiment continuously and dynamically adjusts the plan to ensure that the design always matches the latest constraints.
[0085] Step S105: Use a multi-objective optimization model to compare and select the multiple canal route schemes that have been adjusted, and determine the recommended canal route scheme.
[0086] Optionally, step S105 includes: obtaining the objective index function of the multi-objective optimization model and defining the constraints in the multi-objective optimization model; inputting the parameters of each canal route scheme into the multi-objective optimization model, running the multi-objective optimization algorithm by the multi-objective optimization model, iteratively optimizing different canal route schemes, and selecting the canal route scheme with the highest comprehensive evaluation score as the recommended canal route scheme.
[0087] The objective indicator function can include key performance indicators of canal projects, such as minimizing project costs, minimizing environmental impact, and maximizing transportation efficiency. Specifically, the objective of minimizing project costs can focus on the calculation of earthwork volume, concrete and steel usage, and the market prices of these materials; the objective of minimizing environmental impact can consider the length of the crossing of ecologically sensitive areas, the area of basic farmland occupied, and the degree of impact on specific environmental factors (such as water quality and soil); and the objective of maximizing transportation efficiency can focus on the matching degree between the designed navigation capacity and the actual freight volume.
[0088] Setting constraints is crucial to ensuring the feasibility of the optimization process. Constraints may include, but are not limited to: the turning radius of the waterway must exceed a specific threshold to ensure the safe passage of ships; active faults or high-risk earthquake zones must be avoided to ensure engineering safety; and the canal route design must meet ecological protection requirements, such as minimizing interference with drinking water sources.
[0089] Detailed parameters of each canal route scheme, such as route length, rivers along the route, number of ecologically sensitive areas to be traversed, and estimated engineering costs, are input into a multi-objective optimization model. The model will run multi-objective optimization algorithms, such as non-dominated sorting genetic algorithms or particle swarm optimization, to iteratively optimize different canal route schemes. By evaluating the performance of each scheme on the objective index function, the optimal solution or solution set that can balance engineering, environmental, and socio-economic benefits is identified.
[0090] Through the above steps, multi-source geographic information of the target area for the proposed canal project can be fused, and a basic geographic information framework can be constructed based on the fused information. The target area is divided into multiple sub-areas to be evaluated. Fuzzy logic rules are used to conduct geological stability assessments on different sub-areas to be evaluated, and unfavorable geological sections are marked based on the geological stability assessment results. According to the pre-planned set of canal route selection rules, historical case knowledge base, basic geographic information framework, river system transportation demand in the target area, and geological stability assessment results, N preliminary canal route schemes are proposed, where N is a positive integer greater than 1. The matching relationship between each preliminary proposed canal route scheme and the set of natural resource constraints is identified, and the constraints in the canal route are adjusted. A multi-objective optimization model is used to compare and select the multiple adjusted canal route schemes to determine the recommended canal route scheme. In this embodiment, by fusing multi-source geographic information to construct a basic geographic information framework, the limitations of a single data source can be overcome, providing more comprehensive and accurate topographic and geological information. This reduces the workload and cost of on-site investigation. In the geological condition assessment stage, a fuzzy inference system is used to handle uncertainties and incomplete information, assessing the geological stability of different regions and shifting the assessment of geological conditions from qualitative to quantitative, thereby reducing the intensity and cost of geological exploration. The canal route utilizes intelligent algorithms to establish a multi-objective optimization model, automatically adjusting the route plan to find the canal path with the best cost-effectiveness ratio. Based on historical data feedback, parameter adjustments and model optimizations are performed to improve accuracy and reliability, reducing errors and costs in planning. This solves the technical problems of high workload and high cost in the planning and route selection of long-distance canal projects due to the influence of topography and geology.
[0091] The following describes in detail another optional implementation method.
[0092] This implementation method uses the Xiang-Gui Canal connection project as an example to illustrate the canal selection method, which is characterized by multi-source data fusion technology, fuzzy and uncertainty processing technology, experience and knowledge case base, and major avoidance factors, which significantly reduces the cost of preliminary work and shortens the preliminary work cycle.
[0093] In a first aspect, this invention proposes a method for route selection in canal engineering under conditions of limited information over long distances, comprising the following steps:
[0094] S1: Collect topographic mapping and survey data, and combine them with satellite remote sensing imagery to establish a basic geographic information framework. Collect topographic and geological data on roads and bridges within the project area, combine low-precision topographic data with satellite remote sensing imagery, and initially outline the topographic relief and water system distribution to provide a basic geographic information framework for canal route selection. At the same time, identify the distribution locations of important mineral resources and industrial parks.
[0095] S2: Drawing on the route selection experience of other canal projects under similar geological and topographical conditions, formulate canal route selection principles and establish a knowledge base based on case-based reasoning. The canal route selection principles include: first, fully utilizing topography and river conditions to achieve a relatively straight route and minimize engineering investment; second, maximizing hinterland transport capacity and maximizing its driving effect on economic and social development; third, minimizing the difficulty of water supply for navigation and ensuring good comprehensive utilization of water resources; fourth, facilitating environmental protection and reducing the impact on the ecological environment along the route; and fifth, appropriately considering the development of resources along the route.
[0096] S3: Perform fuzzy evaluation of geological stability and identify unfavorable geological sections. With only a limited amount of borehole data, a fuzzy inference system is used to perform fuzzy evaluation of the geological stability of different areas, dividing them into relatively stable, less unstable, and other fuzzy regions, providing a basis for route selection to avoid unfavorable geological sections.
[0097] It should be noted that a fuzzy inference system may include input variables, output variables, fuzzy sets, fuzzy rules, fuzzy inference mechanisms, defuzzification, system evaluation and optimization, etc. The following is an illustrative explanation of each part.
[0098] (1) Determine the input variables: Select physical and mechanical parameters related to the stratigraphic distribution and lithology as input variables, such as the elevation, unit weight, cohesion, friction angle, groundwater level, peak ground acceleration, etc. of each soil layer. These variables can be obtained using existing borehole data, remote sensing data, or through supplementary geological exploration.
[0099] (2) Determine the output variables: Divide them into stability levels such as extremely stable (0.8-1.0), stable (0.6-0.8), moderate (0.4-0.6), unstable (0.2-0.4), and extremely unstable (0-0.2), and output a risk zoning map in combination with GIS visualization.
[0100] (3) Define fuzzy sets.
[0101] For each input and output variable, several fuzzy sets are defined based on their value range and actual geological significance. For example, for rock types, fuzzy sets such as "sandstone," "shale," and "limestone" can be defined; for soil layers, fuzzy sets such as "silt," "clay," "silty clay," and "sand" can be defined. Each fuzzy set is described by a membership function, which maps the variable's value to a membership degree between 0 and 1, indicating the degree to which the value belongs to the fuzzy set. For example, the elevation of a soil layer can be determined by inference from nearby boreholes. Cohesion and friction angle can be determined by difference from nearby boreholes.
[0102] (4) Establish fuzzy rules.
[0103] A fuzzy rule base is established, where the premise of each rule is a fuzzy set combination of input variables, and the conclusion is a fuzzy set of output variables. The number and complexity of the rules depend on the complexity of the geological conditions and the available knowledge. For example, "If the rock type is sandstone and the seismic wave velocity is high, then the strata are likely shallow, dense sandstone strata." "If the rock type is limestone and the seismic wave velocity varies greatly, then the strata may contain karst caves or geological fracture zones." "If the soil type is cohesive soil and the seismic wave velocity is low, then the strata may contain silt."
[0104] (5) Design a fuzzy reasoning mechanism.
[0105] Taking the Mamdani reasoning method as an example, its process includes the following steps:
[0106] 1) Fuzzification: The precise value of the input variable is converted into the membership degree of the corresponding fuzzy set according to its membership function.
[0107] 2) Rule matching: Match the fuzzy input with the rules in the rule base to find all rules that meet the preconditions.
[0108] 3) Inference Calculation: For each matching rule, the membership degree of the conclusion part is calculated based on the membership degree of its premise part. Methods such as taking the minimum value or multiplication are commonly used to determine the membership degree of the conclusion.
[0109] 4) Fuzzy Synthesis: The conclusions of all matching rules are synthesized to obtain the final fuzzy output. Methods such as taking the average value can be used for synthesis.
[0110] (6) Defuzzification.
[0111] The fuzzy output obtained through fuzzy inference needs to be converted into a precise value. Common defuzzification methods include the centroid method and the maximum membership method. For example, the centroid method obtains the precise value by calculating the centroid of the fuzzy output set, while the maximum membership method selects the element with the largest membership degree as the precise value.
[0112] (7) System evaluation and optimization.
[0113] The constructed fuzzy inference system is tested and evaluated using known geological data. The system's prediction accuracy, recall, and other indicators are calculated. If the system's performance does not meet the requirements, adjustments and optimizations can be made to the fuzzy set partitioning, the shape of the membership function, and the rules in the rule base to improve the system's accuracy and reliability.
[0114] When constructing a fuzzy inference system for stratigraphic distribution, it is necessary to fully integrate geological expertise and actual data, and continuously adjust and improve each part of the system so that it can accurately reflect the laws and characteristics of stratigraphic distribution.
[0115] S4: Based on the principles of proximity to river systems, high demand for cargo transportation, and avoidance of unfavorable geological sections, several canal routes are initially proposed. Proximity to river systems means shorter canal excavation distances and less workload.
[0116] Table 1 below illustrates the four proposed initial canal routes and the connecting lines between them.
[0117] Table 1. Description of the Canal Route
[0118]
[0119]
[0120] S5: Identify the relationship between the canal route and constraints such as high-speed rail bridges, railway bridges, ecological protection areas, cultural relics, and mineral resources.
[0121] Table 2 below illustrates the relationship between the proposed canal route and the main limiting factors of the ecological environment.
[0122] Table 2. Relationship between canal routes and major ecological and environmental limiting factors.
[0123]
[0124] S6: Conduct comparative analysis of avoidance and unavoidable options, and propose an optimized route selection scheme.
[0125] For each factor identified by S5, alternative schemes are compared and evaluated. For sensitive points that can be avoided, conflict points are avoided during canal route selection, optimizing the canal route, reducing the difficulty of project implementation, and saving project investment. For unavoidable conflict points, unavoidable alternative schemes are evaluated, and the project investment for the conflict points is determined.
[0126] S7: Compare and select from the initial proposed route options to preliminarily determine the recommended route. List the advantages and disadvantages of each route, and use an intelligent algorithm for canal route optimization. Combine the canal route optimization constraints and objective function to conduct qualitative and quantitative comparisons and determine the recommended route for the canal project.
[0127] For example, among the four routes illustrated above, Route 1 has fewer tiers, a relatively low elevation in the mountain-crossing section, and a shorter length (28km, of which 16km is a dry, excavated section); the navigation time across the canal is relatively short, resulting in higher operational efficiency; the mountain-crossing section can be replenished by gravity flow; it does not involve the reconstruction of high-speed railway bridges; there are no catastrophic factors affecting the ecologically sensitive targets involved; the investment amount is relatively small; the difficulty of land acquisition, demolition, and reconstruction is moderate; and it has good planning compliance. Based on a comprehensive comparison, Route 1 is the recommended option.
[0128] The optimization objective functions include functions for minimizing engineering costs, minimizing environmental impact, and maximizing transportation efficiency.
[0129] In the context of large-span, limited information, comprehensive and detailed data collection is costly and time-consuming. This embodiment addresses the problems of long distances and limited basic data reserves in canal connection projects such as the Xiang-Gui Canal. It proposes a canal route selection method characterized by multi-source data fusion technology, fuzzy and uncertainty processing technology, experience and knowledge case library, and major avoidance factors, which significantly reduces the cost and shortens the preliminary work cycle.
[0130] The following is a detailed description with reference to another embodiment.
[0131] Example 2
[0132] The device for recommending a canal engineering route selection scheme provided in this embodiment includes multiple implementation units, each of which corresponds to a specific implementation step in Embodiment 1 above.
[0133] Figure 2 This is a schematic diagram of a recommended device for an optional canal engineering route selection scheme according to an embodiment of the present invention, as shown below. Figure 2 As shown, the recommended device for the canal project route selection scheme may include: an information fusion unit 21, a geological stability assessment unit 22, a route planning unit 23, a constraint adjustment unit 24, and a recommended route determination unit 25.
[0134] Among them, the information fusion unit 21 is used to fuse multi-source geographic information of the target area for the proposed canal project site selection, and to construct a basic geographic information framework based on the multi-source fused information, wherein the target area is divided into multiple sub-areas to be evaluated.

[0137] The constraint adjustment unit 24 is used to identify the matching relationship between each initially proposed canal route scheme and the set of natural resource constraints, and to adjust the constraints in the canal route.
[0138] The recommended route determination unit 25 is used to compare and select multiple canal route schemes that have been adjusted using a multi-objective optimization model, and determine the recommended canal route scheme.
[0139] The aforementioned device for recommending canal route selection schemes can fuse multi-source geographic information of the target area for the proposed canal project site selection through information fusion unit 21, construct a basic geographic information framework based on the multi-source fused information, wherein the target area is divided into multiple sub-areas to be evaluated, and the geological stability assessment unit 22 uses fuzzy logic rules to conduct geological stability assessments on different sub-areas to be evaluated, and marks unfavorable geological sections based on the geological stability assessment results, and the route formulation unit 23 preliminarily formulates N canal route schemes based on the pre-formulated canal route selection rule set, historical case knowledge base, basic geographic information framework, river system transportation demand in the target area, and geological stability assessment results, wherein N is a positive integer greater than 1, and the constraint condition adjustment unit 24 identifies the matching relationship between each preliminarily formulated canal route scheme and the natural resource constraint condition set, and adjusts the constraints in the canal route, and the recommended route determination unit 25 uses a multi-objective optimization model to compare and select the multiple adjusted canal route schemes to determine the recommended canal route scheme.
[0140] In this embodiment, by fusing multi-source geographic information to construct a basic geographic information framework, the limitations of a single data source can be overcome, providing more comprehensive and accurate topographic and geological information. This reduces the workload and cost of on-site investigation. In the geological condition assessment stage, a fuzzy inference system is used to handle uncertainties and incomplete information, assessing the geological stability of different regions and shifting the assessment of geological conditions from qualitative to quantitative, thereby reducing the intensity and cost of geological exploration. The canal route utilizes intelligent algorithms to establish a multi-objective optimization model, automatically adjusting the route plan to find the canal path with the best cost-effectiveness ratio. Based on historical data feedback, parameter adjustments and model optimizations are performed to improve accuracy and reliability, reducing errors and costs in planning.
