Description
Technical Field

[0002] Water body extraction is a key technology in water resource management, flood monitoring, and ecological environmental protection. Its core objective is to accurately identify the spatial distribution of surface water bodies through remote sensing. With the development of remote sensing technology, multi-source remote sensing data, such as optical, synthetic aperture radar, and digital elevation model (DEM) data, provides rich information dimensions for water body extraction. The spectral characteristics of optical remote sensing data can effectively distinguish water bodies from vegetation, synthetic aperture radar data has all-weather imaging capabilities and can penetrate clouds and fog to obtain water body information, while DEM can reflect the impact of topographic relief on water body distribution. Currently, existing water body extraction methods are mainly based on single optical or radar data, which are easily affected by cloud cover, wind and wave interference, or topographic shadows, leading to missed or incorrect extractions. In addition, existing technologies lack mixed pixel processing, and mixed pixels in medium and low resolution images are not effectively decomposed, resulting in blurred and fragmented water body boundaries.

[0057] Example 1
[0058] The implementation method in this embodiment can be implemented in a system, on a server, or on a terminal; no specific limitation is made. The following section will describe the adaptive water extraction method based on multi-source remote sensing data fusion in this application from the perspective of system implementation. Please refer to... Figure 1 The method provided in this application includes the following steps:
[0059] S11. Acquire optical remote sensing image data, synthetic aperture radar image data, and digital elevation model data of the target area;
[0060] In this embodiment, all acquired data must cover the same geographical area and have similar imaging time windows to avoid feature distortion due to environmental changes. The spatial resolution difference between optical and synthetic aperture radar (SAR) image data must be less than 5 times; for example, 10m optical data should be matched with ≤50m SAR image data, and the resolution of digital elevation model (DEM) data should not be lower than that of optical data.
[0061] First, after acquiring the raw optical remote sensing image of the target area, the apparent reflectance is converted to surface reflectance using an atmospheric correction module to eliminate the effects of atmospheric scattering and water vapor absorption. Second, a cloud mask is generated using quality assessment bands to remove contaminated areas with cloud cover >10%. Geometric precision correction is performed using ground control points to ensure a positioning error <0.5 pixels. Reflectance data are extracted from the blue band (B2: 490nm), green band (B3: 560nm), and shortwave infrared band (B11: 1610nm) and resampled to a uniform spatial resolution. This yields preprocessed optical data: a surface reflectance image with controllable cloud cover and accurate radiation.
[0062] After acquiring the raw synthetic aperture radar (SAR) image data, the digital values were converted into backscattering coefficients through radiometric calibration to establish a quantitative relationship with the physical properties of ground features. Next, a Refined Lee filter (5×5 window) was used to suppress speckle noise and increase the equivalent number of views (ENL) to ≥4.0. Terrain correction was performed based on a digital elevation model and a Range-Doppler model to eliminate overlay and shadow distortion. Finally, the image data was spatially aligned with the optical image using mutual information registration, resampled to the same coordinate system and resolution, and the backscattering intensity and texture features of the VV polarization channel were extracted. The resulting preprocessed SAR image data is a backscattering coefficient image with accurate radiometric calibration and eliminated terrain distortion.
[0063] Raw digital elevation model (DEM) data is acquired, and an irregular triangular mesh (ITM) interpolation algorithm is used to fill data gaps, ensuring full coverage of elevation values. Slope maps are calculated based on the D8 algorithm to eliminate local terrain anomalies, with a threshold of slope > 80° considered anomaly. Finally, georegistration is performed using optical imagery as a reference, and bilinear interpolation is used to resample to the same spatial resolution as the optical data, generating a continuous terrain slope field. The resulting preprocessed DEM data is a seamlessly stitched, reliable slope raster map.
[0064] All three types of data have been spatiotemporally registered, forming a standardized dataset with spatial overlay and radial matching, which can be directly used for multi-source feature fusion.
[0065] S12. An improved water index is constructed based on optical remote sensing image data to enhance the spectral separation between deep and shallow water areas;
[0066] This step involves constructing a nonlinearly enhanced improved water index. While preserving the commonalities of water spectral characteristics, it amplifies the reflectance difference gradient between deep and shallow water areas, while forcibly suppressing the response of non-water pixels. This improves the integrity and anti-interference capability of water boundary extraction. The specific implementation process is as follows:
[0067] 1. Extract the blue-green band reflectance and short-wave infrared band reflectance from optical remote sensing image data;
[0068] 2. Calculate the standardized difference between the reflectance of the blue-green band and the reflectance of the short-wave infrared band.
[0069] The surface reflectance in the blue-green band and shortwave infrared band is extracted from the preprocessed optical image and denoted as ρ. bg and ρ swir ; Calculate the standardized outliers between bands: Theoretically, this value ranges from [-1, 1], and the water body is affected by ρ. bg >ρ swir It shows a positive value, but the difference between shallow and deep water areas is insufficient. Typical values are: 0.1-0.3 for shallow water vs. 0.4-0.6 for deep water. S123. An improved water index is generated by enhancing the reflectance difference gradient between deep and shallow water areas through a preset nonlinear transformation function.
[0070] The preset nonlinear transformation functions include:
[0071] 1. When the reflectivity of the blue-green band is higher than that of the short-wave infrared band, the output value increases exponentially with the increase of the reflectivity difference;
[0072] 2. When the reflectivity of the blue-green band is lower than that of the short-wave infrared band, the output value is set to zero to suppress non-aquatic interference.
[0073] Specifically, piecewise functions enhance spectral separation: Where α = 5.0, controlling the exponential growth rate and expanding the deep / shallow water gradient; k = 100, the normalization coefficient, making the output value range [0, 100]. When ρ bg >ρ swir At that time, exponential growth causes a sharp increase in the MWI value in deep water and a slow increase in shallow water, thus improving spectral separation; when ρ bg ≤ρ swir At that time, a forced reset to zero is used to eliminate erroneous responses.
[0074] S13. Construct a set of scattering feature distinction rules based on synthetic aperture radar image data to separate water bodies from typical interfering ground features;
[0075] This step, by coupling physical scattering mechanisms with texture statistical properties, utilizes the inherent physical differences between water specular reflection, building angular reflection, and terrain shadows; it eliminates false detections of buildings in urban areas and false detections of shadows in mountainous areas; and ensures that low-feature characteristics of shallow and turbid water bodies are not filtered out by rules. Please refer to [link to relevant documentation]. Figure 2 The specific implementation process is as follows:
[0076] S131. Extract backscattering intensity and texture features from synthetic aperture radar image data;
[0077] S132. Based on the specular reflection characteristics of water bodies, a backscattering intensity threshold is set to screen potential water body areas;
[0078] S133. Establish texture feature discrimination rules based on the scattering characteristics of typical interfering ground objects to eliminate interference from building and terrain shadows;
[0079] S134. Fuse the backscattering intensity threshold with the texture feature discrimination rule to generate a scattering feature discrimination rule set.
[0080] Among them, the setting of the backscatter intensity threshold satisfies the following: when the backscatter intensity of a pixel is lower than the preset threshold, it is determined to be a candidate area of water body; the texture feature discrimination rule includes: calculating the homogeneity index of the gray-level co-occurrence matrix in the neighborhood of the pixel, and when the homogeneity index is higher than the preset threshold, it is determined to be building interference and removed.
[0081] Specifically, the backscattering coefficient of the VV polarization channel is first extracted. Water exhibits extremely low values due to ingress surface reflection (typical range: -22 to -15 dB), while buildings show >-10 dB due to angular reflection effects. The homogeneity of the 5×5 window is then calculated based on the gray-level co-occurrence matrix. Where i and j are the gray values of two adjacent pixels in the image, P(i,j) is the probability value of position (i,j) in the gray-level co-occurrence matrix, representing the frequency of a pair of pixels with gray values i and j appearing together in a specific direction and at a specific distance, and N is the total number of gray levels in the image; if the pixel pair is concentrated on the diagonal (i≈j), then |i―j| approaches 0, the denominator 1+|i―j|≈1, and the homogeneity value is high, such as the uniform area of water / shadow. It should be noted that microwave specular reflection in water bodies (Hom≈0.4~0.6) results in weak grayscale fluctuations, with P(i,j) concentrated near the diagonal, but slightly diffused due to noise. The regular structure of buildings (Hom<0.35) causes grayscale jumps, with P(i,j) dispersed and |i―j| relatively large. In the terrain shadow (Hom>0.85), the grayscale is highly consistent in the no-echo area, with P(i,j) almost entirely located on the diagonal i=j. This formula, by quantifying local texture characteristics, becomes the core criterion for distinguishing "low backscattering intensity interference objects" by the regular concentration of scattering features.
[0082] S14. Generate terrain slope constraints based on digital elevation model data;
[0083] This step utilizes the physical topographical laws governing the distribution of natural water bodies—that water flows to low-lying areas under gravity and cannot exist stably on steep slopes—to construct topographic slope constraints. This eliminates the possibility of false detections in areas with slopes greater than 20°, thus preserving the true water body areas. Please refer to [link / reference]. Figure 3 The specific implementation process is as follows:
[0084] S141. Calculate the slope value of the digital elevation model data;
[0085] S142. Set the slope threshold according to the topographical laws of natural water body distribution;
[0086] S143. Mark areas with slope values greater than the slope threshold as areas where water cannot exist, and generate a terrain slope mask;
[0087] S144. Construct terrain slope constraints based on terrain slope mask.
[0088] Specifically, the slope value θ of each pixel is calculated using the eight-direction steepest slope method based on the preprocessed digital elevation model data: in and The elevation change rate in the x / y directions is calculated using a 3x3 Sobel convolution kernel. Secondly, a global slope threshold T is set based on hydrogeomorphological statistical laws. slope =20°; where the maximum stable slope of natural still water bodies (lakes, reservoirs) is ≤15°; the maximum existing slope of flowing water bodies (rivers) in mountainous areas is ≤20°; the slope calculation deviation caused by vertical error in digital elevation model data is ≤±3°. Threshold formula: T slope =15°+Δ error =20°; Regions with slope values θ > 20° are marked as areas where water cannot exist, generating a binary terrain slope mask M. slope : Finally, the slope mask is integrated as a Boolean condition into the multi-source fusion rule to form the terrain slope constraint condition.
[0089] S15. Generate a multi-source feature fusion dataset based on the improved water index, scattering feature distinction rule set, and terrain slope constraint.
[0090] Specifically, based on an improved water body index, a scattering feature discrimination rule set, and terrain slope constraints, a fused dataset is constructed through spatial logical operations and feature layer stacking. The optical feature layer normalizes the improved water body index to continuous feature values from 0 to 100; the scattering feature layer binarizes the scattering rule set output; and the terrain constraint layer directly uses a slope mask to determine the presence of water bodies. Finally, a raster dataset with consistent spatial resolution and pixel values ranging from [0, 100] is output, where higher values indicate a greater probability of water bodies.
[0091] S16. The multi-source feature fusion dataset is dynamically segmented using an adaptive threshold segmentation algorithm to obtain the initial water body extraction results;
[0092] This step improves the accuracy of initial water body extraction by using dynamic thresholds driven by geomorphic unit zoning and statistical distribution. Please refer to [link / reference]. Figure 4 The specific implementation process is as follows:
[0093] S161. Divide the target area into multiple geomorphic units; calculate the statistical distribution of water feature values in the multi-source feature fusion dataset of each geomorphic unit;
[0094] S162. Determine the segmentation threshold for each landform unit based on the statistical distribution.
[0095] 1. Identify the histogram distribution patterns of water body characteristic values within each topographic unit;
[0096] 2. When the histogram shows a bimodal distribution, the feature value corresponding to the trough position is used as the initial segmentation threshold;
[0097] 3. The initial segmentation threshold is dynamically adjusted based on the topographic complexity of each landform unit.
[0098] Specifically, based on the principle of consistent landform, the target area is divided into 500m x 500m grid cells, and histogram statistics are performed on the fused dataset within each cell. The frequency distribution of all pixel feature values within the cell is calculated based on topographic relief and land cover type, generating a probability density histogram. A segmentation threshold is adaptively set based on the histogram shape; when the histogram shows a clear bimodal distribution, the trough position V is selected. trongh Set as the initial threshold T base If it is a unimodal distribution, then follow T. base =μ + σ, where μ is the mean and σ is the standard deviation; based on the terrain correction coefficient β = 1 + 0.05 × Ruggedness, the terrain undulation degree Ruggedness = standard deviation of slope within the unit, and the final threshold: T final =T base ×β; Finally, perform segmentation: pixel value ≥ T final Marked as a water body; pixel value <T final , marked as non-water bodies.
[0099] S17. Perform hybrid pixel decomposition and morphological boundary optimization on the initial water extraction results to generate optimized water extraction results and output the final water spatial distribution map of the water extraction results.
[0100] This step separates mixed pixels using spectral decomposition technology and combines morphological operations to optimize the boundary topology, improving the integrity of small water bodies while ensuring boundary smoothness. Please refer to [link to relevant documentation]. Figure 5 The implementation process is as follows:
[0101] S171. Based on optical remote sensing image data, the water abundance of each pixel in the initial water body extraction result is calculated using a linear spectral decomposition model;
[0102] S172. Mark the pixels with water abundance greater than or equal to the preset abundance threshold as water pixels;
[0103] S173. Perform morphological closing operations on the marked water pixels to fill the holes inside the water area;
[0104] S174. Perform morphological opening operation on the result after morphological closing operation to eliminate small noise points and generate optimized water extraction results.
[0105] Specifically, based on the band reflectance of optical images, the water abundance A of each pixel is calculated using a linear spectral decomposition model (LSMM). w : (λ = blue, green, red, near-infrared) Extracting pure water end-members from deep water areas Background soil end-members were selected from adjacent bare soil areas. Least squares fitting A w ∈[0,1](A w =1 represents pure water). Let A be an example. w ≥0.8 is the threshold for water body identification; when A w At a value ≥0.8, the pixel spectral characteristics are dominated by water bodies, preserving fragmented water bodies while suppressing false detections of soil moisture. A morphological closing operation of 3×3 structuring elements is performed on the binary water body map: Closing operation = dilation·erosion (dilation first, then erosion), filling internal holes ≤3 pixel widths and connecting water body fractures ≤2 pixel spacing; a morphological opening operation of 3×3 structuring elements is performed: Opening operation = erosion·dilation (erosion first, then dilation), eliminating small isolated points (such as false detection ripples caused by wind and waves) and smoothing jagged boundaries (such as irregular burrs on lake shores), ultimately outputting a water body spatial distribution map with a well-structured topology.
[0106] The above embodiments achieve complementary advantages and synergistic enhancement of multi-source remote sensing information, including spectral features, radar scattering features, and topographic features. This improves the accuracy of water body extraction, particularly its adaptability and anti-interference capabilities in complex scenarios such as deep water, shallow water, and shaded water bodies.
