Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to a remote sensing identification system and method for suspended sediment in rivers and reservoirs based on water color differences, belonging to the field of water ecological environment monitoring technology, and is particularly applicable to remote sensing identification of suspended sediment in rivers and reservoirs based on water color differences. Background Technology

[0002] Suspended sediment is a core parameter determining the optical properties of river and reservoir waters, such as transparency, turbidity, and color. It is also a crucial foundation for studying water environment processes like sediment transport, geomorphological evolution, and eutrophication in rivers and reservoirs. Understanding the spatial distribution and temporal evolution of suspended sediment not only provides data support for research on the spatiotemporal evolution mechanisms of suspended sediment in rivers and reservoirs but also offers decision-making basis for flood control and emergency response, dam operation and maintenance, and navigation scheduling.

[0003] Currently, conventional methods for monitoring suspended sediment mainly rely on station-based monitoring that can continuously and accurately obtain suspended sediment content over a time scale. However, the high cost of station construction and maintenance results in a small number of stations with sparse distribution, making large-scale continuous spatial monitoring impossible. More importantly, artificial water storage and release operations significantly alter the hydrological conditions of river and reservoir main streams and tributaries. Coupled with the "storing clear water and discharging turbid water" scheduling strategy, this leads to frequent and drastic fluctuations in suspended sediment content in the backwater areas of river and reservoir main streams and tributaries, creating drastically different water color conditions in specific spatiotemporal domains. Therefore, existing monitoring methods are insufficient to reveal the spatiotemporal characteristics of suspended sediment in river and reservoir main streams and tributaries and their response to environmental changes. There is an urgent need to establish a remote sensing model for suspended sediment in river and reservoir main streams and tributaries to achieve dynamic spatiotemporal monitoring of suspended sediment, thereby providing technical support for river and reservoir sedimentation control, water environment protection, and navigation safety. Summary of the Invention

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to overcome the shortcomings of the prior art and provide a remote sensing identification system and method for suspended sediment in rivers and reservoirs based on water color differences. By acquiring satellite multispectral image data and combining zonal modeling and multi-source data fusion, the spatiotemporal evolution process of suspended sediment can be accurately depicted.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention provides the following technical solution:

[0006] A remote sensing identification system for suspended sediment in rivers and reservoirs based on water color differences, combined with Figure 1 Its features include a data acquisition module, a data preprocessing and fusion module, a spatiotemporal registration engine, a turbidity inversion module, a suspended sediment identification and classification module, and a report generation and visualization platform connected in sequence.

[0007] The data acquisition module includes a satellite remote sensing data acquisition unit and an in-situ turbidity data acquisition unit. The satellite remote sensing data acquisition unit interfaces with the Google Earth Engine (GEE) cloud platform API to automatically search and download multispectral satellite images according to spatiotemporal range. The in-situ turbidity data acquisition unit receives and manages in-situ observation turbidity data from monitoring stations and ship-based measurements to obtain measured turbidity values.

[0008] The data preprocessing and fusion module includes an image correction unit, an image fusion unit, and an image reflectance extraction unit. The image correction unit is connected to the satellite remote sensing data acquisition unit and automatically performs radiometric calibration, atmospheric correction, and geometric fine correction on multispectral satellite images. The image fusion unit is connected to the image correction unit and uses a pixel-level fusion algorithm to fuse high spatiotemporal resolution images, solving the problems of cloud cover and data loss. The image reflectance extraction unit is connected to the image fusion unit and automatically segments and extracts reflectance data from the main stream area and each tributary area.

[0009] The spatiotemporal registration engine is connected to the output of the in-situ turbidity data acquisition unit and the output of the image reflectance extraction unit, respectively. It automatically matches the position and time of the in-situ measurement point with the time of the multispectral satellite image to construct paired data of reflectance and turbidity under the same spatiotemporal conditions.

[0010] The turbidity inversion module includes a main stream turbidity inversion unit and a tributary turbidity inversion unit. The main stream turbidity inversion unit is connected to the output of the spatiotemporal registration engine and uses a support vector regression (SVR) machine learning model to establish a machine learning relationship model between remotely sensed reflectance and measured turbidity values, thereby realizing remote sensing inversion of turbidity in the main stream of rivers and reservoirs. The tributary turbidity inversion unit is connected to the output of the spatiotemporal registration engine and calculates the correlation coefficient between turbidity and reflectance in each band according to the reservoir operation cycle, establishing empirical formula models for different cycles, thereby realizing remote sensing inversion of turbidity in the tributaries of rivers and reservoirs.

[0011] The suspended sediment identification and classification module is a classifier that is connected to the output of the main stream turbidity inversion unit and the tributary turbidity inversion unit. According to the set turbidity threshold, the turbidity inversion results of the main stream and tributaries are uniformly divided into four levels: clear, low, medium and high, and "high turbidity" water bodies are automatically identified as "suspended sediment water bodies".

[0012] The report generation and visualization platform is connected to the output of the suspended sediment identification and classification unit, and displays the identification results of suspended sediment to the water environment management department in the form of charts, reports and interactive web maps.

[0017] S4: Suspended sediment identification and analysis: The turbidity of the main stream and tributaries predicted by the turbidity inversion model is input into the classifier and classified into four levels of suspended sediment: clear, low, medium and high. The classifier is then trained using the dataset from step S2.

[0018] S5: Analyze the spatial distribution and temporal evolution characteristics of the suspended sediment identification results and present them to the water environment management department in the form of charts, reports and interactive web maps.

[0019] Furthermore, step S1 specifically includes:

[0020] S101: The satellite remote sensing data acquisition unit interfaces with the GEE cloud platform API to automatically acquire multispectral satellite images of the area;

[0021] S102: The image correction unit performs radiometric calibration, atmospheric correction, and geometric fine correction on the original multispectral satellite imagery in sequence to eliminate sensor and atmospheric interference;

[0022] S103: The image fusion unit uses a pixel-level fusion algorithm to fuse multispectral satellite images processed in step S102 at multiple times to solve the problems of cloud coverage and data loss, and generate high-quality seamless reflectance images.

[0023] S104: The image reflectance extraction unit performs water body masking and partitioning based on the water body index and the vector boundaries of the main stream and tributaries, and finally extracts the independent multispectral reflectance data of the main stream and each tributary.

[0024] Furthermore, the spatiotemporal registration rules described in step S2 are as follows: (a) Location registration: Match the latitude and longitude coordinates corresponding to the measured turbidity values ​​from the monitoring station and ship with the image reflectance data from the GEE platform; (b) Time registration: If there are measured turbidity values ​​on a certain day but no satellite image reflectance data, then select the closest image reflectance data within ±7 days to pair with the measured turbidity values; if there are multiple measured turbidity values ​​on the same day, then select the measured turbidity value closest to 12 noon to reduce the impact of daily variations.

[0025] Furthermore, the working principle of the main stream turbidity inversion model described in step S3 is as follows:

[0026] S3011: Extract the blue, green, red, near-infrared, and short-wave infrared frequencies from the paired data of reflectance and turbidity according to the frequency of reflectance;

[0027] S3012: Logarithmic transformation was performed on the measured turbidity values ​​in the paired data of reflectance and turbidity;

[0028] S3013: Perform One-Hot encoding on hydrological period information;

[0029] S3014: Concatenate the data from steps S3011 to S3013 and use the results as input to the support vector regression model;

[0030] S3015: Set up the hyperparameter search space for the support vector regression model, use the dataset from step S2 to find the optimal parameter combination in the parameter space through grid search, and construct a high-performance, highly generalizable main stream turbidity inversion model to realize remote sensing inversion of turbidity in river and reservoir main streams.

[0031] Furthermore, the specific working principle of the tributary turbidity inversion model described in step S3 is as follows:

[0032] S3021: Extract the blue, green, red, near-infrared, and short-wave infrared frequencies from the paired data of reflectance and turbidity according to the frequency of reflectance;

[0033] S3022: The paired data of reflectance and turbidity are divided according to the discharge period, flood period, water storage period, and high water level operation period;

[0034] S3023: Establish the measured turbidity value using a multivariate empirical formula model ( ) and blue light Green light Red light Near-infrared and shortwave infrared Quantitative relationship of reflectivity across different wavebands;

[0041] In particular, when analyzing the optical characteristics of the main stream of rivers and reservoirs, it is necessary to consider the response characteristics of phytoplankton, suspended particulate matter, and yellow substances to remote sensing reflectance in different bands. Because the main stream environment is relatively complex, multiple spectral bands of reflectance that are sensitive to changes in turbidity are selected as independent variables, and the optimal combination is chosen as the independent variable. Five key bands, including blue light, green light, red light, near-infrared and short-wave infrared, are selected.

[0042] Furthermore, the classifier described in step S4 includes, but is not limited to, logistic regression, random forest, support vector machine, neural network, Naive Bayes classifier, and gradient boosting tree.

[0043] An electronic device includes at least one processor; and a memory communicatively connected to said at least one processor; wherein,

[0044] The memory stores a computer program that is executed by the at least one processor, which enables the at least one processor to perform the above-described remote sensing identification method for suspended sediment in rivers and reservoirs based on water color differences.

[0045] Finally, the present invention also discloses a computer-readable storage medium storing computer instructions, which are used to cause a processor to execute the above-described remote sensing identification method for suspended sediment in rivers and reservoirs based on water color differences.

[0046] The beneficial effects of this invention are as follows: It provides a remote sensing identification system and method for suspended sediment in rivers and reservoirs based on water color differences. By constructing a remote sensing identification system for suspended sediment in rivers and reservoirs based on water color differences, it achieves high-precision and automated monitoring of the spatiotemporal distribution of suspended sediment in rivers and reservoirs. This system innovatively adopts a tributary-mainstream regional inversion strategy, employing a support vector regression machine learning model for the complex optical characteristics of the mainstream and establishing multi-mode empirical models for different hydrological periods of the tributaries, effectively solving the problem of water color differences between mainstream and tributaries caused by reservoir scheduling. This invention significantly improves the accuracy and availability of turbidity inversion through multi-source remote sensing data fusion and spatiotemporal registration technology. The final generated suspended sediment classification map and spatiotemporal evolution report provide reliable decision support for river and reservoir sediment deposition control, water environment protection, and navigation safety.
