[0047] In existing technologies, passenger flow management in railway passenger stations still relies heavily on manual control. Although railway passenger stations have achieved initial information coverage of various systems, the integration level of these systems is low, and the management methods are relatively outdated. Visualization displays use 2D or 2.5D methods, which cannot achieve dynamic, real-time twin-like displays that link train operation data with business operations such as stops and emergency simulations. This invention proposes a panoramic management method and system for railway passenger stations based on digital twins. Based on Building Information Modeling (BIM) and Geographic Information System (GIS), a digital twin 3D model of the railway passenger station is constructed using real-time collected graphic data and geospatial data of various physical equipment. The working data of each physical equipment in the railway passenger station are integrated into the digital twin 3D model according to spatial relationships or subject-specific correspondences. The model includes operational data such as real-time operation data, historical operation data, planned future operation data, and external environment data. The real-time operation data, historical operation data, and planned future operation data all include personnel allocation data and physical equipment operation data. Statistical features are obtained by processing the operational parameters of each physical equipment using a preset analysis algorithm, and then input into a pre-trained prediction model to obtain a prediction result of the railway passenger station's operational status. Based on the prediction result and preset control logic, a management and control plan is generated for allocating personnel and physical equipment and handling risks at the railway passenger station. The management and control plan is simulated on the digital twin 3D model, and the plan is adjusted based on the simulation results. The adjusted management and control plan is then implemented on each physical equipment in the railway passenger station, and its operational status is displayed.

[0048] Figure 1 This is a flowchart illustrating a panoramic management and control method for railway passenger stations based on digital twins, as described in an embodiment of the present invention. Specifically, one aspect of the present invention provides a panoramic management and control method for railway passenger stations based on digital twins, which includes the following steps S101 to S103:

[0049] Step S101: Based on Building Information Modeling (BIM) and Geographic Information System (GIS), construct a digital twin 3D model of the railway passenger station using real-time collected graphic data and geospatial data of each physical equipment. Integrate the operational data of each physical equipment in the railway passenger station into the digital twin 3D model according to spatial relationships or subject-specific correspondences. The operational data includes real-time operation data, historical operation data, future planned operation data, and external environment data. Real-time operation data, historical operation data, and future planned operation data all include personnel allocation data and physical equipment operation data.

[0050] Step S102: Process the working parameters of each physical device according to the preset analysis algorithm to obtain statistical features, and input them into the pre-trained prediction model to obtain the prediction results of the railway passenger station's operating status. Based on the prediction results and the preset control logic, generate a management and control plan for allocating personnel and physical devices and handling the risk situation of the railway passenger station.

[0051] Step S103: Simulate the operation of the control plan on the digital twin 3D model, adjust the control plan according to the simulation results, implement the adjusted control plan on each physical equipment in the railway passenger station, and display the operation status.

[0052] In step S101, in some embodiments, based on Building Information Modeling (BIM) and Geographic Information System (GIS), a digital twin 3D model of the railway passenger station is constructed according to the graphic data and geospatial data of each physical equipment in the railway passenger station collected in real time, including steps S1011 to S1013:

[0053] Step S1011: Input the graphic data into the building information model to obtain the three-dimensional equipment model of each entity equipment. After performing coordinate system transformation and format conversion on the geospatial data, input it into the geographic information system to obtain the spatial position relationship and geographical location relationship of each entity equipment.

[0054] Step S1012: Using a preset data conversion tool, the 3D equipment model is fused with spatial and geographical relationships to obtain a digital twin 3D model containing the architectural details and architectural location relationships of the railway passenger station.

[0055] Step S1013: Check the digital twin model for gaps, overlaps, or abnormal shapes and make adjustments.

[0056] Specifically, the graphic data includes the geometry, size, and material of each physical device in the railway passenger station; the geospatial data includes the spatial relationships between these devices and the geographical relationships surrounding the railway passenger station; the Building Information Model (BIM) constructs a 3D model of the internal equipment of the railway passenger station using the geometric and attribute information of each physical device; the Geographic Information System (GIS) performs coordinate system transformation on the collected geospatial data to ensure consistency with the actual geographical location of the railway passenger station, for example, transforming the geographic coordinate system to a Cartesian coordinate system; then, through data encoding, decoding, and compression, the data is converted into a format that the GIS can recognize and process before being input into the GIS; preset conversion tools align and match the 3D equipment model with the spatial and geographical relationships, ensuring that each physical device accurately corresponds to a digital twin 3D model in the 3D equipment model and the GIS, which includes the building structure and equipment layout; furthermore, adjustments are made to digital twin 3D models with gaps, overlaps, or abnormal shapes to ensure complete synchronization with the railway passenger station. Building information models include, but are not limited to, Autodesk Revit, Bentley Architecture, and Archicad; geographic information systems include, but are not limited to, ArcGIS Desktop, QGIS, and Global Mapper.

[0057] In some embodiments, the working data of various physical equipment in a railway passenger station are integrated into a digital twin 3D model according to spatial relationships or subject-to-subject correspondence relationships, including steps S11 to S12:

[0058] Step S11: Transmit the graphic data and geospatial data of each physical device to the edge computing node, and then transmit the data to the cloud computing platform after data cleaning, format conversion, noise filtering and data compression at the edge computing node.

[0059] Step S12: Perform time and spatial correlation between the processed graphic data and geospatial data and real-time operation data, historical operation data, future planned operation data and external environment data, and use data merging algorithm and data correlation algorithm to merge and integrate the data into the corresponding physical device in the digital twin 3D model.

[0060] Furthermore, each physical device is associated with its corresponding operational data for each time period. The operational data includes data from different sources and in different formats. Data of different formats is converted into data formats through image compression and video frame extraction. Sequence data from different times are synchronized through time alignment. External environmental data includes, but is not limited to, light intensity, air quality, temperature, and humidity. Personnel allocation data and physical equipment operation data enable the monitoring of personnel elements and physical equipment operation elements in railway passenger stations. Physical equipment includes, but is not limited to, trains, station buildings, turnstiles, broadcasting equipment, Bluetooth, guidance screens, radio frequency modules (RFID), elevators, sensors, end alarm devices, water supply equipment, sewage suction equipment, and cameras. In some embodiments, the steps for acquiring operational data include: real-time monitoring of train on-the-go information, timetables, schedules, and actual train arrival and departure times; real-time monitoring of the operational status of each physical device in the railway passenger station when trains arrive and depart; and obtaining staff information based on preset personnel work plans and positioning tools.

[0061] By using video surveillance, ticketing data, and ticket checking data, we can obtain hourly passenger flow, passenger flow direction, passenger behavior, number of people queuing, number of people moving on trains, and personnel allocation within railway passenger stations. Based on historical hourly passenger flow, passenger flow direction, passenger behavior, number of people queuing, number of people moving on trains, personnel allocation, and future hourly passenger flow, passenger flow direction, passenger behavior, number of people queuing, number of people moving on trains, and personnel allocation within railway passenger stations, we can obtain future hourly passenger flow, passenger flow direction, passenger behavior, number of people queuing, number of people moving on trains, and personnel allocation within railway passenger stations.

[0062] In step S102, in some embodiments, the working parameters of each physical device are processed according to a preset analysis algorithm to obtain statistical features, which are then input into a pre-trained prediction model to obtain the prediction result of the railway passenger station's operating status, including steps S1021 to S1022:

[0063] Step S1021: Format the real-time running data, historical running data, future planned running data, and external environment data.

[0064] Step S1022: Extract features using correlation analysis or principal component analysis, and standardize the extracted features to obtain statistical features.

[0065] Specifically, formatting includes standardizing data formats, data cleaning, and data transformation; correlation analysis methods calculate correlation coefficients between different data and identify features highly correlated with the operational status of railway passenger stations. Examples include calculating the correlation coefficient between passenger flow and train delays / weather conditions, and the correlation coefficient between equipment malfunctions and equipment operating time / ambient temperature. Principal component analysis projects data into a new coordinate system through linear transformation, maximizing the variance along the principal component directions in the new coordinate system. This reduces high-dimensional data to a low-dimensional space and extracts the most important features. Examples include reducing features affecting passenger flow to a few principal components, and reducing features affecting the operational status of various equipment to a few principal components. Feature standardization methods include Z-score standardization and Min-Max standardization.

[0066] Furthermore, the prediction results of the railway passenger station's operational status include, but are not limited to, passenger flow prediction, usage status prediction of various physical equipment, train arrival and departure time prediction, and staff allocation prediction. The preset control logic is set based on the railway passenger station's operational rules and association rules. Examples include increasing or decreasing security checkpoints, transfer channels, and staff based on passenger flow prediction results; conducting equipment maintenance in advance based on equipment failure prediction results; and evacuating passengers and adjusting train timetables based on risk prediction results. In some embodiments, the pre-training process of the prediction model includes steps S21 to S22:

[0067] Step S21: Obtain a training sample set, which contains multiple samples. Each sample contains a statistical feature obtained by processing the working parameters of the physical device. The statistical feature is labeled with the actual value of the railway passenger station's operating status.

[0068] Step S22: Train the initial neural network model using the training sample set. The initial neural network model takes the samples in the training sample set as input and the predicted running state as output. Construct a loss function based on the deviation between the predicted running state and the actual running state. Iterate and update the parameters of the initial neural network model with the goal of minimizing the loss function until the preset termination condition is reached to obtain the prediction model.

[0069] In step S103, the control plan is simulated in a digital twin 3D model, including personnel deployment simulation, physical equipment deployment simulation, and risk handling simulation. Based on feedback data from the real-time simulation results, the control plan is adjusted according to preset control logic. The control plan includes, but is not limited to, changing the number of security checkpoints and staff, adjusting the distribution of staff in different areas, adjusting the layout of waiting areas, adjusting the number of ticket gates, and arranging physical equipment maintenance and preparing backup equipment in advance. In some embodiments, after adjusting the control plan based on the simulation results and implementing the adjusted control plan for each physical equipment in the railway passenger station and displaying its operational status, the plan further includes: identifying potential risks based on the operational status to obtain a risk index, comparing the risk index with a preset risk threshold, and issuing a warning signal when the risk index approaches or exceeds the preset risk threshold. The equipment status, passenger flow, and warning signals of each physical equipment are marked and displayed using text labels and color classification. Specifically, the operating status includes, but is not limited to, equipment operating parameters, equipment fault status, and passenger flow distribution status; the risk index is used to quantify the severity of risk situations, and the risk threshold is set through the operating rules and safety standards of railway passenger stations; the warning signal includes the risk type, risk location, and risk severity; for example, equipment status is marked as normal, faulty, and under maintenance using text labels, passenger flow is marked as low, medium, and high, and warning signals are marked as general warnings and special warnings, and different equipment statuses, passenger flows, and warning signals are classified and marked with different colors using color labels.
