How to simulate and pre-act the operation conditions of the traffic infrastructure in complex mountainous areas in the early stage to avoid surveying and design defects or reinforce the risk sections in advance has become a big problem for researchers. Currently, the research on the development and evolution of geological disasters is mainly carried out through physical model tests and numerical simulations.

[0046] This way focuses on the quantitative evaluation and accurate correction of carving precision, and forms a closed-loop mechanism through three-dimensional scanning, B-spline curve fitting and root mean square error (RMSE) calculation: after layered carving is completed, the model point cloud is obtained by a three-dimensional scanner, the reconstructed B-spline curve is generated by coordinate conversion, slicing and projection fitting, the RMSE is calculated by taking points from the original curve, and whether to locally correct the inconsistent parts is determined according to the threshold. The three-dimensional point cloud technology and the mathematical quantitative method (RMSE) realize the objective and accurate control of precision, and only the inconsistent parts are locally corrected, avoiding overall rework, which greatly improves the efficiency. The beneficial effect is outstanding, which ensures that the topography of the scale model is highly consistent with the digital model, provides a high-precision physical carrier for complex mountainous geological disaster simulation (such as mountain torrents and landslides), and lays a reliable foundation for the reliability of geological engineering test data.
