Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the technical field of dynamic monitoring and early warning methods for soil erosion in water conservancy projects, and discloses a method for dynamic monitoring and early warning of soil erosion in water conservancy projects. Background Technology

[0002] With the continuous expansion of water conservancy projects in my country, soil erosion has become a key factor affecting project safety and ecological sustainability. Soil erosion not only leads to decreased soil fertility and increased river siltation, but can also trigger secondary disasters such as landslides and debris flows, seriously threatening infrastructure stability and the safety of people's lives and property. To achieve scientific control of soil erosion, dynamic monitoring and early warning technologies are increasingly becoming core components of intelligent management of water conservancy projects. These technologies typically rely on wireless sensor networks deployed in watersheds or slope areas to collect multi-source environmental parameters such as rainfall, soil moisture content, surface runoff, and displacement in real time, constructing soil erosion risk assessment models to support decision-making and response.

[0003] A dynamic monitoring method for soil erosion based on wireless sensor networks aims to continuously acquire information on changes in the topographic surface condition through distributed sensing nodes and aggregate the data to a central platform for analysis and processing. Its basic principle is to use sensors to perform high-frequency sampling of key hydrological and geological indicators, combine this with spatiotemporal correlation algorithms to identify erosion hotspots, and trigger a tiered early warning mechanism based on threshold rules. However, this technical approach faces significant challenges in typical water conservancy scenarios such as complex mountains, canyons, or densely vegetated areas.

[0004] Wireless sensor networks typically employ static topologies or fixed clustering strategies for data transmission, failing to adequately consider the occlusion effects of terrain undulations on wireless signal propagation. In areas with drastic elevation changes or obstacles, inter-node communication links are highly susceptible to failure due to line-of-sight interruptions, resulting in localized data loss and creating monitoring blind spots. Furthermore, traditional relay node selection relies on preset locations or simple distance measurements, making it difficult to adapt to subtle terrain changes caused by dynamic processes such as rainfall erosion and soil displacement, leading to a continuous deterioration in network connectivity. Moreover, due to the sudden and rapid evolution of soil erosion events, data transmission interruptions directly result in the loss of critical process information, severely impacting the timeliness and accuracy of early warning models. Summary of the Invention

[0005] To address the aforementioned problems, this invention provides a method for dynamic monitoring and early warning of soil erosion in water conservancy projects, comprising: A multi-level heterogeneous sensing network is deployed to acquire ground sensing data, including soil moisture content, surface runoff velocity, rainfall, slope angle, and micro-meteorological parameters. Acquire multi-source remote sensing image data, including optical satellite imagery, synthetic aperture radar imagery, and UAV aerial imagery; Adaptive spatiotemporal alignment and feature-level fusion are performed on the ground sensor data and the multi-source remote sensing image data to generate a comprehensive soil and water loss perception dataset. Based on the comprehensive soil and water loss perception dataset, soil and water loss risk factors are extracted and a dynamic risk model is constructed. The soil and water loss risk factors include runoff erosivity index, soil erodibility index, vegetation protection index and topography driving index. The dynamic risk model is used to predict the spatiotemporal evolution trend of soil erosion, and a graded early warning signal is generated based on a preset threshold. The tiered early warning signal is pushed to the management terminal, and feedback control instructions are triggered to adjust the monitoring strategy or engineering measures.

The topographic driving index was calculated using the topographic factor method in the general soil loss equation. The runoff erosivity index, soil erodibility index, vegetation protection index, and topographic driving index are weighted and summed to generate a comprehensive risk value. The weighting coefficients are determined by inverting historical disaster samples based on the regional hydrogeological characteristics.

[0009] Preferably, the dynamic risk model is used to predict the spatiotemporal evolution trend of soil erosion, and a graded early warning signal is generated based on a preset threshold, including: The comprehensive risk value sequence of the past 24 hours is input into a spatiotemporal convolutional long short-term memory network to predict the risk value for the next 12 hours. The spatiotemporal convolutional long short-term memory network comprises three layers of spatiotemporal convolutional modules and two layers of long short-term memory units. Residual analysis is performed between the predicted results and the measured risk values. If the predicted residual exceeds 15% for three consecutive hours, the online fine-tuning mechanism of the model is triggered. Blue, yellow, orange, or red warning signals are generated based on the range of the comprehensive risk value. Each warning level corresponds to a different risk threshold and response measures.

[0010] Preferably, the graded early warning signal is pushed to the management terminal, and a feedback control command is triggered to adjust the monitoring strategy or engineering measures, including: The warning signal is pushed to the mobile application and the command center screen via message queue telemetry transmission protocol; Under a blue alert, increase the frequency of drone inspections; Under a yellow alert, the backup sensor unit is activated and the data reporting frequency is increased to once per minute; Under an orange alert, remotely controlled, liftable sand-blocking fences are deployed, and the local storage acceleration mode of edge nodes is activated. Under a red alert, non-essential power supplies are cut off, with only the BeiDou short message communication module remaining operational to continuously report location and status.

[0011] Preferably, the soil moisture sensor adopts the frequency domain reflectance principle, with a sampling frequency of once per minute, a measurement range of 0% to 50%, and an accuracy of ±0.5%; the surface runoff velocity meter is based on the ultrasonic Doppler effect, with a sampling frequency of once every 10 seconds and a range of 0 to 3 meters per second; the rainfall meter has a tipping bucket structure and a resolution of 0.2 millimeters; the slope inclinometer uses a three-axis MEMS accelerometer and gyroscope fusion calculation, with an update cycle of 1 second; the micro-weather station collects ambient temperature, relative humidity, wind speed, and wind direction, with a data update frequency of once every 30 seconds; all sensor data are appended with a timestamp provided by the BeiDou time synchronization module, with a time synchronization error of less than 10 milliseconds.

[0013] Preferably, the dynamic risk model operates with a 72-hour sliding time window, updating the comprehensive risk value of each grid cell hourly; the weighting coefficients satisfy... + + + =1, where , , The weights correspond to the runoff erosivity index, soil erodibility index, vegetation protection index, and topographic driving index, respectively.

[0014] Preferably, the blue warning corresponds to a comprehensive risk value greater than 0.3 and less than or equal to 0.5; the yellow warning corresponds to a risk value greater than 0.5 and less than or equal to 0.7; the orange warning corresponds to a risk value greater than 0.7 and less than or equal to 0.9; and the red warning corresponds to a risk value greater than 0.9. The warning thresholds are dynamically adjusted according to the season, watershed characteristics, and project importance, and the adjustment rules are provided by an expert knowledge base.

[0015] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the present invention are as follows:

[0016] 1. By constructing a multi-level heterogeneous sensing network consisting of a monitoring terminal layer, an edge computing node layer, and a communication relay layer, and addressing the signal obstruction problem in complex terrain, frequency-hopping spread spectrum multi-hop transmission technology and solar-powered self-organizing network relay nodes are employed, combined with a spatial kriging interpolation compensation mechanism. This achieves full-area coverage and continuous acquisition of core parameters such as soil moisture content, surface runoff velocity, and rainfall. This completely solves the problems of communication link failure and data transmission interruption inherent in traditional static sensor networks, ensuring no data loss throughout the entire process of soil erosion and guaranteeing the integrity and continuity of the monitoring system.

[0017] 2. An innovative adaptive spatiotemporal alignment and feature-level fusion strategy is adopted to accurately register ground-based dynamic sensing data with multi-source remote sensing static / macroscopic data. Through unified spatiotemporal grids, cubic spline interpolation, time-weighted averaging, and normalization, a multi-dimensional feature tensor is constructed, eliminating dimensional differences and spatiotemporal misalignments among the heterogeneous data from multiple sources. The fused integrated sensing dataset is stored in NetCDF format, supporting efficient reading and parallel computing. Compared to a single data source, this significantly improves data integrity and accuracy, providing comprehensive and reliable foundational support for risk modeling.

[0018] 3. Based on four core risk factors—runoff erosivity, soil erodibility, vegetation protection, and topographical factors—a 72-hour sliding time window dynamic risk model is constructed. This model updates the comprehensive risk value of grid cells hourly, overcoming the limitations of traditional static models that cannot adapt to the sudden and rapid evolution of soil erosion. A spatiotemporal convolutional LSTM network is used to predict risk trends for the next 12 hours. Residual analysis and online fine-tuning mechanisms ensure that prediction errors are controlled within a reasonable range. Compared to existing technologies, the early warning response lag time is significantly shortened, achieving a shift from passive response to proactive prediction.

[0019] 4. Establish a four-level early warning system (blue-yellow-orange-red), formulate differentiated and implementable response measures for different risk levels, and use the MQTT protocol to push early warning signals to mobile terminals and command centers with low latency.

Detailed Implementation

[0021] Please refer to Figures 1 to 6 In complex terrain conditions, traditional wireless sensor networks deployed in water conservancy engineering areas often experience communication link interruptions due to obstruction by mountains, vegetation, or man-made structures, creating data transmission blind spots. These blind spots prevent the real-time collection and transmission of key parameters related to soil erosion, such as soil moisture content, surface runoff velocity, and slope erosion, leading to a delayed response of the monitoring system to sudden soil erosion events and hindering accurate early warning and emergency control. To address this technical problem, this invention proposes a dynamic monitoring and early warning method for soil erosion in water conservancy engineering. This method constructs a multi-level heterogeneous sensing network, integrates multi-source remote sensing and ground sensor data, establishes a risk dynamic modeling mechanism based on spatiotemporal evolution characteristics, and introduces an edge-cloud collaborative computing architecture to achieve continuous, comprehensive, and high-precision perception and hierarchical early warning of the soil erosion process.

[0022] The method includes the following steps: S1, deploy a multi-level heterogeneous sensing network to acquire ground sensing data; S2, acquire multi-source remote sensing image data; S3, perform adaptive spatiotemporal alignment and feature-level fusion on the ground sensor data and the multi-source remote sensing image data to generate a comprehensive soil and water loss perception dataset. S4. Based on the comprehensive soil and water loss perception dataset, extract soil and water loss risk factors and construct a dynamic risk model; S5. Based on the dynamic risk model, predict the spatiotemporal evolution trend of soil erosion and generate graded early warning signals according to preset thresholds. S6, push the graded early warning signal to the management terminal and trigger feedback control instructions to adjust the monitoring strategy or engineering measures.

[0023] In step S1, a multi-level heterogeneous sensing network is deployed to acquire ground sensing data. This multi-level heterogeneous sensing network consists of a monitoring terminal layer, an edge computing node layer, and a communication relay layer. The monitoring terminal layer includes several distributed ground sensing units, each integrating a soil moisture sensor, a surface runoff velocity meter, a rainfall meter, a slope inclinometer, and a micro-weather station. The soil moisture sensor uses the frequency domain reflectance principle, outputting volumetric water content values ​​at a sampling frequency of once per minute, with a measurement range of 0% to 50% and an accuracy of ±0.5%. The surface runoff velocity meter, based on the ultrasonic Doppler effect, is installed at the bottom of the slope runoff channel to measure the surface velocity of water flow in real time, with a sampling frequency of once every 10 seconds and a range of 0 to 3 meters per second.

[0024] The rain gauge is a tipping bucket structure with a resolution of 0.2 mm, recording cumulative rainfall and instantaneous rainfall intensity. The slope inclinometer uses a three-axis MEMS accelerometer and gyroscope fusion calculation to output the three-dimensional slope inclinometer, with an update cycle of 1 second. The micro-weather station collects ambient temperature, relative humidity, wind speed, and wind direction, with a data update frequency of once every 30 seconds. All sensor data are appended with high-precision timestamps, and the time reference is uniformly provided by the BeiDou time synchronization module, with a time synchronization error of less than 10 milliseconds.

[0025] The monitoring terminal layer communicates with the edge computing node layer via a low-power wide-area network (LPWAN) protocol. In areas with severe signal obstruction, a communication relay layer is added. These relay nodes are solar-powered and possess self-organizing network capabilities. They dynamically select the optimal channel within the 400 MHz to 900 MHz frequency band using frequency hopping spread spectrum technology, ensuring reliable data packet transmission across multi-hop paths. Each edge computing node has a coverage radius of no more than 2 kilometers and connects to no fewer than 20 ground sensing units. The edge computing nodes have built-in embedded processors and solid-state storage, performing local data caching, preliminary filtering, and anomaly detection. When a ground sensing unit fails to respond to heartbeat packets three times consecutively, the edge computing node determines that its communication has been interrupted and initiates a data interpolation compensation mechanism for neighboring nodes. It uses spatial kriging interpolation to estimate the soil moisture content and runoff velocity at missing points. The interpolation weights are determined by Euclidean distance and terrain shading factors. The terrain shading factors are pre-calculated using a digital elevation model and stored in the edge node's local database.

[0026] In step S2, multi-source remote sensing image data is acquired. This multi-source remote sensing image data includes optical satellite imagery, synthetic aperture radar (SAR) imagery, and UAV aerial imagery. Optical satellite imagery is sourced from the Gaofen series or Sentinel-2 satellites, with a spatial resolution of 10 meters and a revisit period of 5 days. It is used to extract land cover type, vegetation cover, and the proportion of bare soil area. SAR imagery is sourced from the Sentinel-1 satellite, using the C-band, with a spatial resolution of 20 meters and a revisit period of 6 days. It possesses all-weather observation capabilities and is used to invert surface roughness, soil moisture, and surface deformation information. UAV aerial imagery is acquired by a fixed-wing UAV equipped with a multispectral camera, flying at an altitude of 300 meters and a ground sampling distance of 5 centimeters. Routine inspections are performed weekly, increasing to daily during heavy rain warnings. This is used to identify gully erosion, gully development, and signs of localized landslides. All remote sensing images undergo radiometric, geometric, and atmospheric correction. The coordinate system is converted to the National Geodetic 2000 coordinate system, and the time label is accurate to the image center time.

[0027] In step S3, adaptive spatiotemporal alignment and feature-level fusion are performed on the ground-sensing data and the multi-source remote sensing image data to generate a comprehensive soil and water loss perception dataset. First, a unified spatiotemporal grid is established, with a grid cell size of 50 meters × 50 meters and a time step of 1 hour. For the ground-sensing data, it is mapped to the nearest grid cell based on geographical location, and non-integer time data is aligned to the hour using cubic spline interpolation. For the remote sensing image data, it is resampled to the unified grid using bilinear interpolation, and multi-day images are fused into a single temporal data using a time-weighted average method. Subsequently, feature-level fusion is performed: soil moisture content, surface runoff velocity, and rainfall intensity are used as dynamic input features, and vegetation cover, surface roughness, and slope are used as static background features to construct a multi-dimensional feature tensor. Each dimension of this tensor corresponds to a physical quantity, and each grid cell corresponds to a feature vector at each time step. To eliminate dimensional differences, all features are normalized using the following normalization formula:

[0028] in, These are the original eigenvalues. and These are the minimum and maximum values ​​of this feature in the historical three-year data set, respectively. These are the normalized feature values. The normalization parameters are stored in the central database of the cloud platform and updated regularly. The fused comprehensive soil and water loss sensing dataset is stored in NetCDF format, including spatial, temporal, and feature dimensions, supporting efficient reading and parallel computation.

[0029] In step S4, soil erosion risk factors are extracted based on the comprehensive soil erosion perception dataset, and a dynamic risk model is constructed. The risk factors include runoff erosivity index, soil erodibility index, vegetation protection index, and topographic driving index. The runoff erosivity index is calculated by multiplying runoff kinetic energy and runoff volume per unit time, and its expression is:

[0030] in, For the first Surface runoff velocity at each time step This represents the corresponding flow rate per unit width. For time step, This represents the duration of the current rainfall event in steps. The soil erodibility index is determined by a combination of soil texture, organic matter content, and aggregate stability, mapped to a dimensionless value between 0 and 1 using a laboratory calibration curve. The vegetation protection index is defined as a weighted sum of vegetation cover and leaf area index, with weighting coefficients preset according to the regional ecological type. The topographic driving index is determined by both slope and slope length, calculated using the topographic factor method in the general soil loss equation. The above four risk factors are calculated independently in each grid cell, and a comprehensive risk value is generated through weighted summation.

[0031] in, The soil erodibility index. The vegetation protection index, Terrain-driven index, , , Let be the weighting coefficient, satisfying + + + =1, the weight value is determined by inversion of historical disaster samples based on the regional hydrogeological characteristics and stored in the model parameter library. The dynamic risk model runs in a sliding time window mode with a time window length of 72 hours, and updates the comprehensive risk value of each grid cell every hour.

[0032] In step S5, the spatiotemporal evolution trend of soil erosion is predicted based on the dynamic risk model, and a graded early warning signal is generated according to a preset threshold. The prediction employs a spatiotemporal convolutional long short-term memory network. The network input is the comprehensive risk value sequence of the past 24 hours, and the output is the predicted risk value for the next 12 hours. The network structure includes three layers of spatiotemporal convolutional modules, each with a kernel size of 3×3, a time step of 1, and channel numbers of 16, 32, and 64 respectively, followed by two layers of long short-term memory units, with a total of 128 hidden units. The model is trained on a cloud platform, and the inference process is executed by edge computing nodes to reduce cloud load. Residual analysis is performed between the prediction results and the measured risk values. If the prediction residual exceeds 15% for three consecutive hours, an online fine-tuning mechanism is triggered to update the network weights using the latest data.

[0033] The tiered early warning signals are divided into four levels: blue, yellow, orange, and red. A blue warning corresponds to a comprehensive risk value greater than 0.3 and less than or equal to 0.5, indicating a slight risk of soil erosion, requiring increased patrols. A yellow warning corresponds to a risk value greater than 0.5 and less than or equal to 0.7, indicating a moderate risk, suggesting the initiation of temporary protective measures. An orange warning corresponds to a risk value greater than 0.7 and less than or equal to 0.9, indicating a high risk, requiring immediate deployment of sand-trapping dams or covering nets. A red warning corresponds to a risk value greater than 0.9, indicating an extremely high risk, potentially triggering landslides or debris flows, necessitating the evacuation of personnel and the closure of relevant water conservancy facilities. The warning thresholds can be dynamically adjusted based on season, watershed characteristics, and project importance; the adjustment rules are provided by an expert knowledge base.

[0034] In step S6, the graded early warning signal is pushed to the management terminal, triggering feedback control commands to adjust monitoring strategies or engineering measures. The management terminal includes a mobile application and a command center screen. The early warning signal is pushed through a message queue telemetry transmission protocol to ensure low-latency delivery. Simultaneously, the system automatically generates feedback control commands: under a blue warning, increase the frequency of UAV inspections; under a yellow warning, activate backup sensing units and increase data reporting frequency to once per minute; under an orange warning, remotely control the deployment of the retractable sand-blocking fence and activate the local storage acceleration mode of the edge nodes; under a red warning, cut off unnecessary power supply, retaining only the BeiDou short message communication module to continuously report location and status. The execution status of all control commands is transmitted back from the edge nodes to the cloud platform, forming a closed-loop feedback. The cloud platform records the entire process data of each early warning event for subsequent model optimization and contingency plan revision.

[0035] The proposed method addresses monitoring blind spots caused by signal obstruction through a multi-level sensing network, enhances sensing accuracy through multi-source data fusion, achieves trend prediction using a dynamic risk model, and ensures timely response through tiered early warning and closed-loop control. The entire process operates within an edge-cloud collaborative architecture, balancing real-time performance with computational depth, and is suitable for water conservancy projects in complex terrain to control soil erosion.
