Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the fields of surveying and mapping science and technology, specifically to satellite gravity observation technology, drought disaster monitoring and artificial intelligence data processing methods, and in particular to a sub-sun-level drought monitoring method and system based on gravity satellites. Background Technology

[0002] Satellite gravity observation technology is an important tool for monitoring changes in the Earth's gravitational field, thereby revealing the mass transfer processes within the Earth system. Changes in the Earth's gravitational field are closely related to changes in terrestrial water storage, mass changes in glaciers and ice sheets, and coseismic effects of earthquakes. High-precision gravity field observations can provide a better understanding of the mechanisms of global climate change, water resource distribution, and natural disasters.

[0003] Existing gravity satellite missions have significant limitations in temporal resolution, typically providing monthly (i.e., monthly) global gravity field data. This low temporal resolution limits their application in monitoring short-term mass changes. Monthly data cannot capture rapid processes of Earth's mass change, such as extreme drought events or sharp depletion of groundwater resources. These phenomena usually occur on timescales of days or even hours, and monthly data cannot provide sufficient detail on such timescales.

[0004] Secondly, drought poses a serious threat to agricultural production, the ecological environment, and domestic water supply. High temporal resolution satellite gravity observation technology is of great significance for monitoring drought disasters. Furthermore, by monitoring changes in terrestrial water storage in real time, the severity and extent of drought can be more accurately assessed, providing a scientific basis for disaster early warning and emergency response.

[0005] Therefore, improving the temporal resolution of satellite gravity field solutions and developing technologies that can monitor mass changes on short timescales in real time are not only of great significance to scientific research, but also provide reliable data support for the monitoring and early warning of drought disasters, facilitating the formulation of scientific water resource management policies and mitigating the losses caused by drought disasters.

This method uses high-temporal-resolution satellite gravity data to invert changes in land surface quality, combines this with a deep learning model to identify drought anomalies, and utilizes a 5G-A (Fifth Generation-Advanced) network to achieve real-time data transmission and visualization. This extends the drought monitoring cycle from monthly to sub-daily levels, significantly enhancing the response capability to sudden droughts.

[0070] Among them, the linear relationship between the gravity difference along the line of sight and the change in surface mass is as follows:

[0071] In the formula, The gravity difference vector is the line-of-sight direction. For designing the matrix; This is the mass change vector.

[0072] In this embodiment, the Tikhonov regularized inversion method is adopted. Based on the gravity difference vector along the line of sight and the design matrix, the mass change along the orbit of the sub-Sun-class is solved by the Tikhonov regularized method to obtain a stable solution. The least squares method is then used to solve for the mass change along the orbit of the sub-Sun-class, which is expressed as:

Based on the average mass change of the mass blocks within the target watershed, construct a drought mass change sequence for the watershed. Calculate the standard deviation based on the drought mass change sequence for the watershed. Use the standard deviation as the drought level determination threshold to determine the drought level and construct drought monitoring factors.

[0076] In this embodiment, when constructing drought monitoring factors, the standard deviation based on the standardized quality change sequence is calculated. Sequence values Drought at different scales is defined as a situation that persists for more than a week:

[0080] Step S50: Align drought monitoring factors with climate and hydrological data time series, input the improved Transformer architecture to extract temporal features, and combine ResNet convolutional network to extract spatial features; fuse features through fully connected layers, use the Softmax function to output drought anomaly probability, and dynamically adjust the anomaly probability judgment threshold based on the accuracy feedback of historical drought events.

[0081] In this embodiment, drought monitoring factors are aligned with time series of climate and hydrological data, and an improved Transformer architecture is used to extract temporal features. Spatial features are then extracted using a ResNet convolutional network. The specific process of neural network drought monitoring includes the following steps:

[0082] Temporal feature extraction: A Transformer architecture is adopted, and location encoding and multi-head attention mechanisms are introduced to process time series data of drought monitoring factors;

[0083] Spatial feature extraction: Based on the spatial distribution of mass variation, ResNet convolutional network is used to extract regional drought features;

[0084] Threshold adaptive mechanism: The threshold for judging the probability of anomalies is dynamically adjusted based on the accuracy of historical drought events.

[0085] In this embodiment, the neural network drought disaster monitoring network first performs data input and preprocessing, standardizing climate and hydrological data and aligning the time series with drought monitoring factors. Based on the polygon information of the mass blocks, it extracts and calculates regional feature data within the mass blocks to ensure spatial consistency. Then, it extracts temporal features using a Transformer architecture incorporating a temporal attention mechanism to capture anomalous changes in drought monitoring factors and climate and hydrological data. Location encoding is introduced to enhance the model's understanding of the time series sequence; a multi-head attention mechanism is used to extract multi-scale temporal features, improving the model's ability to capture the drought evolution process. For spatial feature extraction, ResNet convolution is used based on the spatial distribution of drought monitoring factors to extract spatial features of drought disasters. Combining this with the spatial distribution of climate and hydrological data enhances the model's ability to identify regional drought characteristics. For anomaly pattern recognition, the extracted temporal and spatial features are input into a fully connected layer for feature fusion. The Softmax function outputs the anomaly probability to determine whether a drought anomaly has occurred. Then, the anomaly probability judgment threshold is dynamically adjusted based on historical drought events and real-time monitoring results. A feedback mechanism is introduced to optimize the threshold setting by combining user input and model output, improving monitoring accuracy. Finally, based on anomaly probability and quality change data, a comprehensive drought index is designed to quantify drought severity. The drought index includes temporal and spatial dimensions. Information such as the drought index, anomaly occurrence time, location, and severity is visualized, and combined with a geographic information system to generate a quantitative analysis report and a 3D dynamic visualization map.

[0087] The sub-day drought monitoring method using gravity satellites in this invention addresses the technical bottlenecks of existing gravity satellite drought monitoring technologies, such as low temporal resolution, insufficient drought identification accuracy, and low efficiency in processing massive amounts of data. Based on gravity satellite payload data and monthly solution data, it employs a line-of-sight gravity difference algorithm combined with adaptive filtering technology to invert high temporal resolution surface quality changes along the orbital direction, shortening the monitoring cycle to the sub-day level and constructing drought monitoring factors. A spatiotemporally coupled deep learning framework is constructed, employing an improved Transformer architecture neural network and introducing an attention mechanism to achieve efficient feature extraction and drought anomaly pattern recognition from time-series data of drought monitoring factors. A 5G-A transmission network is integrated to transmit quality change monitoring information in real time, and a quantitative analysis report and a three-dimensional dynamic visualization map are generated in conjunction with a geographic information system, highlighting the spatiotemporal distribution of water resource changes.

[0088] This invention improves the temporal resolution of drought monitoring to the sub-Sun timescale based on gravity satellite technology; it accurately identifies drought-related anomalies through a neural network model; and the 5G-A transmission module significantly reduces data latency. It is particularly suitable for dynamically capturing the evolution of drought processes, providing scientific observational data support at the sub-Sun timescale for drought early warning, water resource management, and climate research.

Based on preprocessed gravity satellite payload data and combined with the background force model, a dynamic reference orbit is obtained using the sliding polynomial integration method. Then, the range variation residual is obtained by subtracting the reference orbit from the measured range variation. The range acceleration residual is calculated using numerical difference, and then converted into the gravity difference in the line-of-sight direction using Fourier transform and transfer function.

[0092] The mass change inversion module is used to divide the daily line-of-sight gravity difference into multiple sub-day-level arc segments. Along each sub-day-level arc segment, a disk-shaped mass block is generated at fixed intervals. Each sub-day-level arc segment corresponds to multiple mass blocks. Fibonacci points are distributed inside the mass blocks as discrete points for integration. A design matrix is ​​constructed through a linear mapping relationship, and the Tikhonov regularized inversion method is used to solve for the sub-day-level track-side mass change based on the line-of-sight gravity difference vector and the design matrix. Intermediate and historical data can be stored in the internal memory of the sub-day-level drought monitoring system.

[0093] The drought monitoring factor construction module is used to calculate the average mass change of the mass blocks obtained by inversion within the target watershed. Based on the average mass change of the mass blocks within the target watershed, a drought mass change sequence of the watershed is constructed. The standard deviation of the drought mass change sequence of the watershed is calculated. The standard deviation is used as the drought level determination threshold to determine the drought level. A standardized drought monitoring factor that can determine the mild, moderate and severe drought levels is constructed.

[0095] The results output module is used to generate a comprehensive drought index based on the drought anomaly probability and the sub-day-level orbital mass change data obtained by inversion. Based on the comprehensive drought index, a quantitative analysis report is generated. Combined with the geographic information system engine, the geographic information system realizes three-dimensional dynamic visualization of drought level, spatial distribution, etc., forming an intuitive interface for visual display of decision results. At the same time, by integrating a 5G-A network drought monitoring and response unit, the monitoring data is transmitted in real time through the 5G-A network, and the monitoring report and early warning information are transmitted to water resource management platforms at all levels with a latency of less than milliseconds.

[0102] This invention discloses a sub-day-level drought monitoring method and system based on gravity satellites. By employing line-of-sight gravity difference inversion and sub-day-level arc segmentation, the processing cycle of gravity satellite data is shortened from the traditional monthly calculation to the sub-day level, increasing the monitoring frequency and enabling dynamic tracking of drought evolution. Furthermore, a Transformer architecture neural network is used to extract temporal features, combined with a ResNet convolutional network to extract spatial features, integrating drought monitoring factors, climate, and hydrological data to reduce missed detections and false alarms. The physical model based on gravity difference inversion provides interpretable drought monitoring factors, reducing dependence on empirical parameters. Tikhonov regularization stabilizes the quality inversion calculation, and Fibonacci point discretization integration improves numerical stability and avoids the accumulation of local errors. Sub-day-level monitoring provides a critical window for early drought warning, and quantitative drought indices support refined water resource management, achieving breakthroughs in drought monitoring in terms of temporal resolution, accuracy, efficiency, and adaptability.
