Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention belongs to the fields of water environment monitoring, watershed pollution simulation and smart water technology, specifically involving an integrated air-space-ground small watershed water pollution monitoring system. Background Technology

[0002] Currently, small watersheds are characterized by dispersed pollution sources, a high proportion of non-point source pollution, strong spatial heterogeneity, and significant influence of the underlying surface on hydrological and pollution processes. Accurate monitoring, rapid early warning, and long-term trend prediction are crucial for refined water environment management. Existing technologies mainly rely on three types of techniques: ground-based fixed-point monitoring, independent remote sensing monitoring by unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs), and traditional SWAT models (Soil and Water Assessment Tool, the mainstream tool for simulating distributed mechanisms in small watersheds). However, a deeply integrated and adaptively iterative unified system has not yet been formed, and its specific shortcomings are as follows: (1) The ground monitoring space coverage is seriously insufficient and can only obtain time series data of a limited number of points. It cannot reflect the spatial distribution of pollution in areas such as tributaries, reservoir bays, shorelines, and hidden sewage outlets, making it difficult to support the judgment of the pollution situation in the whole area and accurate source tracing.

[0003] (2) The monitoring of UAVs is completely disconnected from ground monitoring and model simulation. UAVs are only used as independent inspection tools. The inversion results are not calibrated together with high-precision ground data, nor are they used as spatial constraints in the model calibration process. The advantages of its areal data have not been effectively utilized.

[0004] (3) Traditional SWAT models rely solely on single-point calibration, resulting in low accuracy and poor reliability. They generally use time series data from a single cross-section at the watershed outlet for parameter calibration, lacking spatial distribution verification and prone to “different parameters with the same effect”. The model parameters are manually set once and remain static, making it impossible to adapt to dynamic changes such as land use, meteorology, and pollution sources.

[0005] (4) Without adaptive optimization and closed-loop update mechanism, the monitoring data and model simulation are independent of each other. New UAV or ground monitoring data cannot automatically trigger model parameter optimization. The system cannot evolve itself, and the simulation error continues to increase after long-term operation.

[0006] (5) The functions of early warning, source tracing and long-term prediction are scattered, and the decision support capability is weak. Pollution early warning relies on single-point threshold alarms and cannot combine spatial information to quickly simulate diffusion; the accuracy of source tracing and load accounting is low; and there is a lack of a unified visualization platform, which makes it difficult to support long-term governance decisions. Summary of the Invention

[0007] To address the shortcomings of existing small watershed water pollution monitoring and simulation prediction technologies, such as incomplete spatial coverage, low model calibration accuracy, inability to dynamically update parameters, inaccurate early warning and source tracing, and low long-term operation and maintenance value, this invention provides an integrated air-space-ground small watershed water pollution monitoring system.

The data standardization output unit is used to output the global spatial raster map containing water quality spatial distribution information obtained by inversion to the multi-source data management module through a standardized interface.

[0010] Preferably, the multi-source data management module includes: The data access unit is used to access a global spatial raster map containing water quality spatial distribution information, the water quality and hydrological baseline data, DEM topographic data, soil / land use data, daily meteorological data, and artificial sampling laboratory data; The data cleaning unit is used to perform customized cleaning based on the different data types accessed by the data access unit, and obtain cleaned multi-source data.

The model scheduling unit is used to construct a distributed hydrological and water quality mechanism model for small watersheds based on the hydrological cycle simulation results, the sediment transport simulation results, and the pollutant migration and transformation simulation results, and to receive parameter updates from the adaptive parameter optimization module and automatically trigger model rerun.

[0012] Preferably, the adaptive parameter optimization module includes: The sensitive parameter identification unit is used to select sensitive parameters from the parameters of the small watershed distributed hydrological and water quality mechanism model that meet the preset sensitivity for their impact on water quality and hydrological simulation using a global sensitivity analysis method. The dual-objective joint objective function construction unit is used to construct a joint objective function that simultaneously constrains the fitting accuracy of time series and the similarity of spatial distribution. The intelligent optimization algorithm unit is used to iteratively optimize and solve the joint objective function based on the sensitive parameters using a hybrid complex evolutionary algorithm; The iterative convergence verification unit is used to determine whether the optimization process meets the preset convergence conditions.

Triggering conditions include: new UAV patrol data being added to the database, ground monitoring data reaching a preset time period, monitoring data triggering pollution anomaly warnings, or watershed land use data updates.

[0013] Preferably, the joint objective function includes a time-dimensional objective function and a spatial-dimensional objective function; wherein, the time-dimensional objective function is based on water quality and hydrological benchmark data and is constructed using the Nash-Sutcliffe efficiency coefficient; the spatial-dimensional objective function is based on water quality spatial distribution data and is constructed using structural similarity and average relative error.

[0014] Preferably, in the intelligent optimization algorithm unit, the process of iteratively optimizing and solving the joint objective function using a hybrid complex evolutionary algorithm includes: Determine the physical upper and lower limits of each sensitive parameter, and use the Latin hypercube sampling method to generate multiple sample points in the parameter space.

The pollution source tracing unit is used to trace pollution sources by combining reverse confluence tracing with sub-basin contribution rate inversion. The pollution load calculation unit is used to calculate the total pollution load of the basin and the pollution contribution rate of each sub-basin based on the distributed simulation results of the distributed hydrological and water quality mechanism model of the small watershed. The early warning information release unit is used to generate standardized early warning reports and push them to the visualization decision-making module based on the pollution event identification results, pollution diffusion simulation results, pollution source tracing results, and the calculation results of the total pollution load of the watershed and the pollution contribution rate of each sub-watershed.

[0016] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the present invention are as follows: Spatial monitoring coverage has been significantly improved. The use of UAV-based area monitoring has increased the effective monitoring coverage of the watershed from less than 5% at a single point to 100% of the entire basin, enabling complete identification of blind spots such as tributaries, reservoir bays, and hidden sewage outlets, fundamentally solving the problem of missing spatial information. Model calibration accuracy has been greatly improved. The use of dual-target calibration with ground-based time-series data and UAV spatial data has significantly improved the fitting coefficient of determination R0 for key water quality indicators (total phosphorus, total nitrogen, and ammonia nitrogen) in the SWAT model. 2 The efficiency has been improved from 0.55-0.65 to over 0.80, significantly reducing the "different parameters, same effect" phenomenon and making the internal process simulation more realistic. Parameter adaptive updates enhance long-term prediction stability. New monitoring data automatically triggers parameter fine-tuning, ensuring that the prediction error increase is less than 5% after more than 12 months of continuous model operation, far superior to traditional static models (which typically have an error increase of >20%), significantly improving long-term prediction reliability. Pollution early warning and source tracing efficiency has been significantly improved. Combining real-time anomaly identification by drones with rapid model simulation, the time from pollution detection to early warning output has been shortened from the traditional 2-4 hours to less than 10 minutes, and the accuracy of pollution source location has increased from below 60% to over 90%.

[0017] Pollution load calculation is more accurate. The fusion of point and area data reduces the calculation error of sub-basin pollution contribution rates from ±25% to within ±10%, accurately identifying the contribution proportions of agricultural non-point sources, domestic sources, and livestock sources. Unified fusion of multi-source data enhances the system's intelligence level. Automatic cleaning, registration, and assimilation of multi-source data reduce manual intervention workload by more than 70%, achieving adaptive intelligent operation that "learns as it monitors and becomes more accurate with use."

[0018] Reduce monitoring and maintenance costs. Periodic drone patrols replace a large number of manual inspections, reducing watershed monitoring labor costs by 40%–60% and significantly reducing long-term maintenance investment. Improve the efficiency of governance fund utilization. Precise source tracing and load accounting enhance the targeting of governance projects, reducing governance fund waste by more than 30% and avoiding extensive investment across the entire region. Extend the effective lifespan of models. Adaptive updates allow models to be built once and used for a long time without frequent recalibration, saving modeling costs and time. Enhance water environment supervision capabilities. Enable early detection, early warning, and early treatment of pollution in small watersheds, reduce the risk of sudden pollution incidents, and ensure drinking water safety and aquatic ecological health.

[0019] Supporting scientific and precise pollution control. Providing quantifiable, verifiable, and visualized scientific evidence for watershed planning, governance scheme evaluation, and long-term management, promoting the transformation of water environment governance from "experience-based governance" to "precision and intelligent governance." Highly scalable and with significant industry demonstration value. The solution is applicable to various small watersheds with agricultural non-point source pollution, watersheds in urban-rural fringe areas, and drinking water source watersheds, and can be rapidly replicated and promoted to improve the overall level of regional water environment management.

It consists of fixed automatic water quality monitoring stations, flow and water level monitoring equipment, manual sampling points, and data acquisition and transmission units. Deployed at watershed outlets, tributary confluences, downstream of key pollution sources, and sensitive water areas, the monitoring data is wirelessly transmitted in real-time to the multi-source data management module. It is used to acquire continuous, high-precision time-series data on pH, COD, ammonia nitrogen, total phosphorus, total nitrogen, flow rate, and water level, providing a time-dimensional benchmark for model calibration. The core function is to acquire continuous, high-precision time-series water quality and hydrological benchmark data to provide a time-dimensional calibration basis for the model. The process is divided into three core stages: (1) Monitoring point layout and data collection: Following the "Water Environment Monitoring Standard" SL219, sampling points were set up, and in-situ sensors collected seven core parameters: pH, COD, ammonia nitrogen, total phosphorus, total nitrogen, flow rate, and water level. The sampling frequency was once every 5 minutes for hydrological parameters and once every 15 minutes for water quality parameters. Simultaneously, manual sampling points were set up, and laboratory analysis was carried out once a month according to national standard methods for sensor calibration.

A further implementation involves the joint objective function comprising a time-dimensional objective function and a spatial-dimensional objective function. The time-dimensional objective function is constructed based on water quality and hydrological benchmark data using the Nash-Sutcliffe efficiency coefficient; the spatial-dimensional objective function is constructed based on water quality spatial distribution data using structural similarity and average relative error. The calculation formula is as follows: , In the formula: F is the joint objective function, and the smaller the value, the higher the simulation accuracy of the watershed hydrological and water quality processes; The time target weight (default 0.6) represents the weight of ground-based monitoring time-series water quality and hydrological data in the calibration process; The spatial target weight (default 0.4) represents the weight of the spatial distribution data of water quality monitored by UAVs in the calibration process. The objective function is defined by the time dimension. The objective function is the spatial dimension.

[0062] Time dimension objective function Based on ground-based time-series data, and using the Nash-Sutcliffe efficiency coefficient (NSE) as the core, the following is constructed: , , In the formula: The weighted average of flow rate and Nash-Sutcliffe efficiency coefficients for core water quality indicators (COD, ammonia nitrogen, total phosphorus, and total nitrogen) is given. The concentration of water quality indicators (such as total phosphorus mg / L, ammonia nitrogen mg / L) or flow rate value measured by the ground monitoring station at time i. ); The corresponding water quality index concentration or flow rate value output by the SWAT model at time i; NSE is the mean of the measured sequence; n is the number of samples in the time series; the closer NSE is to 1, the better the time fit. The closer it is to 0.

[0063] , , , In the formula: SSIM represents the structural similarity between the simulated and UAV-inverted raster (values ​​[0,1], the closer to 1, the higher the similarity), where: To simulate the mean values ​​of water quality indicators (suspended solids (SS), chlorophyll a) grids, This represents the mean value of the corresponding water quality index grid retrieved by the drone; , This represents the standard deviation of the corresponding raster. Let be the covariance of the two. To avoid a constant with a denominator of 0; MRE is the average relative error between the simulation and the UAV-derived water quality grid; a smaller value indicates higher spatial simulation accuracy, and m is the total number of grid cells. Let be the simulated water quality index concentration of the j-th grid; The water quality is retrieved by the UAV for the j-th grid.

[0064] The intelligent optimization algorithm unit is used to iteratively optimize and solve the joint objective function based on sensitive parameters using a hybrid complex evolutionary algorithm. A further implementation method involves the following process within the intelligent optimization algorithm unit: [Details of the iterative optimization and solution process using the hybrid complex evolutionary algorithm for the joint objective function are provided.] The physical upper and lower limits of each sensitive parameter are determined, and multiple sample points are generated in the parameter space using the Latin hypercube sampling method. Each sample point corresponds to a set of model parameter combinations. Substituting each sample point into the SWAT model, the daily watershed flow, ammonia nitrogen, total phosphorus, total nitrogen concentration, sediment load, and other results can be output, and then the corresponding joint objective function value F can be calculated.

[0065] The sample points are sorted according to the joint objective function value, and then divided into multiple composites, each containing the same number of sample points. Specifically, s sample points are sorted in ascending order of the joint objective function value F, where a smaller F indicates higher accuracy in water quality simulation. The sorted sample points are then divided into p composites, each containing m sample points, satisfying s = p × m. By performing parallel evolution of the composites, the algorithm's search efficiency is improved while ensuring full coverage of the water quality parameter space.

[0066] Evolutionary operations are performed independently on each complex, including reflection, expansion, contraction, and compression steps; specifically: Reflection: For the worst point within the complex (with the largest F value and the largest water quality simulation error), a reflection point is generated along the centroid direction of the complex. The objective function value of the reflection point is calculated. If the reflection point is better than the worst point, it is retained.

[0067] Expansion: If the reflection point is better than the optimal point within the complex shape, it is further expanded along the reflection direction to generate an expansion point. If the expansion point is better, the reflection point is replaced.

[0068] Contraction: If the reflection point is not better than the worst point, perform a contraction operation in the opposite direction to generate a contraction point.

[0069] Compression: If the shrinkage point still does not improve, compress all points in the complex except the optimal point towards the optimal point to generate a new sample set.

[0070] All sample points evolved from the composites are remixed, reordered according to the objective function value, and divided into p new composites. This breaks down the information barriers between composites, enables global sharing of excellent parameter samples, avoids local optima, and ensures that the algorithm can find a globally optimal parameter set that balances water quality time series fitting and spatial distribution simulation.

[0071] Repeat the complex evolution and shuffling steps until the preset convergence condition of the iterative convergence verification unit is met, and output the optimal parameter set.

[0072] The iterative convergence verification unit is used to determine whether the optimization process meets the preset convergence conditions. Specifically, the optimal sample result of the current iteration is input into the iterative convergence verification unit. If the following three convergence criteria bound to water quality are met simultaneously, the iteration stops; otherwise, it returns to the composite evolution and continues iterating: The objective function value changes less than 100 times in 100 consecutive iterations. .

[0073] Flow rate NSE ≥ 0.75, core water quality indicators (ammonia nitrogen, total phosphorus, total nitrogen) NSE ≥ 0.65, coefficient of determination R 2 ≥0.8.

[0074] Spatial distribution of water quality: SSIM≥0.75, MRE≤20%.

[0075] The optimal parameter set after convergence is output and written back to the SWAT model engine module to complete the calibration; at the same time, the optimal parameter set is stored as the initial value in the parameter update trigger unit for subsequent adaptive incremental fine-tuning.

[0076] Optionally, when the hybrid complex evolutionary algorithm fails to converge within a preset number of iterations or when there are multimodal solutions in the parameter space, the adaptive parameter optimization module calls the particle swarm optimization algorithm (PSO) as a secondary search strategy, using the current optimal parameter set as the initial particle center, to perform a local supplementary search for sensitive parameters; if PSO obtains a smaller joint objective function value, the optimal parameter set is updated; otherwise, the result of the hybrid complex evolutionary algorithm is retained.

[0077] The parameter update trigger unit is used to automatically trigger model parameter fine-tuning when new monitoring data is added to the database or when preset conditions are met. Trigger conditions include: adding new UAV patrol data to the database, ground monitoring data reaching a preset time period (7-day weekly update, 30-day monthly update), and monitoring data triggering pollution anomaly warnings or watershed land use data updates.

[0078] Using the current optimal parameter set as the initial value, incremental iterative optimization is adopted, with only minor parameter fine-tuning. The maximum number of iterations is 500 to ensure update efficiency and achieve adaptive evolution of the model, making it more accurate with use.

[0079] The early warning and source tracing module is used to identify pollution anomalies, simulate pollution diffusion processes, and trace pollution sources based on a small watershed distributed hydrological and water quality mechanism model, thereby obtaining early warning and tracing results. A further implementation method is that the early warning and source tracing module includes: The pollution anomaly detection unit is used to identify pollution events based on a triple-discrimination method of national standard thresholds, temporal abrupt changes, and spatial anomalies; specifically: National standard threshold discrimination: Based on the "Surface Water Environmental Quality Standard" GB3838, if C i >C limit An early warning will be triggered immediately, and the warning will be divided into four levels according to the multiple of the exceedance.

[0080] Time-series abrupt change detection: The sliding window Welch test is used to identify abrupt changes in water quality concentration. The formula is as follows: , In the formula: C_pre, s_pre, and n_pre represent the mean, standard deviation, and sample size of the concentration series in the preceding window, respectively; C_cur, s_cur, and n_cur represent the mean, standard deviation, and sample size of the concentration series in the current window, respectively. C_pre and C_cur are both the mean of the concentration series, but they correspond to different time windows and have different meanings, distinguished by the subscripts pre and cur. When the statistic T_w is greater than the critical value corresponding to the significance level α=0.05... When this occurs, it is identified as a mutation and an early warning is triggered.

[0081] Spatial anomaly detection: The Local Anomaly Factor (LOF) algorithm is used to identify pollution patches in UAV imagery. The formula is:

[0085] Simulation output: Outputs the location, concentration, range of influence, arrival time and peak concentration of downstream sensitive targets at time steps of 10min, 30min, 1h, 2h, 6h and 24h.

[0086] The pollution source tracing unit is used to trace pollution sources using a combination of reverse confluence tracing and sub-basin contribution rate inversion. Reverse confluence time tracing: calculates the confluence time of the pollution plume from the abnormal cross-section, tracing the emission time and upstream catchment area. Formula: T_tr = Σ(L_r / v_r), In the formula: T_tr is the confluence time, L_r is the length of the r-th segment of the river, v_r is the average flow velocity of the r-th segment of the river, and r is the segment number on the reverse tracing path.

[0087] Sub-basin pollution source location: Based on the ranking of pollution contribution rates in sub-basins, the core pollution sources are located. Contribution rate formula: CR_h = Load_h / Load_out × 100%, In the formula: CR_h is the pollution contribution rate of the h-th sub-basin, Load_h is the pollution load output of the h-th sub-basin, Load_out is the total pollution load at the basin outlet, and h is the sub-basin number; combined with land use type, the pollution source type (agricultural non-point source, domestic source, livestock and poultry source, industrial point source) is identified.

[0088] The pollution load calculation unit is used to calculate the total pollution load of the watershed and the pollution contribution rate of each sub-watershed based on the distributed simulation results of the small watershed distributed hydrological and water quality mechanism model. Specifically, it calculates the total pollution load of the watershed and the load by type and region. The core formula is as follows: , , In the formula: For total pollution load, For point source load, For area source load, , , These are agricultural planting, livestock and poultry breeding, and rural domestic non-point source loads, respectively.

[0101] (4) Prediction result output unit: Output water quality trend curves, load change bar charts, spatial distribution maps, and treatment effect evaluation tables under different scenarios, and push them to the visualization decision-making module.

[0102] The visualization decision-making module displays early warning and tracing results, as well as water quality prediction results. It adopts a WebGIS (Web Geographic Information System) architecture and includes a single-map display unit, a data query unit, and a report output unit. It aggregates results from all modules and presents monitoring data, simulation results, early warning information, source tracing conclusions, and long-term prediction scenarios in a visual interface, providing support for management decision-making.

[0103] Specifically, it adopts a B / S architecture, which is divided into four layers: WebGIS map engine layer, data visualization layer, business function layer, and user interaction layer. It brings together the results of all modules to provide visual support for management decisions.

[0104] (1) WebGIS map engine layer: It adopts the Leaflet / ArcGIS API for JavaScript map engine, loads vector layers such as CGCS2000 coordinate system base map, watershed boundaries, river networks, sub-watersheds, and monitoring points, supports raster layer overlay, and realizes basic functions such as map zooming, panning, querying, and measurement.

[0111] In summary, the system design of this invention achieves the following: Spatial monitoring coverage has been significantly improved. By adopting unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) area monitoring, the effective monitoring coverage of the watershed has been increased from the traditional single-point <5% to 100% of the entire basin. It can completely identify blind spots such as tributaries, reservoir bays, and hidden sewage outlets, and the problem of missing spatial information has been fundamentally solved.

[0112] The model calibration accuracy has been significantly improved. Dual-target calibration using ground-based time-series data and UAV spatial data has greatly improved the fitting coefficient of determination R0 for key water quality indicators (total phosphorus, total nitrogen, and ammonia nitrogen) in the SWAT model. 2 The value was increased from 0.55-0.65 to over 0.80, significantly reducing the "different parameters have the same effect" phenomenon and making the internal process simulation more realistic.

[0113] Parameters are updated adaptively, enhancing long-term prediction stability. New monitoring data automatically triggers parameter fine-tuning, ensuring that the prediction error increase is less than 5% after more than 12 months of continuous operation, which is far superior to traditional static models (error increase is usually >20%), significantly improving the reliability of long-term predictions.

[0114] The efficiency of pollution early warning and source tracing has been significantly improved. By combining real-time anomaly identification by drones with rapid model simulation, the time from pollution detection to early warning output has been shortened from the traditional 2-4 hours to less than 10 minutes, and the accuracy of pollution source location has increased from below 60% to over 90%.

[0115] Pollution load calculation is more accurate. The integration of point and area data reduces the calculation error of pollution contribution rate of sub-basins from ±25% to within ±10%, and can accurately identify the contribution ratio of agricultural non-point sources, domestic sources and livestock sources.

[0116] Unified fusion of multi-source data enhances the system's intelligence level. Automatic cleaning, registration, and assimilation of multi-source data reduce manual intervention workload by over 70%, achieving adaptive intelligent operation that "learns through monitoring and becomes more accurate with use."

[0117] Reduce monitoring and maintenance costs. Periodic drone patrols replace a large number of manual inspections, reducing the labor costs of watershed monitoring by 40% to 60% and significantly reducing long-term maintenance investment.

[0118] Improve the efficiency of governance funds. Precise source tracing and load accounting enhance the targeting of governance projects, reduce waste of governance funds by more than 30%, and avoid extensive investment across the entire region.

[0119] Extend the effective lifespan of the model. Adaptive updates allow the model to be used for a long time after a single build, eliminating the need for frequent recalibration and saving modeling costs and time.

[0120] Enhance water environment supervision capabilities. Achieve early detection, early warning, and early response to pollution in small watersheds, reduce the risk of sudden pollution incidents, and safeguard drinking water safety and aquatic ecosystem health.

[0121] Support scientific and precise pollution control. Provide quantifiable, verifiable, and visualized scientific evidence for watershed planning, governance scheme evaluation, and long-term management, and promote the transformation of water environment governance from "experience-based governance" to "precise and intelligent governance".

[0122] It is highly scalable and has significant industry demonstration value. The solution is applicable to various small watersheds with agricultural non-point source pollution, watersheds in urban-rural fringe areas, and watersheds near drinking water sources. It can be quickly replicated and promoted to improve the overall management level of regional water environment.
