[0033] A preferred embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to the accompanying drawings. , components with the same reference numerals have the same or similar configurations.

[0034] (First embodiment) FIG. 1 shows an observation system 10 according to a first embodiment. The same applies to the first and second embodiments.

[0035] The observation system 10 includes an observation data processing device 101 and artificial satellites 201, 202, and 203. , and an observation data receiving device R.

[0036] In the observation system 10, a plurality of satellites including artificial satellites 201, 202, and 203 are used to observe the earth. The observation data obtained by observing the spherical surface O is transmitted to the observation data receiving device R. Observation conditions, which indicate the environment in which the data was observed, are associated with or attached to the observation data. The observation data may be transmitted to the observation data receiving device R in such a manner that the observation data is included in the observation data processing device 10. 1 receives observation data from the observation data receiving device R and performs information processing on the observation data. The observation system 10 is configured to observe the observation data from the satellites 201 and 202. As shown in Figure 02,203, it will be deployed in space as a satellite capable of acquiring observation data. The satellites that collect the data are geostationary satellites. The flying object may be an aircraft, a helicopter, a drone, or the like. Any device capable of being positioned above the Earth's atmosphere may be used.

[0037] In the observation system 10, the observation data observed by the artificial satellites 201, 202, and 203 are The data may be observed based on different observation methods, or may be observed based on a common observation method. The data may be data observed at a given time.

[0038] The observation method is, for example, a method using SAR signals (SAR method), and the observation data is Microwaves (electromagnetic waves) are irradiated to the object of observation from a satellite equipped with a radar device. The signal corresponds to the electromagnetic waves reflected by the object being measured. The SAR data is, for example, processed by the observation data processing device 101 to become a SAR image. The following visualization process is performed on the observed SAR data. There is also a second level of SAR data that has been range-compressed and multi-look azimuth-compressed. The second level of SAR data provides a geometrically corrected visualization of the SAR image. Other SAR data can be obtained by applying range pressure to the observed SAR data. There is also a third level of SAR data that is compressed, single-look azimuth compressed and orthorectified. By adding orthorectification, the SAR image can be overlaid with the optical image described below. can be obtained.

[0039] Other observation methods include those that use optical data obtained using optical sensors (optical methods). Optical data is obtained by sensors that observe light with wavelengths in the visible light range or near infrared range. Optical data is based on the light produced when sunlight is reflected off the Earth's surface. This is simple data.

[0040] Another observation method is to use meteorological data obtained using an infrared sensor. Meteorological data is obtained by observing infrared radiation emitted by clouds, the earth's surface, and the atmosphere. This is used to generate an infrared image or a water vapor image. The optical data and meteorological data are explained separately according to the difference in the wavelength ranges used. There are.

[0041] The generation of integrated data by the observation data processing device 101 will be described with reference to FIG. In FIG. 2, each of the artificial satellites 201, 202, and 203 has a different observation method. The following describes an example in which observation is performed based on the method 1, method 2, or method 3. For example, method 1 uses SAR data, and method 2 uses optical data. Method 1 is a method using meteorological data, and method 2 is a method using meteorological data.

[0042] The artificial satellite 201 observes an observation area at a certain time T1 on the time axis T and collects observation data. The observation data D11 is transmitted to the observation data processing device 101, and The data processing device 101 generates integrated data ID1 based on the observation data D11.

[0043] After that, the artificial satellite 202 observes the observation data D22 at a certain time T2 on the time axis T. The observation data D22 is transmitted to the observation data processing device 101. The device 101 is integrated data based on previously observed observation data D11 and observation data D22. Generate ID2.

[0044] The integrated data ID2 is the observation data based on the method 1 at time T1 and the The data is based on the observation data based on the method 2 and the most recent observation data in the observation area at time T2. This data contains valuable information.

[0045] The artificial satellite 203 observes observation data D33 at a certain time T3 on the time axis T. The observation data D33 is transmitted to the observation data processing device 101. is an integrated data set based on the previously observed data D11, D22, and D33. The integrated data ID3 is the observation data based on the method 1 at time T1. , the observation data based on method 2 at time T2, and the observation data based on method 3 at time T3 The data is based on observation data and contains the most recent information on the observation area at time T3. It is.

[0046] After that, at time T4, the artificial satellite 201 observes the same area as that observed at time T1. The satellite 201 observes the observation area and obtains observation data D14. The time from one observation to the next is determined, for example, by the orbit of the artificial satellite 201. The observation data D14 is transmitted to the observation data processing device 101. 1 generates integrated data ID4 based on observation data D14. Observation data processing device 101 The observation data D11 obtained by the observation by the artificial satellite 201 at the time T1 is newly The obtained observation data D14 is replaced with the integrated data ID 14. 4 is data containing the most recent information of the observation area at time T4.

[0047] Similarly, at time T5, the satellite 202 observes the same area as it observed at time T2. The observation data D25 is obtained by the observation data processing device 10. 1, and the observation data processing device 101 processes the integrated data ID5 based on the observation data D25. The observation data processing device 101 generates the observation The observation data D22 obtained in the previous step was replaced with the newly obtained observation data D25 to create the integrated data. The integrated data ID5 is the most recent information of the observation area at time T5. By integrating the data at each time, the observation data processing device 10 1 is a method for comparing data obtained by observing an observation area using multiple aircraft with that obtained by a single aircraft. It can be generated more frequently than observed.

[0048] The information included in the integrated data is the time when the observation data on which each piece of information is based was observed. The information in the consolidated data is related and can be sorted based on time. For example, in integrated data ID5, the observation observed at time T3 is Data D33, observation data D14 observed at time T4, and observation data D14 observed at time T5 It is possible to order the data D25. Note that the observation data does not include time information. The integrated data may be sorted in the order of acquisition. The observation data is generated in a way that allows for sorting in chronological order. By using the integrated data, it is possible to detect changes in the observation area more accurately. In addition, the integrated data does not necessarily mean that the observation data can be rearranged in chronological order. The format of the integrated data may be determined appropriately depending on the purpose of the integrated data. Can be set.

[0049] Here, the data to be integrated may be the signals themselves from each satellite, or may be the data based on each signal. The image data may be generated based on the image data. In this case, each image data is input to the meta-information output model as a channel. The data to be integrated is obtained from signals or image data from each satellite. In addition, the signals, image data, or meta information from each satellite may be, for example, For example, the simulation process is carried out by an information processing device based on observation data. In other words, the data included in the integrated data may be information generated by observation data. Any information based on the above will suffice.

[0050] The observation data processing device 101 generates integrated data each time it acquires observation data from each satellite. This will update the integrated data to include the latest observations for the observation area. For example, if a change occurs in the observation area between time T2 and time T5, the satellite 20 If only 2 is used, the change will not appear in the observation data until time T5. However, Observation data D33 from satellite 203 at time T3 and observation data D34 from satellite 201 at time T4 From the observation data D14, the integrated data is generated as integrated data ID3, ID4. The integrated data ID3 and ID4 contain the data that occurred in the observation area between time T2 and time T5. The changes occurring in the observation area are also reflected in the integrated data ID3 and ID4. By analyzing integrated data based on observation data from multiple satellites, It will be possible to grasp changes that occur within the observation interval of a single satellite in a timely manner. An event that prevents the satellite 202 from observing the observation area at time T5, such as bad weather Even if an event occurs, the data will be collected using the SAR method, which is not affected by weather. By analyzing the generated integrated data, it becomes possible to understand changes in the observation area.

[0051] The observation data processing device 101 updates data on the observation area at shorter time intervals. This allows the analysis to be applied to tasks that require real-time performance. One example of the task is to measure NDVI, a vegetation index, using satellites, etc. (Normalized Difference Vegetation Index) is measured. While VI measurements can be made accurately, optical data are limited to daytime observations and are subject to cloud cover. There are restrictions on time and weather, such as not being able to observe due to weather conditions. By measuring NDVI using integrated data including R data, the number of measurements can be increased, This can improve real-time performance.

[0052] In addition, since the integrated data is data that integrates information from each satellite, for example, When using a satellite to obtain meta-information and analyze the observation area, the information from each satellite is learned individually. This enables more frequent and multifaceted analysis than when inputting the data into a learning model.

[0053] In addition, observation systems that use data from a single satellite may be converted to systems that use data from other satellites. It is also possible to use the system to generate integrated data and enable analysis. become.

[0054] Each unit of the observation data processing device 101 will be described. A block diagram of a data processing device 101 is shown. The observation data processing device 101 includes a communication unit 1 011, a memory unit 1012, an observation data acquisition unit 1013, an integrated data generation unit 1014, and The observation data processing device 101 includes a meta information acquisition unit 1015. Each part of the device 101 is stored in a storage device in an information processing device such as a personal computer. This can be realized by a processor executing the program.

[0055] The communication unit 1011 communicates with the observation data processing device 101 and external devices including the observation data receiving device R. The observation data processing device 101 controls communication between the observation data processing device and the information processing device. The communication unit 1011 may acquire the observation data from an information processing device such as a server that records the , and controls communications with other information processing terminals.

[0056] The memory unit 1012 stores various information used in processing by the observation data processing device 101. The storage unit 1012 stores a meta information output model 10121.

[0057] The meta information output model 10121 will be described with reference to Fig. 4. 10121 is a system that inputs the integrated data obtained from observations of the observation area, and then converts the meta information of the observation area into the It is a learning model that outputs information.

[0058] The meta information output model 10121 is trained using the training data LD1 as training data. The learning data LD1 is based on multiple learning observation data obtained by observing the observation area. It includes a set of integrated learning data and meta-information MD0 corresponding to the integrated learning data. The learning model 10212 is trained using the integrated learning data as input and the meta-information MD0 as output. do.

[0059] Meta information MD0 has various items depending on the object of observation. The meta information for the moving object includes information on the moving path of the moving object. The change in SAR data and the shift in optical images due to the change in the interference of reflected electromagnetic waves caused by the It is obtained from the change in position of a moving object.

[0060] If flooded areas during a disaster are the subject of observation, the meta-information may be information on the extent of the flooded areas. In addition, as meta-information for managing agricultural crops, NDVI, which indicates the growth rate of crops, etc. The degree of crop growth can be calculated based on the backscatter coefficient of SAR data and the actual observation data. Correlations calculated based on the growth of the crops and color changes in optical data The crop temperature is estimated based on the spectral reflectance characteristics. In this case, the meta-information includes the actual measured crop temperature. Height information may also be included.

[0061] In the detection of buildings, information about new buildings may be used as meta information. Information on new buildings is based on the backscatter coefficients of SAR data and the actual observed new buildings.
