This application relates to methods, apparatus, equipment, and media for identifying
dust storm areas based on
satellite data, belonging to the field of
environmental monitoring technology. The method includes: collecting
satellite image data of the target area, and a pixel
database including dust, cloud, and clear-
sky surface labels; extracting the spectral values of pixels in each channel that spatiotemporally match the pixel data of each
label in the
satellite image, and calculating spectral feature vectors; constructing a
training set using the spectral feature vectors and corresponding labels, training a classification model, calculating the spectral feature vectors of the
satellite image, inputting them into the classification model, and outputting preliminary classification results; performing
superpixel segmentation processing on the
satellite image; identifying clear-
sky dust storm areas and cloud-covered areas for each superpixel based on the preliminary classification results; calculating the optical thickness of dust storms under clouds in cloud-covered areas, and combining this with ground
monitoring data and meteorological data for fusion judgment to identify
dust storm areas under clouds; and predicting the potential probability of dust
storm occurrence based on meteorological and surface factors of the target area.
