The invention discloses a nuclear security
inspection method and
system based on unmanned aerial vehicles, and relates to the field of
radiation environment monitoring, and the method comprises the following steps: an unmanned aerial vehicle formation inspects according to a planned flight path; acquiring
gamma dose rate and position data, uploading the data to an upper computer for preprocessing, generating a three-dimensional
point cloud picture, and performing visual analysis; identifying
gamma dose rate hot spots by using a three-dimensional
radiation abnormal hot spot
search algorithm, performing preliminary positioning in a three-dimensional space, and marking coordinates and
gamma dose rate values of the gamma
dose rate hot spots; sending the preliminarily determined position of the
radioactive source to the unmanned aerial vehicle, scanning by the unmanned aerial vehicle to obtain an accurate value, transmitting the accurate value to the upper computer, and obtaining an accurate position by using a nonlinear least square method; the unmanned aerial vehicle receives the position information, locks a suspicious target carrying a
radioactive source through an airborne target re-
identification system, and gives an alarm; uploading the gamma
dose rate information, the position information and the target information to a visual terminal interface to form track information; and repeating the steps, and locking the
radiation anomaly region and the suspicious target. According to the invention, efficient and accurate
technical support is provided for
nuclear environment safety.
