The invention relates to a method for monitoring
river runoff through a remote-sensing hydrologic
station. The method comprises the steps of 1, selecting key
fluvial sections lacking measuring stationareas; 2, conducting low-altitude
remote sensing retrieval on the information of the
fluvial sections lacking the measuring
station areas; conducting real-time
drone control flight on monitoring points of the
fluvial sections selected in step 1, preprocessing the obtained data, extracting
earth surface information, obtaining the longitudinal section gradient, the cross section area and the watersurface width of the fluvial sections on this basis, combining
ground water level monitoring and
underwater topographic surveying and mapping, and utilizing a manning formula for deduction to solve the flow of the monitored section. The method has the advantages that
satellite remote sensing and low-altitude
remote sensing are coupled, each other's advantages are complemented, and the blank of thelack of hydrologic data is filled up; during emergency management, the real-time river channel segment width is obtained, the
river runoff is calculated, the
river runoff data is reported in real time, and the runoff monitoring precision is smaller than 8%; the problem that hydrometric stations of an
arid region are scarce, and cannot
handle flood,
water pollution and other emergency events is solved.
