FLOODING PREDICTION DEVICE, FLOODING PREDICTION SYSTEM, AND FLOODING PREDICTION METHOD - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240118077 titled 'FLOODING PREDICTION DEVICE, FLOODING PREDICTION SYSTEM, AND FLOODING PREDICTION METHOD
Simplified Explanation
The purpose of the present disclosure is to provide a flooding prediction device that accurately predicts the occurrence of flooding of a river. The flooding prediction device comprises at least one processor configured to acquire measurement data indicating the result of measurement based on irradiation laser light emitted and radiated onto a measurement target region including the water surface part of a river, and reflection laser light reflected by the region and received by the coherent light sensing device, generate a three-dimensional point group model of the measurement target region by using the measurement data, generate water surface state information indicating the state of the water surface part in the measurement target region by using the measurement data and the three-dimensional point group model, and predict the occurrence of flooding of the river by using the water surface state information.
- Acquires measurement data based on laser light emitted and reflected onto a measurement target region.
- Generates a three-dimensional point group model of the measurement target region.
- Generates water surface state information based on the measurement data and the three-dimensional point group model.
- Predicts the occurrence of flooding of the river using the water surface state information.
