利用机载LiDAR数据提取与分析地裂缝

机载激光扫描可获取植被茂密地区的数字地形模型(DTM),但将其用于茂密植被覆盖区地裂缝提取方法的研究还不多见。以湖南冷水江市浪石滩为试验区,基于机载Li DAR的激光点云数据,研究了植被覆盖区地裂缝的提取方法,分析了地裂缝的微地貌特征。首先对离散的三维激光点云数据依次进行基于不规则三角网滤波、高程滤波及回波信息强度滤波提取地面点,以保留完整的微地貌微特征;然后构建不规则三角网,反距离加权内插生成数字高程模型(DEM),提取地裂缝识别参数,同时基于最小曲率对地裂缝进行线性探测,提取地裂缝的长度信息,且利用地裂缝剖面信息分析其微特征,结合识别参数分析地裂缝的稳定性。研究结果表明:利用机载Li DAR点云数据提取的地裂缝识别参数,能够确定地裂缝的位置、坡度坡向、长度和深度信息,有助于判定地裂缝的稳定性;在植被较为茂密、地面点密度稀疏的区域,保留一定的低矮植被所提取到的DEM能更好地保留地裂缝的微地貌特征。

Using structure restoration maps to comprehensively identify potential faults and fractures in compressional structures

Faults and fractures of multiple scales are frequently induced and generated in compressional structural system. Comprehensive identification of these potential faults and fractures that cannot be distinguished directly from seismic profile of the complex structures is still an unanswered problem. Based on the compressional structural geometry and kinematics theories as well as the structural interpretation from seismic data, a set of techniques is established for the identification of potential faults and fractures in compressional structures. Firstly, three-dimensional(3D) patterns and characteristics of the faults directly interpreted from seismic profile were illustrated by 3D structural model. Then, the unfolding index maps, the principal structural curvature maps, and tectonic stress field maps were obtained from structural restoration. Moreover, potential faults and fractures in compressional structures were quantitatively identified relying on comprehensive analysis of these three maps. Successful identification of the potential faults and fractures in Mishrif limestone formation and in Asmari dolomite formation of Buzurgan anticline in Iraq demonstrates the applicability and reliability of these techniques.

Intelligent identifi cation method for near-surface ground fi ssures based on seismic data

Taking a study area in Jinzhong Basin in Qixian County,Shanxi Province,as an example,this work performs an intelligent interpretation of ground fissures.On the basis of a complete analysis of the regional geological background in the study area,dip-steering cube operation and median filtering of seismic data were performed using fast Fourier transform to improve the continuity of seismic events and eliminate random noise.A total of 200 stratigraphic continuous sample training points and 500 discontinuous training points were obtained from the processed seismic data.Thereafter,a variety of attributes(coherence,curvature,amplitude,frequency,etc.)were extracted as the input for the multilayer perceptron neural network training.During the training period,the training results were traced by normalized root mean square error(RMSE)and misclassifi cation.The training results showed a downward trend during the training period.The misclassifi cation curve was stable at 0.3,and the normalized RMSE curve was stable at 0.68.When the value of the normalized RMSE curve reached the minimum,the training was terminated,and the training results were extended to the whole data volume to obtain the attribute cube of intelligent ground fi ssure detection.The characteristics of ground fi ssures were analyzed and identifi ed from the sections and slices.A total of 11 ground fissures were finally interpreted.The interpretation results showed that the dip angles were 60°-85°,the fault throws were 0-43 m,and the extension lengths were 300-1,100 m in the whole area.The strike of 73%of the ground fi ssures was consistent with the direction of the regional tectonic settings.Specifi cally,four ground fi ssures coincided with the surface disclosed,and the verifi cation rate reached 100%.In conclusion,the intelligent ground fi ssure detection attribute based on the dip-steering cube is eff ective in predicting the spatial distribution of ground fi ssures.
