  • Method for continuous measurement of river flow based on satellite big data
    Patent number: 11566895
    Abstract: A method for continuous measurement of river flow based on satellite big data is provided. The method includes: determining a river reach to conduct flow measurement, reconstructing a cross section of a river channel based on satellite big data, calculating real-time water levels by coupling data of various types of satellites, and performing flow calculation and compilation. The method solves the difficult problem of river flow measurement or continuous measurement of river flow in uninhabited areas, fills the blank of satellite-based flow measurement according to the principle of river dynamics, and greatly expands the range of river flow measurement.
