Abstract

According to the monitoring requirements of the near-ground environment in the desert fringe area, a two-level data fusion algorithm based on multi-sensor collected data is designed. Firstly, the Kalman filtering algorithm is adopted to locally fuse the data collected by the same type of sensors, effectively suppressing noise and random errors, and improving the accuracy and stability of single-parameter measurement. Then, the BP neural network is utilized to globally fuse and nonlinearly model the multi-source heterogeneous environmental parameters, achieving the desertification level evaluation. Simulation experiments show that the Kalman filter can effectively reduce data fluctuations and measurement errors, while the neural network model performs well in the identification of non-desertification and severe desertification levels, with room for improvement in overall classification accuracy. This method enhances the reliability of the monitoring system through multi-sensor information fusion, providing an effective technical solution for dynamic assessment and early warning of desertification.
