Abstract

With the continuous improvement of 3D spatial data acquisition and data processing methods, it brings great convenience for data acquisition and analysis of power line inspection. This paper introduces the method composition and working principle of power corridor visualization technology for UAV line inspection data, and carries out visualization processing through data acquisition level image denoising, so as to improve the accuracy of UAV line inspection and ensure the safety of power system. Taking a high-voltage line inspection project as an example, this paper analyzes the comprehensive application effect of power corridor visualization method based on UAV line inspection data through operation process and data processing, and proves that the accuracy of power corridor visualization method based on UAV line inspection data is significantly higher, which fully meets the research requirements.
