Smart city underground pipelines
Key innovations
The innovation of this technology lies in using fiber-optic gyroscopes to solve the problem of precise spatial positioning of concealed and non-metallic underground pipelines. Through in-pipeline measurement and optimization algorithms, geodetic coordinates are obtained and the management level of underground pipelines in smart cities is improved.
Potential economic benefits
Reduce pipeline accidents and maintenance costs, improve urban management and disaster prevention efficiency, promote the development of smart cities, and produce significant economic benefits.
Potential climate benefits
By accurately positioning underground pipelines, damage and leaks are reduced, water, electricity and other resources are saved, energy and material consumption for maintenance, construction and emergency repair are reduced, and indirect carbon emission reduction is achieved.

Solution details

The State Council's guidance on promoting the construction of urban underground comprehensive pipe corridors has promoted the construction of a comprehensive information system for underground pipelines, important infrastructure for urban operation. Building a complete urban underground pipeline system, so that the underground pipeline construction and management level can adapt to the needs of economic and social development, and greatly improving emergency and disaster prevention capabilities is an urgent task facing smart cities and urban management "Internet +". Establishing a comprehensive pipeline management information system with basic information such as the scale, location relationship, property rights ownership, and operating life of underground pipelines has many key issues to be solved. Measuring and determining the location and location relationship of underground pipelines is one of the important issues. Based on the characteristics of concealed engineering and non-metallization of underground pipelines, the project studies "fiber-optic gyroscope-based spatial positioning measurement technology for underground pipelines", and applies a fiber-optic gyroscope-based positioning system to determine the spatial position of underground pipelines through fixed-point measurement into the interior of the pipeline. Geodetic coordinates or relative coordinates of the position, and obtains data on the spatial position and positional relationship of underground pipelines; studies the construction of a fiber-optic gyroscope-based underground pipeline spatial positioning system; Establish a fiber-optic gyroscope solution method and a geographical coordinate calculation method based on three-dimensional space transformation; establish an algorithm for correcting non-orthogonal and non-coincident three-dimensional coordinate axes through optimization techniques such as variable rotation method, simplex method, and dynamic planning; Form a new technology for positioning and measuring underground pipelines in space. Based on the needs of urban development, the project solves key issues in the construction of an integrated information system for underground pipelines for smart cities and urban management "Internet +". It has good practical significance and social and economic benefits.
