A Study on Intelligent Recognition Method of High-voltage Line Faults in Mountainous Areas Based on UAV Aerial Photography

Abstract

The high-altitude high-voltage line is an important part of the power grid system, which plays an important role in the stable operation of the entire power grid. High-altitude high-voltage lines usually cross various complex terrains such as mountains, rivers, and hills, and suffer from severe weather conditions for a long time. And they are prone to various forms of line failures, such as broken strands, damaged insulators, and suspension of foreign objects. With the rapid development of economy and technology, UAV aerial photography has become an important development direction in the field of aviation aerial photography due to its own characteristics of lightness, high efficiency, convenience, low energy consumption, and clear images, which fully meets the application needs of modern society. Embedding the control program on the UAV platform can realize the intelligence of aerial photography, thereby resolving the inherent disadvantages of the original aerial photography technology, and can especially adapt to the application scenarios that cannot be collected manually due to the complex terrain.
