Abstract

Abstract The rational allocation of water resources plays an important role in alleviating disparities between supply and demand in areas with water shortages. With the continuous development of modern information technology, the pace of digitization is accelerating. Digital water networks provide a means of technical support, and their application is becoming more extensive. Based on the traditional study of water resource allocation combined with the development of modern information technology, this paper proposes a new operational application model of multi-objective water resource allocation based on a digital water network and applies this model to allocate water resources in the Heihe River basin in Xi'an, Shaanxi Province. First, a topological digital water network is constructed based on the connectivity criterion of water systems, and a cooperative configuration model with social, economic and ecological objectives is established. Second, the model and its solution method are componentized, and the water resource allocation business system is constructed based on the comprehensive integration platform to integrate the digital water network and the water resource multi-objective allocation business. Finally, to verify the scientificity and feasibility of the new model, the new model was applied to allocate water resources in the Heihe River basin of Xi'an city, Shaanxi Province.

Highlights

  • The rational allocation of water resources can greatly improve the utilization efficiency of regional water resources and alleviate shortages of regional water resources

  • Business integration of digital water networks and water resource allocation The aim of business componentization is to clarify business logic according to different business themes by dividing components according to business logic; develop, encapsulate and publish components; and customize corresponding business components on the integrated application platform

  • Business components are added to the corresponding nodes under the graph element of the digital water network to realize the integration of the digital water network and water resource collaborative allocation business

Summary

Introduction

The rational allocation of water resources can greatly improve the utilization efficiency of regional water resources and alleviate shortages of regional water resources. With the rapid development of modern water control concepts and information technologies (such as the Internet of Things, big data and cloud computing), a series of concepts like smart Earth, smart basin and smart water conservancy, along with new water control ideas, have been applied in the water conservancy industry. Israel has completed the ‘South-north Water Transfer’ large-scale water transmission project, which is controlled by computers and the Internet of Things, and has developed a water resource dispatching system that can realize the real-time allocation and management of water resources and optimize the allocation scheme. By using Remote Sensing, Global Position System and Geographic Information System (3S) technology (Dreizin et al 2008), multimedia technology and other technical means, the United States developed a visual simulation system for the digital management of the Tennessee River Basin. By using information technology such as 3S and Virtual Reality (VR), a visual watershed management platform was built for the Danube
