Abstract:Artificial measurement, satellite remote sensing and aerial remote sensing are commonly used methods for conducting maritime surveillance and monitoring. However, they have obvious shortcomings in terms of accuracy and timeliness. There is an urgent need for an efficient, high-precision and wide-ranging maritime surveillance technology. Therefore, this study proposes a combined approach of satellite and unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) remote sensing for maritime surveillance and monitoring. It utilizes satellite remote sensing platforms to monitor the condition of large maritime areas and constructs a regional detection technology for detecting abnormal use of maritime areas. It also synergistically uses remote sensing intelligent computing methods of low-altitude UAV imagery to quickly and real-time acquire information on maritime use and ownership in the surveillance area, and achieve comprehensive control over the utilization of the jurisdictional maritime areas. The combined approach of satellite and UAV remote sensing constructed in this study can provide theoretical basis and methodological support for the formulation of policies for the development, management, and protection of marine resources.
