UAV Based on Communication Network to Obtain Oil Pipeline Data and 3D Modeling

Abstract

With the advancement of science and technology and the development of industry, the demand for oil is increasing, and the measurement of oil is becoming more and more reliable and accurate. The communication network refers to the physical connection of various isolated devices to realize the link of information exchange between people, people and computers, and computers and computers, so as to achieve the purpose of resource sharing and communication. Oil and natural gas pipelines are an important strategic resource and the economic lifeline of a country. China’s long-distance oil and natural gas pipelines have developed rapidly in recent years, and the Beijing-Shijiazhuang Pipeline, the “West-East Gas Pipeline,” and the western crude oil and refined oil pipeline projects have been completed. The UAV can produce geometric data with high precision and build its 3D model. Therefore, this study proposed a UAV based on the communication network to obtain oil pipeline data and 3D modeling. The study mainly talked about the energy consumption in the era of communication. The energy acquisition was analyzed, the pipeline transportation measures for petroleum energy under UAV technology were focused on, the three-dimensional modeling of its terrain capture was carried out, and then the experimental data were analyzed after the equipment was debugged in the experimental part. The final experimental results showed that, under different frequencies, the data collected by the host computer were compared with the field measurement data, and the errors of the water and oil phases were calculated. It can be clearly seen from the data that the error was less than 5%, which also proved that this method was feasible.
