The application provides a vehicle illegal parking identification method and system, and aims to achieve vehicle illegal parking identification through constructing a three-dimensional model of an inspection road section, correspondingly obtaining panoramic image data of the inspection road section, identifying and intercepting a vehicle image based on the panoramic image data, judging whether a vehicle is located in an illegal parking area or not based on the mapping relation between each pixel point of the panoramic image data and the three-dimensional model, and accordingly completing vehicle illegal parking identification. For the traditional vehicle illegal parking management mode, when the vehicle illegal parking management is carried out, no matter on-site law enforcement or off-site law enforcement is carried out, a large amount of manpower needs to be invested, the whole illegal parking management process is relatively complicated, and the evidence obtaining identification and the management efficiency of the vehicle illegal parking are relatively low. Based on this, the vehicle illegal parking identification method and system provided by the embodiment of the application are provided to solve the technical problems of complicated process and low efficiency of the existing vehicle illegal parking evidence obtaining identification process.
The first embodiment is as follows:
fig. 1 is a flowchart of a vehicle illegal parking identification method according to an embodiment of the present application, where the vehicle illegal parking identification method provided in this embodiment may be executed by a vehicle illegal parking identification device, the vehicle illegal parking identification device may be implemented by software and/or hardware, and the vehicle illegal parking identification device may be formed by two or more physical entities or may be formed by one physical entity. Generally, the vehicle violation identification device can be a computing device, such as a computing processor of a vehicle violation identification system.
The following description will be given taking a calculation processor of the vehicle parking violation identification system as an example of a main body for executing the vehicle parking violation identification method. Referring to fig. 1, the vehicle parking violation identification method specifically includes:
s110, collecting point cloud data and panoramic image data of the inspection road section based on corresponding system time and position postures, and extracting a first motion track of the system which is positioned under the inspection road section through RTK.
Illustratively, in the process of evidence obtaining and identifying the illegal vehicle parking, the illegal vehicle parking identification system provided by the embodiment of the application is used for patrolling a patrolling road section. In the routing inspection process, the system inspects point cloud data and panoramic image data of a road section in real time, and determines a first motion track of the system based on self positioning.
Specifically, referring to fig. 2, a schematic structural diagram of a vehicle parking violation identification system according to an embodiment of the present application is provided. The vehicle parking violation identification system comprises a multi-line laser radar, a panoramic camera, an RTK (Real-time kinematic) positioning device and a calculation processor; the multi-line laser radar is used for acquiring point cloud data of the inspection road section; the RTK positioning device is used for recording a first motion trail of a system on the inspection road section; the panoramic camera is used for acquiring panoramic image data of the inspection road section; the computing processor is used for receiving the point cloud data, the first motion track and the image data, and executing the vehicle illegal parking identification method based on the received related data, so that illegal parking identification and judgment of the vehicle are realized.
Furthermore, in the vehicle parking violation identification system provided by the embodiment of the application, the multi-line laser radar carries out point cloud data acquisition based on a relative coordinate system. And the three-dimensional geographic coordinates corresponding to all pixel points of the panoramic image data acquired by the panoramic camera are the three-dimensional geographic coordinates in a geodetic coordinate system. Similarly, for the first motion trajectory determined by the RTK positioning device, the three-dimensional geographic coordinates of the respective trace points are also the three-dimensional geographic coordinates in the geodetic coordinate system. Therefore, the embodiment of the application is different from the method that whether the vehicle is illegal and stopped is directly determined according to the mapping relation between the panoramic image data and the collected point cloud data, the three-dimensional model of the patrol road section under the earth coordinate system is determined through the conversion of the model, and then illegal and stopped identification of the vehicle is carried out based on the mapping relation between the three-dimensional model and the panoramic image data. Before that, a first three-dimensional model and a second motion track corresponding to a relative coordinate system (namely, a local coordinate system) are constructed based on point cloud data, and then the first three-dimensional model and the second motion track are converted into a second three-dimensional model and a third motion track corresponding to a geodetic coordinate system. And determining the mapping relation between the second three-dimensional model and each pixel point of the panoramic image data through the third motion trail. Based on the mapping relation, when the vehicle is detected by the panoramic image data and the vehicle is determined to just fall into the defined illegal parking area according to the second three-dimensional model, the current vehicle is judged to be illegal, so that the illegal parking judgment of the vehicle is accurately carried out, and the illegal parking identification and management efficiency of the vehicle is improved.
It should be noted that, when the multi-line lidar, the panoramic camera and the RTK positioning device acquire related data, system time for acquiring data of each part needs to be synchronously recorded, so as to facilitate subsequent model conversion and determination of three-dimensional geographic coordinates based on the system time. Moreover, the multiline laser radar, the panoramic camera and the RTK positioning device need to acquire related data based on the same position and posture, that is, the multiline laser radar, the panoramic camera and the RTK positioning device share one position posture. Therefore, the data correspondence of each part can be guaranteed, and the subsequent three-dimensional model conversion and coordinate determination are facilitated. In one embodiment, the relative pose relationship among the multi-line laser radar, the panoramic camera and the RTK positioning device can be determined, pose conversion is performed based on a standard position pose, the position poses of the multi-line laser radar, the panoramic camera and the RTK positioning device are unified, and data correspondence of all parts is guaranteed.
And S120, generating a first three-dimensional model corresponding to the relative coordinate system and a second motion track of the system on the inspection road section according to the point cloud data.
Further, for the collected point cloud data, since the point cloud data is obtained in a relative coordinate system (i.e., a local coordinate system), three-dimensional geographic coordinates corresponding to each pixel point of the panoramic image data need to be determined subsequently. Since the three-dimensional geographic coordinates use a geodetic coordinate system, a three-dimensional model under the corresponding geodetic coordinates needs to be obtained based on the point cloud data. Before that, a first three-dimensional model and a second movement track of the system on the patrol road section are generated based on the point cloud data.
Specifically, a first three-dimensional model of the routing inspection road section under a relative coordinate system is constructed by using a SLAM algorithm based on the point cloud data, and a second motion track of the system under the relative coordinate system on the routing inspection road section is generated. SLAM (simultaneous localization and mapping, instantaneous localization and mapping or simultaneous mapping and localization) can perform self-localization according to position estimation and a map in the system moving process, and build an incremental map on the basis of self-localization at the same time, so as to complete the construction of the first three-dimensional model. And determines a second motion profile based on the self-localization. The second motion trail comprises a series of trail points, and the trail points record corresponding system time, attitude angle information and three-dimensional coordinates under a relative coordinate system.
S130, determining a rotation and translation transformation matrix of the second motion track and the first motion track, and converting the first three-dimensional model and the second motion track into a second three-dimensional model and a third motion track in a geodetic coordinate system based on the rotation and translation transformation matrix.
Based on the first three-dimensional model and the second motion trajectory generated in step S120, it is necessary to convert the first three-dimensional model and the second motion trajectory into a second three-dimensional model and a third motion trajectory in a geodetic coordinate system, so as to determine a mapping relationship between each pixel point of the panoramic image data and the second three-dimensional model. Wherein the second three-dimensional model and the third motion trajectory are generated by a rotational-translational transformation matrix, and referring to fig. 3, the rotational-translational transformation process includes:
s1301, registering the second motion track with the first motion track based on corresponding system time, and solving a rotation and translation transformation matrix of the second motion track and the first motion track;
s1302, the first three-dimensional model under the relative coordinate system is converted into a second three-dimensional model under the geodetic coordinate system through the rotation and translation transformation matrix, and the second motion track under the relative coordinate system is converted into a third motion track under the geodetic coordinate system through the rotation and translation transformation matrix.
Specifically, the first motion trail is obtained through an RTK positioning device, the RTK positioning device generates a first motion trail of the system in the geodetic coordinate through a differential GNSS (global navigation satellite system) technology, the first motion trail includes a series of track points, and each track point includes system time and a three-dimensional coordinate in the geodetic coordinate. And further registering the second motion track with the first motion track to obtain a rotation and translation transformation matrix. During registration, two track points with the same or the closest system time are respectively selected from the two motion tracks to be registered homonymous points, so that the three-dimensional coordinates of the two motion tracks are registered. In some embodiments, since the GNSS signals in the urban area may be blocked by tall buildings and trees, and errors may occur in a partial area in the first motion trajectory, a RANSAC (Random Sample Consensus) algorithm may be combined to perform registration of the two motion trajectories, so as to avoid the influence of the erroneous part.
Further, the formula of the rotational-translational transformation matrix is as follows:
X′=R3×3X+T3×1 (1)
Figure BDA0002899130950000081
Figure BDA0002899130950000082
wherein X and X' are three-dimensional coordinates of the first motion track and the second motion track which are registered with the same point respectively,
Figure BDA0002899130950000083
in order to be a matrix of rotations,
Figure BDA0002899130950000084
is a translation matrix. Then, the rotation-translation transformation matrix of the second motion track and the first motion track can be obtained by a simultaneous equation by substituting the values of the two three-dimensional coordinates of X and X' into the above equations (1), (2) and (3).
Further, based on the obtained rotation-translation transformation matrix, the first three-dimensional model and the second motion track in the relative coordinate system can be converted into the second three-dimensional model and the third motion track in the geodetic coordinate system. It should be noted that, although the third motion trajectory and the first motion trajectory are both motion trajectories of the system corresponding to the inspection road section in the geodetic coordinate system, the third motion trajectory is converted from the second motion trajectory, and the trajectory points of the second motion trajectory contain corresponding attitude angle information, so that the third motion trajectory contains attitude angle information of each trajectory point relative to the first motion trajectory. The attitude angle information is used for determining the mapping relation between each pixel point of the subsequent panoramic image data and the second three-dimensional model.
And S140, determining the three-dimensional geographic coordinates of each pixel point of the panoramic image data in the second three-dimensional model through the third motion track and based on the corresponding system time and the position posture.
After the third motion trail and the second three-dimensional model are determined, positioning of each pixel point on the panoramic image data is carried out, and the corresponding three-dimensional coordinate is determined. Referring to fig. 4, the pixel location process includes:
s1401, selecting track points corresponding to each frame of image in the panoramic image data from the third motion track based on corresponding system time;
and S1402, determining the three-dimensional geographic coordinates of each pixel point of each frame of image in the second three-dimensional model based on the corresponding position posture and according to the track points.
It can be understood that, because the multiline laser radar and the panoramic camera of the vehicle parking violation identification system share one position and one attitude, the panoramic image data acquired at a certain track point of the third motion track should be mapped with the point cloud data acquired at the track point at the same system time. Based on this characteristic, frame images in the panoramic image data that match the respective trajectory points are determined at the same system time. And determining point cloud data which is acquired under the same position posture with the frame of image, namely the three-dimensional geographic coordinates corresponding to the second three-dimensional model, based on the track points corresponding to the frame of image. Therefore, the three-dimensional geographic coordinates of each pixel point in each frame of image in the second three-dimensional model, namely the mapping relation between each pixel point of the panoramic image data and the second three-dimensional model, are determined.
S150, extracting a two-dimensional map of the routing inspection road section, and overlaying the second three-dimensional model to the two-dimensional map, wherein the two-dimensional map defines an illegal parking area in advance.
And S160, identifying and intercepting a target image of a corresponding vehicle or license plate in the panoramic image, and determining a coordinate area formed by three-dimensional geographic coordinates of each pixel point in the target image.
Specifically, the second three-dimensional model is converted from the first three-dimensional model constructed in real time. It cannot do the marking of the illegal regions in advance. The embodiment of the application establishes and stores the two-dimensional map of the patrol road section in advance, and defines the illegal parking area of the vehicle on the two-dimensional map. The second three-dimensional model is further superimposed onto the two-dimensional map. It will be appreciated that the two-dimensional map and the second three-dimensional model are two-dimensional and three-dimensional map data of the patrol section in the geodetic coordinate system, and the coordinates of the two-dimensional map and the second three-dimensional model should correspond to each other, and the three-dimensional coordinates of the second three-dimensional model only have information of the height part in comparison with the two-dimensional map. Therefore, by extracting the pre-stored two-dimensional map of the patrol inspection road section, the second three-dimensional model can be superposed on the two-dimensional map based on the corresponding relation between the geographic coordinate information of the two-dimensional map and the three-dimensional geographic coordinate of the second three-dimensional model.
Further, target detection and identification are carried out on the panoramic image data, and a target image containing a vehicle or a license plate is determined. And detecting and identifying the vehicle or the license plate in the panoramic image data by constructing a target detection and identification network model based on a convolutional neural network in advance. In the prior art, there are many techniques for performing target detection based on a target detection recognition model, and the specific detection recognition mode is not fixedly limited in the embodiment of the present application. And correspondingly detecting and identifying and intercepting the target image, wherein the three-dimensional coordinates of each pixel point in the panoramic image data in the second three-dimensional model are determined before. Then, based on the three-dimensional coordinates of each pixel point of the target image in the second three-dimensional model, the coordinate area of the target image in the second three-dimensional model can be determined. It will be appreciated that, since the two-dimensional map overlaps the second three-dimensional model, the coordinate region may also be correspondingly marked on the two-dimensional map.
S170, vehicle illegal parking judgment is carried out based on the comparison result of the coordinate area and the illegal parking area.
Finally, the coordinate area on the two-dimensional map is compared with the illegal parking area, and whether the vehicle corresponding to the coordinate area has illegal parking conditions can be judged. And comparing whether the coordinate area is overlapped with the illegal parking area, if so, outputting a corresponding vehicle illegal parking report, wherein the vehicle illegal parking report comprises the target image and the panoramic image data acquired by the associated system time. It can be understood that if the coordinate area and the parking violation area have an overlapping portion, it indicates that the current vehicle has a parking violation condition. Otherwise, no violation condition exists.
It should be noted that, when the vehicle is judged to be illegal, the corresponding vehicle illegal parking report is output, so that the current vehicle illegal parking situation is conveniently informed to the management personnel or the traffic law enforcement personnel. The management personnel or the traffic law enforcement personnel can visually and accurately determine whether the current vehicle has the condition of illegal parking based on the vehicle illegal parking report, the whole process does not need manual intervention to carry out illegal parking identification and evidence collection, great convenience is brought to the management personnel or the traffic law enforcement personnel, and illegal parking identification and management efficiency are improved.
And, the violation report includes the target image and panoramic image data acquired at the associated system time with the target avatar. The associated system time is the designated time adjacent to the system time corresponding to the target image, and the adjacent time period corresponding to the associated system time can be set according to actual needs. By providing panoramic image data of adjacent time, management personnel or traffic law enforcement personnel can further confirm the vehicle parking violation condition, and judgment errors are avoided.
Further, in one embodiment, the target image of the corresponding vehicle is input into a preset driver detection and recognition model, and the driver detection and recognition model is a target detection and recognition network model based on a convolutional neural network, and outputs a corresponding detection and recognition result through target detection and recognition.
