In geological exploration, the texture and context information generated by different rocks on the inner wall of the drilling hole is of great significance to understand the geological condition. Drilling camera technology can obtain digital drilling video and hole wall images. For a long time, the method of manual interpretation is the main method of studying hole wall images. This method has problems such as poor real-time performance and low work efficiency .In this paper, the processing algorithm is designed based on the imaging characteristics of hole wall image and the method of digital image processing, including image preprocessing, image expansion and image stitching. First, the radius of the area is determined according to the image features, and then the concentric circle expansion method is used to obtain the rectangular expansion image. Finally, the SIFT feature point is used to complete the accurate matching with the Ransac algorithm, and use weighted average method to complete image fusion. The entire algorithm can obtain a panoramic expansion image of the hole wall area, laying the foundation for the quantitative analysis of drilling data.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
