Research on an Extensible Monitoring System of a Seafloor Observatory Network in Laizhou Bay

Abstract

An extensible remote monitoring system for a seafloor observatory network in Laizhou Bay was established to realize long-term, continuous and on-line monitoring for a marine ranching environment. This paper deals with data communication, device management and data quality control. A control model is introduced that is structured into four layers, enabling bidirectional information flow. Based on the control model, the standardized communication protocol and device object model-oriented dynamic management method are designed as plug-and-play, for data processing and control of a large number of devices . An improved data quality control method is proposed to reduce the data error rate. The monitoring system was developed based on socket network programming, MySQL database technologies and modular ideas. The seafloor observatory network was successfully deployed in Laizhou Bay marine ranching. The experimental results demonstrate that the monitoring system obtains better performance. The proposed algorithms can also be used in many other similar systems with adaptive requirements.

Underwater Object Detection in Marine Ranching Based on Improved YOLOv8

“…The layers are relatively functionally independent from each other, and the interface among them is of a standard form. Each layer uses the services of the adjacent underlying layer and provides services to its adjacent upper layers [24]. A diagram of the video surveillance system's architecture is shown in Figure 2.…”
