Research on the Trend of Pine Wilt Disease Control by UAV in China Based on CNKI
The current research status and future development trends of UAV technology applied in the field of pine wilt disease prevention and control in China are comprehensively understood and analyzed.Based on the lar-gest academic literature database in China-CNKI(China National Knowledge Infrastructure),a detailed data mining and literature review was conducted by using the scientific analysis methods of bibliometrics.The time span of this study was from January 2012 to April 2024.A total of 122 articles closely related to the application of UAV in the field of pine wilt disease prevention and control were screened,and analyzed from multiple levels such as literature quantity,publication year,keywords,research institution,citation frequency,disciplinary classifica-tion,and journal types.The results show that from the changes in the number of literatures,with the rapid devel-opment and popularization of UAV technology,research on the application of drones in this field has shown an in-creasing trend year by year in recent years.However,in terms of quantity,compared with other mature research fields,China's research in this field is still in its early stages of development,with great research potential and de-velopment space.From the perspective of research direction,current research mainly focuses on the monitoring of pine wilt disease and utilizing the advantages of UAV such as high altitude,long distance and fast speed of UAV to achieve real-time monitoring and data analysis of epidemic areas.However,there is relatively little research on UAV control of pine wilt disease,which not only reflects the limitations of current research but also points out the direction for future research.In future research,on the one hand,advanced technologies such as artificial intelli-gence(AI)should be fully utilized to optimize and upgrade the algorithms and models of UAV in monitoring pine wilt disease,continuously improving the accuracy and effiiciency of monitoring.On the other hand,research ef-forts in UVA control of pine wilt disease should be increased.The application of UVA in flight prevention,treat-ment effect evaluation,and other aspects should be explored,in order to maximize the technological advantages of UVA in the entire process of pine wilt disease prevention and control.
