Abstract

Techniques for identifying air pollution sources based on aerosol retrieval and a glowworm swarm algorithm are described herein. According to these techniques, a satellite remote sensing image is obtained and a wind speed vector is obtained from the satellite remote sensing image. A GSO algorithm is applied, introducing a glowworm similarity correction factor obtained from an attribute value and a wind speed and wind direction correction factor obtained from the wind speed vector, and pollution sources are identified.
