摘要:China's Chang'e‐4 (CE‐4) probe will explore the South Pole‐Aitken basin in late 2018. Its preselected landing area is located on the southeastern floor of the Von Kármán crater. Landing experience of China's Chang'e‐3 probe may not be applied to CE‐4 mission directly because the topography of lunar farside is more rugged. Moreover, due to scale dependence and smooth effects, the previous topographic studies derived from digital elevation model data with lower resolution cannot represent the meter‐scale topographic features. Because of low time and space complexities in lunar images, image segmentation algorithm is especially suitable for recognizing lunar features. We divided the narrow angle camera (NAC) mosaic image into three parts: dark area, bright area, and flat area, based on a double‐threshold Otsu method. The first two parts corresponded to the undulating areas (positive and negative terrains). And then we calculated the flat area percentage ( Fap ) of the previous successful lunar landing missions (including Chang'e‐3, Apollo, Surveyor, and Luna series) and obtained the Fap threshold (>0.6) for lunar safe landing. According to Fap map (~1.5 m per pixel) of CE‐4 preselected landing area, the divided square grids with a size of 0.01° can be classified into safe grids ( Fap > 0.6) and unsafe grids ( Fap ≤ 0.6). The CE‐4 preselected landing areas can be greatly reduced to five potential landing areas. In the last, we proposed a route planning method, which took both the distance and security into account, for CE‐4 rover to dynamically generate a safe and short route between current grid and target grid.
