Urban rivers play an essential role in the human environment and urban development; because of their narrow and long characteristics, challenging for general remote sensing data sources to meet the monitoring requirements. In order to solve the problem of insufficient application of remote sensing water quality monitoring in urban rivers. In this paper, based on unmanned aerial vehicles (UAV) images and measured water quality data, the genetic algorithmₑxtreme gradient boosting (GAXGBoost) algorithm is used to model water quality parameters in the study area, combined with its characteristics of supporting urban river polymorphism learning and semantic feature analysis. The results show that the coefficient of determination (R2) of GAXGBoost algorithm for chlorophyll a (Chla), total phosphorous (TP), total nitrogen (TN), ammonia–nitrogen (NH3-N) and turbidity (TUB) is 0. 855, 0. 699, 0. 787, 0. 694, and 0. 597, respectively, indicating a high precision and the predicted results are consistent with the measured data. Meanwhile, this paper compares the GAXGBoost model with other algorithms: Deep Neural Network (DNN), Random Forest, genetic algorithmRandomForest (GARandomForest), adaptive boosting (AdaBoost) and genetic algorithmₐdaptive boosting (GAAdaBoost), and the performance of the GAXGBoost model is better. At the same time, data from different periods have been added to verify the model’s applicability. Moreover, based on the inversion results, analyze from the point of view of point source pollution, non-point source pollution, etc. , to further investigate the influencing factors that cause urban river pollution. The current method has important practical significance for promoting the intelligent and automatic level of water environment monitoring technology in ecological environmental protection and urban water resources protection.
