A systematic identification method for non‐linear stochastic spatiotemproal (SST) systems described by non‐linear stochastic partial differential equations (SPDEs) is investigated in this study based on pointwise observation data. A theoretical framework for a semi‐finite element model approximating to an infinite‐dimensional system is established, and several fundamental issues are discussed including the approximation error between the underlying infinite‐dimensional dynamics and the model to be identified, and its rationality etc. Based on the proposed theoretical framework, a general identification method with irregular observation data is provided. These results not only provide an effective method for the identification of non‐linear SST systems using measurement data (both offline and online), but also demonstrate a potential solution for the analysis, design and control of non‐linear SST systems from a numerical point of view.
