National Key Project on Fiber Optic Sensing
The project aims to lay the foundation of a national data space for fibre optic sensor data by exploring the following topics: Legal and technical frameworks for producing and sharing access to data products derived from sensitive sensor data from DAS and related sensor networks. Fiber optical sensor networks, especially those using distributed acoustic sensor (DAS) technology have a wide range of applications, including monitoring of earthquakes, marine life and critical national infrastructure. Data from DAS sensors are often highly sensitive, making it difficult to share.
