Practical Aspects of Distributed Fibre Optic Sensing (DFOS) in Geotechnical Monitoring at ICSMGE, Vienna

At the 21st International Conference on Soil Mechanics and Geotechnical Engineering (ICSMGE) held in Vienna, fibrisTerre organized a workshop session on June 14 — DFOS in Action: Proven Value in Geotechnical Infrastructure Projects —
Six speakers shared hard-won lessons from major field deployments.
Real results covering deformation processes, long-term settlement, pore-water pressure, foundation integrity, and more.

The speakers:
Christoph Monsberger – ACI Monitoring, Graz
Nicky de Battista – Epsimon Ltd, UK
Anna Stork – Atkins Réalis, UK
Jim Whiteley – Atkins Réalis, UK
R. Andrew Yeskoo, Ph.D., P.E. – Geocomp, USA
Carlo Rabaiotti, Fibradyke, Switzerland
Panel moderator: Nils Nöther, fibrisTerre

And fibrisTerre presented a short paper, “Application of Distributed Fiber-Optic Sensing in Large Geotechnical Structures:
Insights and Challenges of Deformation and Displacement Monitoring”

The conference papers are available – open source
