Practical Aspects of Distributed Fibre Optic Sensing (DFOS) in Geotechnical Monitoring at ICSMGE, Vienna June 14

At the ICSMGE, fibrisTerre is organizing a workshop session on June 14 — DFOS in Action: Proven Value in Geotechnical Infrastructure Projects —
Bringing together six speakers to share hard-won lessons from major field deployments, it’s a rare opportunity to dig into all aspects of DFOS with practitioners and peers.
In the exhibition, fibrisTerre has stand 29, right by a catering station, so come and say: ‘Hello.’ We’d love to see you there.

Messen in der Geotechnik 2026 Braunschweig TU
06.02.2026

Geomechanik und Geotechnik TU Braunschweig

Members of the Geotechnical community in Germany gather at Technische Universität Braunschweig on January 19 for the Institut für Geomechanik und Geotechnik (IGG) ‘‘Messen in der Geotechnik 2026.’ Following the opening remarks by Marius Milatz and Joerg Gattermann, speakers from across Germany and beyond will discuss tunnel, cable car, radioactive waste repository, harbor wall, and other fascinating projects, as well as the tools used to measure them.
This is fibrisTerre’s first trade stand appearance of the year, and we are excited to meet and reconnect with other participants.

Monitoring rock movement and temperature in a mine - MOVIE project

Continuous Distributed fiber optic strain and temperature DFOS measurements are running, 147 m below ground in Freiberg’s mine Reiche Zeche.

Thank you to TU Bergakademie Freiberg and Technische Universität Clausthal for the excellent collaboration in the MOVIE project. The project (funded by the German Federal Ministry of Research), aims to develop a digital twin of part of an underground mine.

Controlling floodwater for urban resilience - a MULTICLIMACT project

Movable defence barriers help control water flow during floods. Knowing where displacement occurs before failure by measuring strain as the water gushes past enables a smarter design. Weight and structure can be optimised to ensure effective flow control.
The project is managed by Delft University of Technology.

We didn’t win — and we’re still smiling

Congratulations to the well-deserving winners of the Ground Engineering Magazine Awards in June.
fibrisTerre wasn’t among them. So why are we happy?

We celebrated a great collaboration with Network Rail and Senceive, tackling the challenge of rapidly detecting and locating rockfall along transport routes.
Huge thanks to the project team: Derek Butcher, Massimo Facchini, Bridie Grimes, Dom Kisz, Nils Nöther and James Taylor for their unwavering engagement!

Sensing at the speed of light T shirt

Measuring at the speed of light, running even faster...

fibrisTerre took part in the 5 × 5 TEAM STAFFEL in its hometown of Berlin.
The team achieved a commendable average running speed of 0.00278 km/second.
So, we didn’t quite achieve the measurement speed of our instruments.

Congratulations to our running and support teams!
