GN5-2 Fibre Sensing Incubator Project: Closure Report

The document summarises the results and key achievements of the Fibre sensing NETDEV Incubator project run as a part of the Network Development Work Package (WP6) of the GN5-1 project. Fibre sensing represents a significant opportunity for NRENs to leverage their existing fibre optic infrastructure for environmental monitoring and other applications. Technical possibilities and solutions, user community, policies around data sharing and a holistic eco-system from data gathering to harvesting was in scope of the project and its first conclusions were presented at an infoshare in December 2024.
