The FiberLab’s mission is to enable transformative science through easily deployed optical fiber sensing. Our lab has deployed optical fiber sensing solutions in cryospheric, offshore, urban, and borehole environments. We have diverse expertise including deploying submarine cables, working in remote environments, using optical multiplexing on lit telecommunications fibers, and using GPU-based edge computing. For more information about the scientific discoveries that have taken place in our lab, please visit the individual research websites of the FiberLab faculty. To start working quickly with our data, see this example featuring DAS waveforms recording the 2023 Türkiye earthquake.
