Distributed Acoustic Sensing RCN Workshop

Date(s): June 13-14, 2023
Location: Madison, Wisconsin

Overview

This workshop will provide an opportunity to bring together the Distributed Acoustic Sensing (DAS) community that has matured and expanded over the past three years of the research coordination network. There will be opportunities to present and discuss DAS science and technology. Participants will also have the opportunity to contribute short, 1-2 page white papers outlining their own vision of where DAS-enabled science should head and what is needed to get there. Following the conclusion of the workshop, a report will be developed that provides a vision for the future of DAS-enabled science – based on presentations, discussions, and contributed white papers. A draft of the report will be circulated to the community for comment before being finalized and published to the workshop website. The final report will be delivered to NSF and also circulated to AGU members and federal agencies. 

This workshop will be held in-person with a virtual component, limited to a broadcast of main presentations and sessions only. All participants, in-person and virtual, must register. There is no registration fee and an optional application for travel support is included. Late registration will be accommodated as space permits.
