This $130,000 Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation's (NSF) Computer and Information Science and Engineering (CISE) program (CFDA 47.070) will support planning activities for a proposed national testbed facility focused on fiber-based ground motion and deformation sensing. The key objectives are to:

  1. Develop the technical framework and feasibility plan for an "Internet Sensor Network" (Internet-S) testbed that would leverage modifications to existing internet fiber-optic infrastructure to enable advanced ground motion sensing capabilities. This includes defining the technical requirements and key facility components such as an optics lab, dark fiber network, and data analytics workbench.

  2. Organize working groups and convene two workshops to engage a broader community of researchers, vendors, and stakeholders in the Internet-S testbed design.

The intended outcome is a mid-scale research infrastructure proposal that would support the buildout of this national testbed facility, which could enable a diverse set of scholars to develop new internet-based environmental and infrastructure sensing applications that surpass current technologies in terms of scale, sensitivity, and cost-effectiveness.
