What if our networks could do more than just carry data?

In December, the Fibre Sensing Task of the GÉANT (GN5-2) Project, together with SURF @SURF turned 57 km of live optical fibre into a sensor.

The result? Detecting everything from trams to a plane landing at Amsterdam Airport Schiphol.

🎥 Watch Chris Atherton walk us through the experiment.
