The 2023 DAS RCN Workshop will be held June 13 (all day) and June 14th (morning) at the University of Wisconsin-Madison. This workshop will provide an opportunity to bring together the Distributed Acoustic Sensing (DAS) community that has matured and expanded over these past three years of the research coordination network. 

At this workshop, there will be opportunities to present and discuss DAS science and technology. We also welcome participants 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 using this form. There is no registration fee and an optional application for travel support is included. Late registration will be accommodated as space permits.

The travel support application deadline is April 12th. The deadline for in-person registration has been extended to May 26th. 

The research coordination network and this workshop is supported by funding from the National Science Foundation under award EAR-1948737.
