Rayleigh scattering -based distributed acoustic sensing (DAS) systems use fiber optic cables to provide distributed strain sensing. In DAS, the optical fiber cable becomes the sensing element and measurements are made, and in part processed, using an attached optoelectronic device. The measured acoustic waveform highly varies along the sensing fibre due to the intrinsic uneven DAS longitudinal response and distortions originated during mechanical. We apply fiber-optic sensing approaches, and specially Distributed Acoustic Sensing (DAS) for imaging and monitoring the subsurface in a wide range of environments at depth scales varying from 10's of meters to several kilometers. By using both existing telecommunication networks (dark fiber) and.
