Abstract
The authors describe a system which will, at about 10 installations in continuous operation after 2002, be the first fiber optic sensor system for ship hull monitoring with a wide user base. The experiences made with these systems in the coming years will provide valuable information on the design, reliability and possible use of such systems, and provide a basis for further development.
