abstract = {In the framework of massive sensing and smart sustainable cities, this work presents an
urban distributed acoustic sensing testbed in the vicinity of the School of Technology and Telecommunication
Engineering of the University of Granada, Spain. After positioning the sensing technology
and the state of the art of similar existing approaches, the results of the monitoring experiment are
described. Details of the sensing scenario, basic types of events automatically distinguishable, initial
noise removal actions and frequency and signal complexity analysis are provided. The experiment,
used as a proof-of-concept, shows the enormous potential of the sensing technology to generate
data-driven urban mobility models. In order to support this fact, examples of preliminary density
of traffic analysis and average speed calculation for buses, cars and pedestrians in the testbed’s
neighborhood are exposed, together with the accidental presence of a local earthquake. Challenges,
benefits and future research directions of this sensing technology are pointed out.},
