Coal mining induces changes in the nature of rock and soil bodies, as well as hydrogeological conditions, which can easily trigger the occurrence of geological disasters such as water inrush, movement of the coal seam roof and floor, and rock burst. Transparency in coal mine geological conditions provides technical support for intelligent coal mining and geological disaster prevention. In this sense, it is of great significance to address the requirements for informatizing coal mine geological conditions, dynamically adjust sensing parameters, and accurately identify disaster characteristics so as to prevent and control coal mine geological disasters. This paper examines the various action fields associated with geological disasters in mining faces and scrutinizes the types and sensing parameters of geological disasters resulting from coal seam mining. On this basis, it summarizes a distributed fiber-optic sensing technology framework for transparent geology in coal mines. Combined with the multi-field monitoring characteristics of the strain field, the temperature field, and the vibration field of distributed optical fiber sensing technology, parameters such as the strain increment ratio, the aquifer temperature gradient, and the acoustic wave amplitude are extracted as eigenvalues for identifying rock breaking, aquifer water level, and water cut range, and a multi-field sensing method is established for identifying the characteristics of mining-induced rock mass disasters. The development direction of transparent geology based on optical fiber sensing technology is proposed in terms of the aspects of sensing optical fiber structure for large deformation monitoring, identification accuracy of optical fiber acoustic signals, multi-parameter monitoring, and early warning methods.
