    Summary: A semifinite spectral triple for an algebra canonically associated to canonical quantum gravity is constructed. The algebra is generated by based loops in a triangulation and its barycentric subdivisions. The underlying space can be seen as a gauge fixing of the unconstrained state space of Loop Quantum Gravity. This article is the second of two papers on the subject [for part I, cf. Classical Quantum Gravity 26, No. 6, Article ID 065011, 53 p. (2009; Zbl 1162.83300)].
