About
OpenDeepMap provides structured data about scuba dive sites: locations, access, depths, currents, visibility, hazards, seasonality, and basic logistics.
Data is contributed and maintained by divers and local operators who know the sites.
Data
- Entities: site (point/area), entry point, route, hazard.
- Core fields: access, depth_min/max, current, visibility, difficulty, features, hazards, best_months, MPA/fees.
- Evidence: optional GPX tracks and geotagged photos to support edits.
- Formats: GeoJSON for records; vector tiles for maps.
Community
Anyone can propose edits. Local knowledge is preferred. Sensitive sites may be fuzzed for conservation (coordinates offset).
