About project
Diverpedia is a unique project. With Diverpedia everyone will have opportunity to tell about himself and his experience in scuba diving!
You can become the part of history! Tell the world about yourself!
First of all we would like to thank you for your attention and that you decided to learn more about our project.
It is already several years passed since our team began to realize project is scuba diving sphere.
Our slogan is «Find your way in diving!».
This idea appeared very spontaneously. There is already several years passed when our team started successful realization of different project in scuba diving sphere. Mostly all members of our team are involved in scuba diving and with big pleasure practice it.
Once during one of our corporate meetings we were discussing details of the future project business plan. It`s appeared that it is difficult to find necessary information about diving ( for example worldwide statistics, descriptions and requirements for holding championships, marine protection etc.)
It took plenty of hours for us to find information about total quantity of scuba divers in the world or where are the best places for scuba diving on Boracay Island. For example we have asked scuba divers “Who are the most popular scuba divers in the world?” and they answered – “ I can name only myself =) “
There are lots of sources where we could find small pieces of information about scuba diving but there is no such place where all necessary information could be found.
Exactly at that moment appeared this idea – we need to create an Encyclopedia about scuba diving. We named it Diverpedia!
What`s that?
We want to create a web-site where in free access will be available all relevant information about scuba diving.
In Diverpedia will be following sections such as:
Besides topics according in sections above we are also planning to place on our web site interactive map with targeted places for scuba diving, diving centers, oceanariums etc. Also we are planning to create video archive where experienced scuba divers will share with their students and beginners theirs video experience about scuba diving.
And it is only a small part of possible information that we are going to share with you on Diverpedia.
We expect that people will be interested to fill in sections of the site, share their knowledge and experience, upload your photos and videos. We will also post the results of years of our research.
We want people to know the famous divers, whose achievements to be proud of and to know places of legendary shipwrecks or the enchanting beauty of the underwater reefs. Our team is interested in transferring knowledge to future generations and beginners in diving.
Of course, we are also interested in benchmarking against international copyright and rewarding active users Diverpedia.
The main objective of the project – the creation of a common knowledge base about diving. And it will be accessible and free resource for everyone.
