Why I made this

I work in data analysis and tech. This was a fun (by my definition) project to fully test automation, AI and predictive models, which is what I do at work, pointed at my passion: diving.

It also makes my life easier. I've distilled how I personally read the charts (swell, rain and so on) into a score I can check in seconds.

Friends often ask me what I think the conditions will be like, so this is also a way to help them plan their dives.

It won't be perfect. It's a general indicator of conditions at a beach or dive site, and whether they're improving or deteriorating.

Feedback welcome. If a score matches what you saw, tell me. If it's way off, tell me that too, so I can tweak the model. Message me on Instagram: @sammybrightstuff
