Useful forecasts
Response from developer
Thank you, this means a lot. The forecasts are the hardest part of DiveSight and where most of the work goes: billions of satellite and ocean-model data points, run through models we validate against actual conditions. It's still a forecast, so it won't always be perfect, but hearing it held up at sites you know is exactly what we worked so hard for... and how we keep making it better.
Great concept
Response from developer
Thank you, this is wonderful to hear. That's exactly the spirit I hoped for, whether you're planning a dive or just exploring the ocean from the couch. Getting to know your own local sites better and discovering new areas and critters is a big part of why I built it. And if you ever want something new, the app makes it easy: you can flag a missing dive site from any site page or the map, suggest a species from any species list, or send general feedback from the dedicated page in Settings. I read every one.
Perfect
Response from developer
This is exactly what I hope to hear, thank you. Testing the forecast against what you actually see in the water is the real bar, and "realistic" is exactly what we're after. A lot of careful science goes into getting there, always balanced against how genuinely complex the ocean is. Means a lot that you put it to the test on a real dive... that's exactly how our forecasts keep getting sharper.
