Design Challenge
The information required for diving by scuba divers is the proficiency according to the diving site, the best season, the degree of diving visibility, and the maximum depth that can be dived. Such information is individual and subjective. In order to sort out as much accurate information as possible, I searched various Internet information, and for information that was difficult to judge, I received the help of an expert.
Research
We researched over 500 dive sites for this project, and selected 300 of them. Information on dive sites was obtained through Internet searches, and the data was organized in Excel. The sea surface temperature information utilized the information of World Sea Temperatures, which is updated daily. (www.seatemperature.org / 8th August 2022)
Inspiration
It is difficult to scuba dive in Korea because it is cold in winter. So I looked at the map and looked for a warm country where I could dive in winter. But there were many countries I wanted to go to, and as I was organizing the information, I found about 500 fantastic diving spots. I edited 300 of them and ended up making it into an infographic poster.
Project Duration
The project started in August 2022 in Seoul, South Korea, and took about a month.
