DOCUMENTATION DIVER
WHY TAKE THIS COURSE?
One of GUE’s goals is to document the underwater environment and make the public aware of its beauty, variety, uniqueness, and the need to protect it.
Divers are natural ambassadors of the underwater world, and GUE’s Documentation Diver course is designed to introduce divers to the basics of documentation techniques, project organization, and logistics that are useful in general project-based diving.
WHO IS IT FOR?
Anyone who is interested in being able to contribute in an efficient manner to any underwater documentation project dives such as data collecting, survey, video, or photography will benefit from this course.
WHAT WILL I LEARN?
Course outcomes include, but are not limited to: basic training in photography/videography, the use of related equipment, specific team skills needed during documentation diving, specific communication requirements, establishment of clear objectives and work plans, management of team tasks, report creation, mapping, survey, and press release creation.Applicants for a Documentation Diver program must:

GUE PHOTOGRAMMETRY
Modern technology combined with skilled and competent divers is a great mix to achieve unprecedented outcomes from underwater imaging. Meticulous and proper documentation of a dive site or submerged artifacts can be rewarded by a stunning 3D modelling.
GUE’s Photogrammetry Diver course is designed to introduce divers to the skills and procedures for using underwater photogrammetry to create digital 3D models.

SCIENTIFIC DIVER
Project diving is a cornerstone of GUE activities and a reason why many decide to pursue scuba diving. GUE cooperates with many scientific research centers globally where archaeologists, biologists, hydrologists, and geologists benefit from the competence of GUE trained divers while conducting underwater research.
GUE’s Scientific Diver course prepares divers to act as members of scientific diving teams using proper equipment and techniques, and to understand legal aspects and responsibilities relevant to scientific diving.
