About the Project
The SISID Project involves the establishment of an interactive website to gather data from individual divers wherein these divers would donate their data, including Dive Time & Date, Dive Site Name and Location, and General Dive Environment Conditions.
The data together with actual field measurements and surveys, would then be processed and analyzed to
generate trends and patterns which
would be used in environmental monitoring and planning, among others.

Anilao, in the Municipality of Mabini, Province of Batangas has been identified as the pilot study location for this project as this is one of the most frequented dive locations in the country providing world class dive conditions.
This study aims to contribute in protecting the marine environment through effective monitoring and management of the underwater environment, as well as in maximizing potential revenue and enhancing the dive experience.
We welcome your support of The SISID Project.
