If you know your survey site coordinates, enter them manually in decimal degrees using WGS84 Map Datum. Use the minus sign for latitudes south of the equator and longitudes west of the Prime Meridian to 180 degrees.

If you do not know your survey site coordinates, click the “Map Location” tab to use the map to zoom into your survey site and drop the pin on the map to fall within your survey dive site in the water (not on land or the beach). Ensure you zoom in as much as possible to ensure data accuracy.

We also cleaned up at Maeda point, a very popular site close by, plenty of debris mostly snorkeling related old fin straps etc as it is a tourist location
The above information is for 10 or more events at the same dive site, we do that as a dive shop continuously throughout the summer, on the cliffs are plenty of fisherman sitting so the most common objects are fishing related. We collect mostly lead sinkers as lead is particularly harmful and also can be upcycled to scuba weights.
I understand that it is important to log all the information but the communication from PADI was, just take a lot of pictures and upload them in the end of the year, it should be a bit more user friendly.
