During the last weekend (10-11 October) at Skopelos, was conducted for first time the PADI Underwater Survey Diver Training Course. It is a new Distinctive Specialty, which intends to provide the basic knowledge and the appropriate skills at those divers and researchers, which have a special interest in the mapping and the 3D representation of natural and cultural features of the marine environment. By the end of the PADI Underwater Survey Diver Course, it is expected that the certified divers should be able to participate in the preparation and the carrying out of an underwater survey campaign.
