It also allows logging of weights and exposure +protection used, dive masters and dive buddies and enables the user to +rate dives and provide additional dive notes. + +With Subsurface the user can also track dive locations including GPS +coordinates (which can conveniently entered using a map interface). +Subsurface calculates a wide variety of statistics of the user’s +diving and calculates and tracks information like the user's SAC rate, +partial pressures of O2, N2 and He, calculated deco information, and +many more. + +One of the major strength of Subsurface is its support of a wide range +of dive computers (most common dive computers are supported, a +detailed list is at +http://subsurface.hohndel.org/documentation/supported-dive-computers). +Subsurface can also import existing dive logs from several sources +including MacDive, Suunto DM3, JDivelog and divelogs.de. Another +strength is its ability to visualize the depth profile (and, if +available, the tank pressure curve) in very innovative ways that give +the user additional information on relative velocity (and momentary +air consumption) during the dive.
