UDCF - Universal Dive Computer Format

Kai Schröder `<kai@streit.cc>` Steffen Reith `<streit@streit.cc>`,

February 3rd, 2000

The interchangeability of the various formats of dive profiles of different dive computer and dive simulation programs is the purpose of UDCF. With it it's possible to analyse a "real" dive profile recorded by an arbitrary dive computer after conversion into UDCF on an arbitrarily chosen computer system or to recalculate this profile using a different decompression model, respectively. More information and related software can be found in the UDCF main page.
