      Hello everyone,

      I’ve just started building an open-source tool depthviz to generate dive overlay videos from dive logs, and I’m looking for dive log files (with freediving/depth data) to improve compatibility.

      I am a freediver, but I’m not a Suunto user; I’m not sure which file is good for me to process. I did some research, and I think there are 3 file types (SDE / XML / SML) that Suunto app can export. (according to https://www.suunto.com/Support/faq-articles/dm5/how-do-i-import--export-dive-logs-to-dm5/)

      If you’re willing to share the dive log, email them to noppanut.connect@gmail.com. I’m happy to give you credit on the AUTHORS.md!

      Thank you!

        @noppanut15 for the Suunto Ocean, you can also export fit files from Suunto App.

          @isazi Thanks for sharing! I wasn’t aware that Suunto also supports FIT! 🙂

          Anyway, it’s still helpful if anyone has Suunto generated FIT files, for testing purposes. Please feel free to let me know. Thank you!

            @noppanut15 So far I only have done one open water freediving session with the Suunto Ocean, but I am happy to help. How does your software differ from this? https://goprotelemetryextractor.com/telemetry-overlay-trial?affi=geochip&gad_source=1&gclid=Cj0KCQiA57G5BhDUARIsACgCYnx2VSZPPgc8mYiCjayx3LEhb9NgWpiOmiv9shiFEj-3zNOcQAQalVMaAkW9EALw_wcB

              Hi @marbjo,

              One session is actually more than enough. Really appreciate your help!

              If possible, you could send me all the file formats that you could export. I will evaluate which format is okay to process and easy for users.

              I’m a freediver as well, but at first, I couldn’t find this kind of FREE software helping me with this. So, I developed my own one, originally supporting only my dive computers.

              After I posted my training videos online with depth overlay, people often asked me how I did it. So, I decided to publish this tool and work on expanding dive computer supports to cover more brands.

              I think my software will target only freedivers and be completely FREE and opensource (anyone can see the source code and make improvements). You may take a look at my GitHub repo here for the details: https://github.com/noppanut15/depthviz.

              When you’re ready to share the logs, please email them to noppanut.connect@gmail.com. I’m happy to give you credit on the contributor list as well. 🙂

              Thanks in advance!

                Hi @noppanut15, your project sounds fantastic! To help you expand depthviz’s compatibility, I recommend focusing on parsing FIT, SDE, and XML files first, since these are the most commonly exported formats from Suunto devices, including the Suunto Ocean. You might want to use open-source FIT parsers (like FitSDK or fitdecode) and analyze sample SDE/XML structures to build robust import logic. Also, reaching out in freediving and Suunto forums with a quick upload form (Google Form or GitHub issue template) might increase contributions. Keep up the great work—this tool could be a real game-changer for the freediving community!
