My Scuba Diving Data Extraction and Analysis

This personal project mirrors real-world data challenges — taking raw, unstructured logs and turning them into something meaningful for decision-making. 

 

 

  • Raw Data Challenge (analytical thinking and problem-solving)

    • Connect the watch through serial port
    • The watch only exported “raw numbers” with no context.

    • I had to reverse-engineer what those numbers meant (depth, time intervals, duration, temperature, etc.).

  • Data Transformation (PowerShell Script / Automation)

    • I wrote a PowerShell script to parse the raw text and convert it into a structured CSV table.

  • Data Modeling & Enrichment

    • After conversion, I loaded the CSV into Power BI.

    • Added calculated fields (e.g., fast ascend warning).

  • Visualization & Insights

    • KPIs (total dives, max depth, average duration).

    • Trends (depth changes over time).

    • Safety/interesting insights (Number of warnings per dive).
