Right now Abysner calculates decompression profiles and makes sure you reach the surface at your exact configured gradient (high) factor.
However, especially for recreational dives, it would make sense to allow users to let the planner add a safety stop automatically if required.
The industry standard seems to be:
- 3 minutes at 5 meters if the dive was deeper than 10 meters
- 5 minutes at 5 meters if the dive was deeper than 30 meters
(Above is based on what Shearwater computers do in adaptive safety-stop mode)
The user should also be able to choose the "mode" of the safety stop: no safety stop, 3 minutes, 5 minutes, or automatic adaptive mode in which the planner chooses between 3 or 5 minutes depending on the greatest depth.
Open questions:
- For dives that require decompression at 3 meters, should the safety stop be moved to 3 meters? Going back to 5 meters is obviously useless, and doing the stop at 5 meters in the first place before going to 3 meters also makes no sense.
- Should a safety stop be added at all when the dive already has mandatory decompression stops? (Shearwater computers for example do this, if safety-stops are enabled)
What are standard safety stop depths in imperial diving standards? 15 feet
