Nothing related to the "dive planner" as such. This is part of what I mean with dive sites as a first class citizen. I might even research some dive sites weeks or months before a trip, and then use that as a base for navigating to the dive sites when I get there to go diving. > The issue with not pruning unreferenced dive sites is that over time you > might accrue a lot of garbage in your dive file.

After a basic, simple dive site database is in place, we can use that to suggest (or automatically choose) the correct dive site for the user based on GPS position.
