Andrew Martinez
Andrew J. Martinez is the founder of the Marine Life of the North Atlantic app that most New England divers use for marine life identification. His app (apple/android) includes a giant catalog of marine life one can encounter in New England.
Andrew’s work began long before the app. He has dedicated his career to bring divers a dictionary of marine life across New England that first brought his book, Marine Life of the North Atlantic, to us in 1999 that has since morphed into this modernized app.
Marine Life Identification
App: Marine Life of the North Atlantic
The book Marine Life of the North Atlantic has evolved to a mobile app called Marine Life – North Atlantic. Andrew has worked conscientiously to make this application both an easily used digital book as well as a tool for timely communication between participating users.
