Waveland is conceived to be the next Instagram for surf checking, an app that will enable surfers to discover in real time which are the surfing conditions in their favorite surf spots. The content of this report goes through the identification of a problem that hasn’t yet been solved by the industry. It is discovered a gap between the service that the already stablished competitors provide and what the users really need. This is explained in the first chapter of the report, the introduction.
