FINA rules for diving pools:
FR 5.3.10 Mechanical surface agitation shall be installed under the diving facilities to aid the divers in their visual perception of the surface of the water. In pools equipped with an underwater bubble machine, the machine should only be used for this purpose if it creates sufficient water agitation when working with a very low pressure; otherwise a horizontal water sprinkler system should only be used.

Divers often use these lower platforms to train, learn new dives, and brush up on basic skills. Many training pools also have a 1 meter and 3 meter platform for training purposes. Young divers can learn skills like armstands or platform take-offs from these heights. However, the 1 and 3 meter platforms are not used in competition.
