==Abstract==

The Somerton Man's case is one of the most mysterious case in South Australia until today. An unknown man was murdered on the Somerton beach, and the identification of the victim is still a mystery. The project aims to investigate the identification of the Somerton man by means of studying his DNA data provided. Unfortunately, the DNA data was corrupted and has a high drop rate, therefore the project team was required to use different strategies and techniques to recover and analyse the DNA, then try to find out any possible characteristics of the Somerton Man.

To approach the goals of the project, the team firstly evaluates the DNA data and try to conduct DNA analysis via different genetic services. In addition, a degradation process of complete DNA data was done. By degrading several complete DNA files, we can observe how degradation could affect DNA analysis results.
