Question
what is the size of international swimming pool

Answer
I think you mean an Olympic swimming pool size, which are 50 meters long, 8-10 lanes wide (roughly 16-25 meters), and can range in depth.  International competition pools are generally not used for diving, so usually are about 2 meters deep.  However, some can be much deeper (5 meters) depending on their purpose.  I am sorry I cannot give you specific measurements, but the only "official" part about an international competition swimming pool is its length.  Even that can change depending on the type of meet taking place.  All Olympic pools have what is called a bulkhead which can be moved to change the length to 25 meters, or to change the pool to short course yards (25 yards or 50 yards).  Hope this helps!
