The launching means the first port-App is a fact. The free App allows parties interested to follow ships’ movements. The service provides information on the expected, arriving and departing ships.
For now the App is available for the Iphone only. iamPort also provides information on the size, agent and mooring place of each ship inside the port, including the river cruise ships. It is possible to watch the river cruise mooring places on a map. And it is also possible to receive a message once a ship reaches destination. The iamPort App details can be forwarded by mail or twitter. Also, the App contains a Port of Amsterdam newsfeed. The app can be downloaded from the app store.
The Port of Amsterdam realised this App as part of its ambition to digitalise service and embrace new technologies. It is the first port authority with an App which means the Port has set the trend where mobile services are concerned. More information is available on the webpage or you may follow the Port of Amsterdam at Twitter: @havenamsterdam.
The Port of Amsterdam is the fourth port of Europe and seeks to be a smart port with sustainable growth being its key ambition. Growth ensuring jobs and incomes, growth allowing the port to make clever use of the available space; growth without damaging the quality of the water, soil and air; growth that will make the people of Amsterdam and the city’s businessmen even prouder of the port area and prepared to invest even more in it. These are Port of Amsterdam’s ambitions based on intensive cooperation with partners in the business community, city and region.
