One highlight is the “Port live” function. It shows what the user is seeing in his or her port environment. If the smartphone is held in the direction of a ship, for example, it is identified and the app displays its name in a so-called augmented reality.

With a click, users receive further information about the ship and photos of it. The terminals and the companies located in the port are also displayed via “Port live”.

This function is just one of eight in the new Port of Hamburg app. From small barges to mega container carriers – over 20,000 ships are stored in the ship database with pictures and detailed information.
