Use of inland vessel AIS data

The Port of Rotterdam Authority is developing digital applications to optimise the logistics chain and make it more sustainable. Your data ensure that these applications function better and are more reliable, which in turn helps improve the port of Rotterdam’s competitive position. An example of this is Pronto, which shipping companies, agents, terminals and other service providers use to exchange information about their port calls. Insight into the location of inland vessels via AIS improves scheduling and helps companies respond quickly to any changes. This enables them to better facilitate inland vessels in the port.

The GDPR requires the Port Authority to request the shipowner’s consent for the use of AIS data from inland vessels. You can give your consent using the form below. We guarantee that we will handle your AIS data with care. These data will only be used in products and services operated by authorised users. AIS information will not be used for enforcement and inspections.
