Consult position
The Port Authority enables terminal and barge operators to consult the position of barges in the Barge Traffic System web application.
Antwerp Port Authority offers terminal operators and barge operators the possibility to consult the position information for barges. Terminal operators can consult the position of any known barge, while barge operators can only consult the positions of their own barges.
How does it work?
The Port Authority receives barge position data through various channels, for a number of passage points in Flanders and the Netherlands. These position data are displayed on a map in the Barge Traffic System web application.
Advantages
- Barge operators and terminal operators can both update their schedules
- More accurate estimate of arrival times
- Barge operators can optimise their speed
