Abstract
This paper describes the plans for a new information system to supply nowcasts and forecasts of current information for navigation to the Port of Rotterdam. The system will consist of both HF radar and a 3D hydrodynamic model. The currents measured by the HF radar will be assimilated into the 3D model to provide the best forecast.
