QR Codes added to UKHO’s Standard Nautical Charts

QR Codes added to UKHO's Standard Nautical Charts | QR4U.in

In an initiative to deliver the benefits of digital solutions to users of paper navigational charts, the United Kingdom Hydrographic Office (UKHO) has introduced Quick Response (QR) codes to its portfolio of Standard Nautical Charts.

All newly printed versions of 3,371 Standard Nautical Charts and Mariners’ Routing Guides, including Print-On-Demand charts, now feature a unique QR code. By scanning the QR code, the user will be taken directly to the relevant page for the scanned chart on the UKHO’s searchable Notes to Mariners database, known as NM Websearch, where they will be provided with instant access on their smart phone or tablet to chart status information. This is a valuable chart management tool that will help to deliver the latest navigational safety information at the touch of a button.

That's thanks to WeChat, Tencent's hot mobile app, which has 272 million monthly active users and features a QR code scanner. WeChat blends elements of Facebook, Instagram and WhatsApp, and it's branching into e-commerce.

With a point-of-sale software plug-in, a QR code can be printed at the bottom of every receipt along with a call-to-action encouraging customers to scan the QR code. When customers scan the QR code, they can be automatically enrolled in your loyalty program and begin earning rewards.

The gravestones in cemeteries worldwide have not been altered for many generations, but now they can provide us with a digital QR code that is linked with the life stories of the buried. The innovative concept of memorialization was developed by the company Quiring Monuments and their ultimate goal is to preserve the memories of loved ones for the future generations. You simply need a smartphone and an appropriate app and you can scan anyone’s “living” memorial. You will then get redirected to a website which is administered by the family members of the deceased and have the chance to get to know that person’s life story in a unique 21st century way.
