In the northern region, more precisely in the state of Amazonas there is a great demand for river trips, rivers are the permanent roads that in the water regime puts to the test a whole logistics of passengers and cargo that require strategies for universal comfort of passengers, however the poor organization of ticket purchases ends up becoming a waste of time mainly for people who live far from the center of Manaus-AM, thus delaying these users who are often unable to make their trips. In view of all the problems faced daily by users in relation to the use of river transport in the northern region, more precisely in the state of Amazonas, the idea of developing the “my boat” application was conceived and designed and will in turn facilitate the means of travel by these users to the vessels to their destinations. The application in a simple, fast and safe way, will pass all information to users, such as: departure time, ticket prices, name of vessels available for destination States and Municipalities.
