Auto Noon Report Input Manual

What is Auto Noon report Input?

You don’t need to input Noon report manually in Netpas Vessel Monitor. If a captain sends a noon report to us by email or TELEX with a unique call sign, it will be analyzed and inputted automatically on your Netpas Vessel Monitor. You just need to make sure that your captain always adds our email as Cc and use our Noon report form for that. Then you can see your vessel position and other important information in Netpas Distance.
