Question

evaluate port of Hamburg using (1963) anyport model

Answer 1

A researcher named Bird developed the Anyport model in 1983 to determine ports' evolution and its infrastructure with time. The researcher mainly focused on British ports and demonstrated how the ports' privileges develop over time. At first, the ports only have attached pillars and some ships. The ports then evolve by enhancing their infrastructure and by making efficient spaces. The last part of the evolution is to adapt to the marine technologies in the operations. It will help the ports to get more cargo and passenger ships for its effective services. The model also analyzes the port of Hamburg. It is on the seaport of River Elbe in Germany. The port came into existence in the year 1189 when the country came into existence. At the time of inception, it was just a small port with little structures and wooden pillars. After a few years, the port became the official court of the country. The companies and the country traded through the port and gained foreign currencies. Till the year 1321, the port became the economic pillar of the country. It developed large structures to attract the ships, and also to enhance the trade. The country improves its relationships with many Asian and European countries because of the increased business. Hence, the sport evolved from the 12th century to act as an economic relief to the country.
