An interactive wayfinding and information kiosk was installed at the North Hempstead Town Dock in Long Island, N.Y., according to an article on theislandnow.com.

Through the kiosk's 37-inch touchscreen, users can find content targeted at improving their experience at the dock and around town. Features include:

• Information on local supermarkets and restaurants
• Long Island Railroad schedules
• Directions to various destinations via Mapquest
• Weather forecast via Weather.com
• Marine supplies and repair facilities

"We expect this one-of-a-kind electronic kiosk to enhance our commerce in the Port Washington area by allowing boaters and visitors alike to access information on a variety of local businesses at the single touch of a button," Town of North Hempstead Supervisor Jon Kaiman said in the article.
