DISPLAY PROBLEMS IN AEROSPACE SURVEILLANCE SYSTEMS

Abstract

The over-all objective was to determine the information presentation requirements for human data processing roles in future air and aerospace surveillance systems. The conclusions and recommendations listed are based upon information gathered in a comprehensive literature search and pertinent data reflecting the present state of the art in displays and related human data processing roles. From the data available, this report provides: (1) An approach to the problem of specifying and comparing human information presentation requirements; (2) A discussion of display problems and requirements based on currently available research data; (3) A structure for the collection and use of system information requirements in determining display needs; (4) A technique (Profile Method) for use in screening and evaluating displays in terms of informational requirements; and (5) A program for future research in areas that will optimize man as a component in the system.
