GRAPHICAL DISPLAY OF MULTIPARAMETRIC INFORMATION. PART II. EXPERIMENTAL STUDIES OF CHART DESIGN.
Abstract
Efficient operation of modern weapon systems re quires that the operator be given detailed data on system performance characteristics. Such information is frequently presented in graphic and/or tabular form. While there is substantial agreement as to the kinds of performance data required by the operator, there are few rules specifying how such data are best presented for ease and accuracy of interpretation. This report summarizes eight experiments conducted to deter mine standardized and acceptable formats for portraying multiparametric information. Factors investigated include optimum grid intervals, lin ear and non-linear functions and scales, chart complexity, and others. (Author)
