A Statistical Matching Procedure to Increase Diversity of the United States Air Force Anthropometric Database

Abstract

In 2008 and 2011, the 711th Human Performance Wing collected 61 anthropometric measurements on 700 subjects for the USAF Aircrew Sizing Survey (ACSS) (Choi et al 2014). This survey was intended to replace the 1967 USAF Aircrew Anthropometric Survey, which is more than 45 years old and no longer reflected the age, gender, and racial variability of the current USAF aircrew population. Thus, the aim of ACSS was to construct an anthropometric database that did represent this variability.
