This book was released on 2018-09-29 with total page 26 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This effort was supported by the System-Wide Accident Prevention element of NASA s Aviation Safety Program. This document may serve as a first step toward the goal of integrating traffic, weather, and terrain information; it provides recommendations for a cockpit display that integrates weather information with traffic information. While some of the recommendations are general enough to be used for any type of operations, these recommendations are targeted for Federal Aviation Regulations Part 121 Operations. The document is organized in the following manner. First, weather information is discussed as an independent subject matter, and recommendations are presented for presenting weather in the cockpit. Second, traffic is discussed independently, but this discussion essentially reviews work on the display of traffic in the cockpit. Third, recommendations for the cockpit integration of weather and traffic information are discussed. Fourth, several research groups are recognized for their efforts in developing systems that are relevant to the current discussion. Finally, closing remarks provide suggestions for future efforts.

This book was released on 1997-06-01 with total page 72 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As the concept of Free Flight continues to be explored, it becomes increasingly evident that pilots must have displays that effectively depict traffic and weather information as more and more responsibility for separation from such hazards transfers from air traffic controllers to pilots. This research effort seeks to address two display design Issues: dimensionality (3D perspective versus 2D coplanar displays) and database integration (separation or integration through overlays of traffic and weather information within displays) . it was hypothesized that the 2D displays would result in fewer traffic and weather conflicts then the 3D displays, replicating the findings of Merwin and Wickens (1996) regarding traffic avoidance. As suggested by the Proximity Compatibility Principle (Wickens & Carswell, 1995), the data base integrated displays were expected to result in fewer conflicts than the separated displays for trials in which both weather and traffic were critical for maneuver choice. Finally, as revealed in Merwin and Wickens (1996), it was hypothesized that display type and scenario geometry would effect maneuver strategies. 17 general aviation flight instructors flew a series of trials with four display types in which dimensionality, database integration, and hazard geometries were manipulated. Analyses of the data revealed that the 2D displays result in a smaller percentage of conflicts with traffic and weather hazards. The results regarding database integration suggest that displays in which traffic and weather are overlaid result in fewer hazard conflicts for trials in which both hazard types are critical to maneuver selection. Display type and scenario geometry were also found to effect maneuver strategies, including a pronounced 2D advantage for trials in which the traffic is descending or ascending, while performance for level i>IL&H92H(-H1I1>

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Since the very earliest years of aviation, it was clear that human factors were critical to the success and safety of the system. As aviation has matured, the system has become extremely complex. Bringing together the most recent human factors work in the aviation domain, Advances in Human Aspects of Aviation covers the design of aircrafts for the comfort and well being of the passenger. The book discusses strategies and guidelines for maximizing comfort, the design of aircrafts including cockpit design, and the training and work schedules for flight attendants and pilots. It is becoming increasingly important to view problems not as isolated issues that can be extracted from the system environment, but as embedded issues that can only be understood as a part of an overall system. In keeping with a system that is vast in its scope and reach, the chapters in this book cover a wide range of topics, including: Interface and operations issues from the perspectives of pilots and air traffic controllers, respectively. Specific human performance issues, studied from within the context of the air transportation system Issues related to automation and the delineation of function between automation and human within the current and future system The U.S. air traffic modernization effort, called NextGen Diverse modeling perspectives and methods Safety and ethics as driving factors for change Cognition and work overload Empirical research and evaluation of the air transportation domain As air traffic modernization efforts begin to vastly increase the capacity of the system, the issues facing engineers, scientists, and other practitioners of human factors are becoming more challenging and more critical. Reflecting road themes and trends in this field, the book documents the latest research in this area.

This book was released on 2018-08-16 with total page 32 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Three experiments are described which each examine different aspects of the formatting and integration of cockpit displays of traffic information to support pilots in traffic avoidance planning. The first two experiments compared two-dimensional (coplanar) with three-dimensional (perspective) versions of a cockpit display of traffic information. In Experiment 1, 30 certified flight instructors flew a series of traffic conflict detection and avoidance maneuvers around an intruder aircraft, sometimes in the presence of a second intruder. The results revealed an advantage for the coplanar display, particularly when there was vertical intruder behavior. In Experiment 2, 17 instructors flew with the coplanar and perspective formats when weather information was either overlaid or displayed separately. Again performance was best with the coplanar display, particularly when the weather data were overlaid. The results of both experiments are also discussed in ten-ns of the traffic maneuver stereotypes exhibited by the pilots. Experiment 3 examined the benefits of the two different predictor elements used in the coplanar displays of Experiments 1 and 2. The study was carried out in a multitask context. These elements were both found to improve safety (reduce actual and predicted conflicts) and to reduce workload, although the different elements affected workload in different ways. Neither predictor element imposed a cost to concurrent task performance. Wickens, Christopher D. and Carbonari, Ron and Merwin, Dave and Morphew, Ephimia and OBrien, Janelle V.

Download or read book Cockpit Display of Data Linked Weather Information written by G-10 W Weather Information Systems Committee and published by . This book was released on 2015 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This SAE Aerospace Recommended Practice (ARP) addresses the information content for the electronic presentation of data linked weather Meteorological (MET) information used in the cockpit. It defines guidelines for the electronic presentation of MET information (including text, graphics, textures, icons, and symbology) to the flight crew.This ARP is applicable to certified equipment for the electronic display (whether installed or portable) of MET information in the cockpit. This ARP also provides a set of symbols that illustrate the depiction of data linked MET information on flight deck display systems such as Navigation Displays, Multi-function Displays, and Electronic Flight Bags. These recommendations complement standard symbology guidelines for airborne applications already in existence (see reference section for applicable documents). Weather data, information, and products are widely available today to the public as well as to the aviation community. Weather information has been provided to the cockpits of General Aviation (GA) users for several years and is now being introduced into the cockpit of commercial aircraft. Guidelines for the standardization of this information are needed to ensure the appropriate display of weather information in the cockpit to adequately address issues of workload, meteorological situation awareness, training, and information management.
