Envision - Testing Platform For User-Centered Visualization and Interaction Concepts

Abstract

ENVISION is an ongoing research project of the Osnabrück University of Applied Sciences (HSOS), the German Aerospace Center (DLR) and the software development company FREQUENTIS ORTHOGON. Within the project, a testing platform for user-centered visualization and interaction concepts is being developed. This paper discusses the methodological approach as well as basic conceptual decisions for the selection of a design process for the development of new systems. The scientific focus of this paper is on the user-centered design of future radar interfaces and Controller Working Positions (CWPs).With increasing digitalization and automation in the field of safety-critical air traffic control systems, functional adaptations and enhancements of CWPs are becoming the standard case. The interdisciplinary cooperation between air traffic controllers, software developers and usability experts outlines a procedural model for the development and testing of future cooperation with air traffic controllers and their better integration into the development process of new systems.
